Why does a win over Alvarez matter if he's a "bum"?

[WesternChamp]

No, all fans are not like this. Its primarily the very worst Manny/GGG fans .

Go back and check when Manny fought Tim the 2nd time. Prior to the fight being signed they were pissed Manny got robbed (which is understandable) so they said Tim was a bum that didn't deserve his #3 p4p ranking. Soonn as the fight got signed, they started talking tim up again.

Check how bigdramshow and others talked about Jacobs before the fight was signed as well. I think a couple of posters have sigged how he changed his tune.

stfu nuggah! like the floyd fans wasnt saying pac was easy money, one dimensional, doesnt know how to cut off the ring? since you wanna bring up which fan base are the worst, the floyd fans always diss floyd's opponent before a fight, yet you wanna say not all fan base does this? LOL!!!

I dont get into being a fan of anyone. I love boxing period. Thats the problem on here.

That said. To be fair. Jacobs exposed how a man of equal talents & size deals with the talent of GGG. What he exposed as well, thats going to be a factor in canelos fight too is youth.
The only mystery in this new fight coming up is how Canelo deals with a heavy punch, which if it does dramatically effect him will only make him box more and we all have seen that GGG has problems with good boxers. If Canelo chooses to brawl for some reason. Hes playing GGG's game and thats the only way G can win.

Good first sentence. Too many emotional fanboys here and it ruins the experience.

Anyway, i agree with your post but i also think GGG is a bit of an underrated boxer when it comes to the technical part. I think he can win in a few different ways but i think he figures that out as the fight goes on, he adjusts and that's what good fighters should do. I don't think Brook made him look bad, i think he wanted to get Brook out of there ASAP and he knew Brook had no power so he said **** it.

Jacobs was a different story but even with him, GGG figured it out. Jacobs was bigger and more athletic but GGG found a way to win. A bit of an ugly fight but 7-5 or 8-4 for GGG is correct. I don't really care what people say about him not being able to KO Jacobs or whatever because you can't KO everybody and Jacobs has turned into a good fighter.

In my opinion, this fight will be very technical and i don't expect it to be an all out war, too much to lose for both guys. I just hope the decision is right for whoever wins

Have you still not realized that this forum is full of trolls and even regular posters tend to totally exaggerate or put out ridiculous stuff from time to time? Maybe 10% of the posts here in recent years can even be taken seriously. It's more comedy, drama, entertainment and trolling around.

You're one of the worst. **** off back to twitter where you beg to be noticed by Steve Kim, Michael Montero and Dan Rafael.

wasnt madiana suppose to be a bum? a punching bag? low IQ? but when floyd signed to fight him, all of a sudden, chino is a different fighter now, robert garcia did a good job with him, damm chino throws some dangerous weird punches that gets through to his opponents.

Uhh, the Manny fight turned out to be extremely easy money. I don't think you can dispute that.

The manny fans did call him a bum and said he was overrated because they were angry Manny had turned down the no ppv deal. They also posted he only got the fight because he beat Broner, which was in part correct.

People said chino did a good job with him after the 1st fight because of how that fight went. I dont see how you could disagree with that either.

[BattlingNelson]

Not in the top 10.

Ok. Who are you rating above Golovkin?

So? I am very interested. Please post those 10+ boxers. It doesnt have to be in order.

According to many GGG fans the fight was a must before it got made. Now that it has been made, well... hmmm, they don't know where to go aside from in circles when discussing the situation.

Some GGG fanatics claim their idol is over the hill now and accuse Alvarez of picking on an old man. However, not long ago they were claiming that Golovkin had taken little to no damage throughout his career and thus he could have an extremely long and legendary run due to his freshness and defensive wizardry.

Before the fight was announced they proudly stated that Jacobs lost every way possible in their fight and that Golovkin's masterclass shined that night. Today they say that Golovkin began showing slippage in that fight, a display of decline so significant it gave Alvarez the courage to finally make the fight.

Before the fight was made many claimed Alvarez would never fight GGG. "Oh no, GGG big drama show. Canyellow will duck like everyone else", they said. Once the contract got signed they began to claim that Alvarez didn't make the fight because he was genuinely interested, but because he was boxed in by GGG's amazing management and fans.

When Alvarez sold "low" ppv's against lesser name opposition they claimed he was far from a star and laughed at them. When GGG didn't even manage to sell half of Saul's "low" numbers on ppv they reeled in UK ppv's, thus proving to the world that GGG was a global star.

When Alvarez moved towards the ropes in his fights and got hit, he was exposed. When GGG got hit flush by smaller or lesser opposition with power punches it was because he allowed it to happen. GGG sacrificed his defense in order to create drama and excite the fans.

When GGG sold low ppv's it was a disgusting realization to many that the sport was dead. When Alvarez is rumored to have sold 1 million or so PPV's against Chavez it's the worst possible thing that could have happened. Now the sport is definitely dead because the casuals will definitely turn away. High PPV numbers = death of the sport.

For many Alvarez will get destroyed, brutalized, massacred, bludgeoned, etc... by Golovkin. No way around it. The ginger has his coming and boy oh boy, it will be bad.

But, what significance would a win for Golovkin hold? I mean... Alvarez killed boxing by turning the causal fans away after this past Saturday, so the transfer of power would be incomplete or lacklustr. Alvarez waited for GGG to get old, so even if he wins Golovkin wouldn't have long left in the sport due to his age. Alvarez has been exposed by Trout, Lara, Cotto, Khan and Smith before, so a win over him holds little to no weight. Especially since Golovkin is light years ahead of the fraud, skillwise and in talent.

So what does Golovkin gain from beating another bum? Alvarez is a cowardly, sport killing, fraudulent bum whom waited for the sport's most feared man to become a grandpa over night before taking him on. So again, what will Golovkin earn from this guaranteed victory?

Because these low I.Q village peasants don't know anything about boxing. All they know is Triple Flop and Borat. Where the phuck is kaztarzan at tho?


Phuck the Flopsters; they can all die slow.

so you just proved my point that every fan based talk shiiet about the other opponent LOL! that was easy.

what the hell are you even talking about? "the manny fan did call him a bum"? thats what they floyd fans was saying about maidana before floyd fought him.

chino was a bum before floyd signed to fight him. nobody is talking about what was said after the fight. before chino was even consider as an opponent for floyd, chino was a bum. when floyd announced that he's gonna be fighting maidana instead of khan, the floyd fans started saying chino is a different fighter now.

People said chino did a good job with him after the 1st fight because of how that fight went. I dont see how you could disagree with that either.

funny floyd fans switching up.

[uppercut510]

Jacobs was a bum in their opinion too but he became elevated after the win

[The Big Dunn]

funny floyd fans switching up.

WTF? I answered your question by pointing out how easy the fight was. How is that talking **** about a fighter?

No, that was the Manny fans who were mad Chino was getting the fight. Most floyd fans said nothing about Maidana before the fight other than Floyd should dominate him once he won the poll.
