Also, GGG shouldn't criticize Canelo for fighting "smaller" guys, because GGG has waited for "smaller" guys to enter his weight class, but has yet to move to a higher weight class himself, not to mention that he ducked Andre Ward!

I don't understand why you don't get it.....
the 153lb SUPERSTAR Miguel Cotto - rightly or wrongly -
stated that all of his future middleweight fights would happen at catchweight.....
.... so when Mr "anyone from 154-168" shat the bed by totally refusing to negotiate on weight with Cotto, he walked away from that fight
..... oh, and then he RAN away from that fight by accepting step-aside money
the B-side Golovkin, did NOTHING to make that fight happen, he literally made it impossible..... so yea, good luck blaming the SUPERSTAR Cotto
which leaves us with the golden question.....
...... why did Mr "anyone from 154-168" totally refuse to negotiate on weight with lil old faded 153lb Cotto..... despite being more than happy to offer Gabe Rosado a 158lb catchweight..... ?

Andre ward is naturally a good 15 pounds bigger than GGG... that’s a huge size difference and he brings 0 money to the table, why the hell would GGG fight him?

Gotta love the people who **** on GGG for fighting Brook but demand he fight Ward. One is atrocious but the other seems to be ok? I never agreed with the Brook fight and never liked the 164 cw with Ward. But it's funny seeing people become advocates for something they supposedly hate, which is looking down in weight instead of up.

Originally posted by IlikeBikeTython View PostNo we don't all know that. Be serious. You and one of your friends, plus Danny Jacobs and Andre Rozier doesn't equal a majority. The result wasn't even close to being a robbery. It was a tough close fight, but GGG outlanded Jacobs, controlled the fight with his jab, and landed the only knockdown. And I don't remember the exact number on this but I believe something like 18 out of 20 sports writers ringside who were polled had GGG winning. I thought Jacobs looked great, put up a tough fight, but he did look to me like he was fighting to finish the fight without getting knocked out. He wasn't aggressive enough to give himself a chance to win. Because of the fact he was tentative he allowed GGG to control the fight with his jab, allowed GGG to Outland him. And like I mentioned earlier, him suffering the only knockdown in the fight didn't help his cause either. All in all it seems that 90% of rational boxing fans agreed GGG won a close fight. Of course Jacobs thought he won, you usually expect a fighter to say they thought they won when it's a close fight. But Jacobs tainted his own fight scoring skills a bit when he said publicly that he had Broner winning against Garcia lol
