    He's supposed to be so great,he should rematch him..like Floyd did in his close fight.

    Floyd gets hammered by people like you for being a businessman...yet here you are being a hypocrite on behalf of GGGift.
    GGG is getting older. Wasting time on Jacobs makes no sense what so ever. He has saunders and Canelo which would make more money.

    If Floyd had a higher money option he would take that route. Fighting maidana/casillo twice made sense financially, as the fans liked maidanas agressive nature and style.

      The situations are completely different. Both GGG and Floyd are going for the higher money option, that's the only similarity. Floyd fighting madiana and castillo again made the most sense at the time. Maidana sold a lot of tickets as he is exciting.

      Stop assuming the situations are identical as they are very different in nature.

        I thought GGG was a warrior and not a businessman like the hated Mayweather.??

        Canelo is not going to let GGift get rich off his name

        He does not need Golovkin

          Staying in the amateurs for over 300 fights makes no sense either...

          Turning down 10-15 million to fight 5'7 Canelito makes even less sense.

          At least Floyd had SENSE to know when he was NOT the A side.

            I wonder why that is????

            You said yourself that you LIKE overt racists....maybe that's your way of flirting with them and trying to their friends.
            That's waaaaay over the top toward someone just for the fact they scored a fight properly.

            GGG won, was coming forward the whole fight landing a stiff jab at will. Why does it hurt so much? It amuses/interests me in sports in general. People develop these deeep connection to something they are so far away from in every way. Is it a race thing? Cultural thing? Or just a going against the grain thing.

              Coming forward and landing stiff jabs is not the same as winning a fight.

              The race thing is the only reason you like GGift...

              If he were American(of a certain hue)....at his age...with that resume.....I'm positive you would not be a fan.

                  True. And this fight wasn't particularly hard to score. Basically 6 clear rounds for Floyd 3 clear rounds for Castillo and 3 close rounds. Of the three close rounds it's really almost impossible to find all 3 for Castillo which is what he'd need for a draw.

                  I honestly thought Madaina came closer to winning his first fight with Mayweather than Castillo did. I can find a 6th round for Madaina if he really gets the benefit of the doubt, can't find it for Castillo. And that's just for a draw.

                    Notice everyone who screams Floyd lost can never give you a round by round scorecard...I literally just did this..
