fnck everything that happens during sparring (besides legitimate injuries). its meaningless. just like whjat people did in the am's. wtf !!!!!!!!!!

50-50 seems fair. now wait until their both free and put that on paper.

50/50 seems fair!? What kind of shit are you smoking? Mr. 97k ppv buys doesn't deserve anywhere near 50/50. Him and his trash team need to know their role and accept that they're the CLEAR B side to Canelo. There's been plenty of way better fighters that drew more that took concessions to make a fight. GGG likes to call other fighters businessmen and that hypocrite is one also. If he uses that he deserves 50/50 then he's the one ducking the fight. This guy is a diva and it's coming more and more to light.

If that video was ever on youtube everybody and their mama would have a copy of that video. That's like having a copy of the first Boone vs. Kovalev fight. Think about it this way. Fischer wrote that famous column about the sparring session. He was pretty neutral about what happened. If there was a video of "The G" sparring Canelo and hurting him, everybody would be talking about it.

Yeah hes lyying lol. That video would have been all over the place.

In what world is 50/50 fair? Because it isn't this one.

3g has the titles
alvy brings the cash
60/40 for alvy wouldnt be the worst deal.

just mho

whats yours ?

[GGG Gloveking]

You're confusing it with the Chavez Jr video. That was at Wild Card where Chavez Jr was training. GGG nor Canelo has trained at Wild Card so it wouldn't make sense for them to spar there. They would either spar at Big Bear, which they did, or wherever Canelo was sparring. Think about it for a minute. Don't you think if that video existed it would be all over the internet? You said you saw it last year. Just type GGG 2015 into youtube and see how many videos of GGG were made last year. That video would be the number one video on youtube.

This is the GGG vs. Chavez Jr video at wildcard

You don't have to believe me. You can believe that they took one still photo of GGG sparring Canelo. Just one photo. No video. Just one photo of Canelo missing with a punch and open for a counter but nobody took any video. I have no way to prove what I saw. Just my testimony. Thats all I have. Believe it if you want. Obviously you don't want to. Hopefully one day thw video resurfaces and you can see what Ive already seen. For some reason, Im going to come fabricating a story about a sparring session that was photographed but not videotaped. A story about a guy that handed his belt over to the other guy. That as your picture shows, missed and was about to get countered. I have no proof, just what I saw. Im done.

this isnt strictly a popularity contest. yes, alvy is the name but 3g has the titles. no matter what people say, titles do mean something. every sport has its thing that they play for. id go 60/40 for alvy but anything less would be an insult to 3g. and im an alvy fan.

The only video is of the jcc jr vs ggg sparring session where Golovkin handled Jr. The Canelo spar was apparently very good even according to GGG who said that was the best guy theyve put infront of him. There are accounts of him either hurting Canelo or that Canelo's leg stiffened/cramped and he had to walk that off. Some people say their sparring was evenish with GGG maybe having got the best of the young Nelo but they stopped putting them in against each other. I dont recall if it was the case of them going to fight each other or the sparring being too spirited for Canelo's corner. As far as I know with Canelo it wasn't a run him out the gym type thing like with Angulo lol.

I don't think you're lying. I just think you have your videos confused. You said if they took pictures they had to take a video. But then you say it happened at Wildcard but those pictures are from Big Bear. That's the one and only time they've sparred. The reasons there are pictures is because they probably told them no video only flash photography.

You gotta read the whole interview. You can tell GGG is tired of Canelo's shit and he aint playing nice anymore. This is the first time I've heard of him saying he hurt Canelo in sparring. I've always suspected it but never heard "the G" admit it. I like this "G" character better than the good boy

The comments @GGGBoxing provided me when I turned the camera off are incredible. Story coming soon to @latimessports ...

“Canelo, he’s talking too much. He’s not smart, not respectful of people,” Golovkin said. “Everybody wants to watch this fight. He’s just scared.”

That feeling dates to sparring sessions that Golovkin had with Alvarez a few years ago in Big Bear, when Golovkin said he hammered Alvarez with a body punch that hurt the Mexican fighter and brought anguish to trainer Eddy Reynoso.

“Canelo and [promoter] Golden Boy — everybody around Canelo — understands, and they’re all scared,” Golovkin said. “He’s their Golden Child. If he’s finished, no money from him, no business.”

“He’s saying September’s the best date,” Golovkin said. “Maybe he’ll fight [Antonio] Margarito, maybe [Manny] Pacquiao or blah, blah, blah before then.

“It’s too much talk from Canelo. He’s not serious. Everybody understands it. People understand that G’s ready and Canelo’s not. He’s under pressure.”

Told of Golovkin’s comments, Golden Boy Promotions executive Eric Gomez told The Times, “We’re going to do our best to make the fight and that’s all I can say. We’ll make our best effort. We want the fight. Canelo wants the fight.”

That’s a comment that will be repeated as the September 2017 date nears, said Golovkin, maintaining that the delay is rooted more in fear than the greed-driven motivation that built the Floyd Mayweather Jr.-Manny Pacquiao bout into the richest fight in history.

“The next step is for Canelo to say, ‘I’m ready. I’m size A, [Golovkin] is size B, and I’ll give him $2 million,’” Golovkin predicted. “Then, [Alvarez] can say, ‘What? He won’t take that? He’s not ready? I’m ready.’

“It’s a 50-50 fight, but that’s what he’s going to do. It’s a game to him.”

Golovkin is clearly not the star, yet Alvarez, a junior middleweight fighter who has never fought over 155lbs, is supposed to not only give Golovkin the full six pounds, he's also supposed to split the money even, with a guy who clearly doesn't draw money? gtfoh.

It's a shame that no one ever gets around to asking Golovkin about that whole anyone 154-168 bull****.

Look, I'm a fan of GGG and think Canelo is a *****, but if GGG is really demanding 50-50, he simply doesn't want the fight.

Canelo's last PPV, which was ****, did like 4x what GGG's did. GGG is a good draw, but Canelo is as least three times the star GGG is and that proof is in the numbers. If Golovkin wont accept 65-35 or even 70-30, he DOESNT want the fight and that's real.

I mean, beat Canelo's ass on PPV, take your 30 percent, and continue your prolific run as unified middleweight champ. Because the alternative (fighting nobodies because everyone's a *****) is not a good career move.

I like his attitude War Golovkin
