Comments Thread For: Canelo Meets With Golden Boy: Golovkin Fight is a Priority

[Shadoww702]

The difference is Nelo has been at super welterweight and schmiddleweight(155) for sometime now, where there is a ton of hungry lions, a ton of great match ups..he has chosen the worst ones..Lara beat him and even the famed mexican trainer nacho said cotto beat him too..Golovkin fights in arguably one of boxings top 3 weakest divisions..the reason why fans have been clamoring for him to move up in weight..people arent asking nelo to move up they are asking him to fight the best at his division..and to an extent Golovkin has done that..it isnt a persons fault in what era and the level of comp that they face in their natural weight class

Your high as a kite if you think Cotto beat him. And Lara beat him??? Lara made Canelo a bloody mess. I'm surprised Canelo didnt get KTFO with how many blows Lara landed??? Good god that was a beatdown Lara gave Canelo!!!! Do u even score body blows??? Or do u ignore them and think they're not sht like casual fans do???

And the haters said Canelo was scared LOL!! Once again Goldenboy Promotions coming through with the top fights, the biggest stars and coward-free corruption-free Boxing.

Nothing LOL about it Lou, Canelo has already given the belt away and run back down to 154 rather than fight GGG. Damage has already been done. Actions speak louder than words.

Need I remind you the whole 'Mexicans don't **** around' speech, before he bent over and let GGG have his way with him. What makes you think this will be any different.

Canelo, or at least Goldenboy, are scared of this fight. Understandable. Canelo is like $100,000 dollars worth of chips, and GGG is the roulette table. Does Oscar stick the whole $100k on red, or does he walk away from the casino rich?

Regardless of that, I actually think Canelo has a good shot in this fight. Canelo is a huge step up from any fighter GGG has faced so far in his career. He has skills, power, is a great combination puncher and his defense is underrated. GGG relies on being able to walk through shots and bully his opponent, is that going to work against Canelo? He's a big hitting, strong, accurate puncher. He will tag GGG far easier than GGG will tag him if he can keep the fight in the centre of the ring.

Canelo's downfall is he can be a little lead-footed. Which isn't good as he needs movement to keep himself away from the ropes and GGG cutting off the ring. Either that or he needs to use his strength to bully GGG into keeping the fight in the middle of the ring, tying him up and pushing him backwards.

I hope it happens.

I never said that cotto won, I said nacho said he did, in other worda he could not convincingly beat a washed up cotto..however i do feel lara beat him..not a casual fan and I dont remember lara being bloody..i would have to assume that u also felt kov beat ward because u neglected to see his body shots land on kov..nelo may have landed body shots but not enough to win in my opinion lara outboxed him

Talk is cheap. Make it happen or shut your trap.

Bwuhahahaha

Let's examine Canelo for a moment

Beaten nobody

Struggled with Trout who is now supposedly shot

Schooled by Floyd

Struggled with Lara who struggled with Vanes

Tried to drag Cotto up to 157 before refusing to fight GGG at any weight LMFAO

Khan LMFAO

Smith LMFAO

Shameless ducking of GGG whom I dont even rate

Carrot top is a clown, managed by a ***** and representative of everything wrong with boxing today

trout was at his peak when canelo fought him and they said he woudnt fight him, they said the same thing about lara that he would duck lara and he fought and beat him also, the cotto fight was a catchweight fight to begin with cotto wasnt gonna fight at 160 , the kahn and smith fight was a better fight than ggg vs brook..let me know how the jacobs vs ggg negotiations are coming along...YDKSAB

To be honest with you, I think Canelo would have already fought him by now if GB wasn't trying to milk it for more... Canelo hasn't really ducked anyone (although he could have fought more young, dangerous guys at 154). He has an impressive resume for someone who is 26 years old... I think he is now at a point where he is forcing GB to move forward eith making that fight. In May, he takes BJS's belt. In September, we get the showdown for undisputed MW champ. Let's make it happen..

Canelo already has a Majority Decison loss to Mayweather so it's not like he has a record to protect. I don't think he ducked GGG they just wanted to build the fight a little more so it will generate enough cash to pay the purses these guys will expect for fighting each other. People like us know GGG but casual fans dont know him yet. Oscar is a real promoter not a buffoon like these flash in the pan "promoters" throwing big money around "making it rain" before they develop their fighters and events. Boxing is not a rap concert supported by a bunch of brainless consumers wearing $300 sneakers taking the bus to the venue. Jay Z, 50 Cent, Haymon, Floyd Sinclair etc etc are all learning this the hard way. Oscar and Canelo are doing things right

GGG vs Canelo would have been a HUGE fight last Sept. The boxing world was on fire talking about it ..... next Sept?

Who knows? GGG is already 34 yo. Canelo still hasn't fought a legit MW without a catchweight.

What if one or both of them loses before next Sept?
