A spectacular middleweight win, over a welterweight opponent.
"but how much did they weighted on fight night doe"
It doesn't matter. How many fights did Brook have at the weight in order for him to actually be comfortable in it?
Point is, GGG did what he was supposed to do against a fighter whom had his best career win two divisions south and had never fought at 160. Sadly he didn't look "spectacular" while doing it and exposed several flaws in his game.Comment

Enough flaws for Canelo to sack up, or does he need more evidence?A spectacular middleweight win, over a welterweight opponent.

Errol SpenceThe context is CURRENT fighters. I wrote that in the post.
Tyson is great company to be in. your initial dismissal that every boxer can throw those punches is absolutely dunce. I hope you've realized that when you have to reach back in another era to find another offensive juggernaut.Comment

It's the biggest fight in boxing, not happening cause one guy and his team feel badly about his chances. Wondering if this was enough to give them the confidence, or more needed.Comment

It could be enough to convince them to take the fight, but then again we also need to consider all the other dilemma's that tag alongsid such a big fight in
the sport. We need to remember that GGG wants a 50/50 deal, something that Canelo and his team would never even consider. I think the catch weight can eventually be a thing of the past, especially since Alvarez is getting bigger as time passes and he won't have any other option but to fight at 160.
I think there are many more variables at the moment than just Canelo being too afraid of taking the fight. I think it's a cluster of demands on both sides mixed in with their self entitling diva like attitudes and big mouths. I hope the fight happens soon, especially since Golovkin is aging and a win over him would mean much less if he's seen as past prime. Also, a win for Golovkin would garner him short lived glory since he would also have gotten his first notable win over a top rated opponent at an advanced age. It's a lose/lose situation for Golovkin the longer it drags on.Comment

He's definitely got many tools. I remember one point in the first or second where he did one little nudge to Kell's chest to get him on the ropes. I had to appreciate that. When a guy can put his opponent where he wants them, he'll win all night.End of.
He went in there and straight mugged Kell lastnight. I don't care Kell was hitting him with cute lil choco brownies. He got mowed down to 1 arm dangling on the rope accepting his fate Raging bull style.
We know for a fact GGG can
1. box behind a jab (ex: Lemiux) and his amature pedigree
2. put his head on your chest and fight on the inside with short punches (ex: Ouma)
3. JCC emulation with ring coverage and beat you from the distance. (ex: Geale, Rosado, Stevens)
4. Straight up Antonio Margarito zombie mode (ex: Kell)Comment
