Comments Thread For: Golovkin: I'm Not Small Like Canelo's Opponents, I Want KO Win!

[Streetglide]

Team Golovkin were chasing Brook for years. Brook was plan A and they made a deal after Hearn wouldn't allow Eubanks to fight him.

Canelo offered GGG the fight and he didn't want it but now due to public pressure Golovkin finally took the fight. Canelo has been waiting on him for a couple years now.

Golovkin just ducked Saunders and he is going to duck Charlo. He has been cherry picking his whole career. Bumlovekin.

Anything i missed?

Yeah, you missed the part of carrot head ducking GGG for years...

I think you entered a conversation in which you don't know the context. I'm not saying Canelo is better than GGG! Canelo has fought better boxers than GGG. 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!

You're all over the place. We are talking about movement.


Canelo does not move well and G will find him.

I'm not sure if you know this but when we use the word small in boxing we are not referring to hieght but body frame. Tyson is only 5'10 yet he's able to compete at the heavyweight division, because he's not small.

I do but their is also ideal height sizes for each and every weight class. Sure their are a few odd sizes but majority hit this Mark. I've seen trainers all the time stere fighters from one weight class to another based on their size and not what they want.

I mean GGG feels best at 160 but he could EASILY make 168.

Did Canelo look weight drained to you when he fought Liam Smith at 154?? Now picture GGG or Jacobs making 154???

Canelo trainer already said they struggled to make weight the past couple of fights.

there is a reason why he fought at 155.

I doubt 1 lb was killing him that much?? Again I thought he looked good at 154 and I couldn't imagine either GGG or Jacobs making 154 without looking terribly sick.

Trainers say stuff all the time. GGG's said some BEYOND crazy sht.

End of the day the fights at 160 so why is everyone crying???

[Shadoww702]

A massive Trout barely beat Cotto. Murray beat Martinez by a similar margin, the difference is Murray was robbed, Sturm fight he won clearly. Trout is sht, I like the guy, but he's just not that good.

Matthysse never won a major belt neither, you gonna tell me he's not a much dangerous and better fighter than Trout? "Oh, Trout beat Cotto doe"

??? Cotto only won like 1 round against Trout.

Murray didnt beat Sergio?? Sergio also broke his hand in that fight As well as had a BUM knee. In case you forgot that fight was outdoors in the rain.

You bring up Matty? Remind me who is best win was and then who was Murreys??

And since your SUPER SLOW... the worst Charlo bros man handled Rosado almost every round and BUSTED him up. The Bigger, better bros went life and death with Trout. Most felt he won. And Charlo was BOO'd

We weren't talking about anything. You commented on something I posted in reply to someone else. I didn't comment on who I think would win the fight, nor did I talk about Canelo's movement. I simply stated that although Canelo has fought smaller guys, he's faced better fighters @ 155 and below, than GGG has faced @ 160.

Maybe, but I'm not sure how much good this does Canelo against Golovkin. Yes, past-prime little Cotto is a better career fighter than anyone who has stepped up to face Golovkin. But so what? Does this mean Golovkin wouldn't whup Cotto bad at 160? Do you think Cotto survives 12 rounds against Golovkin?

Canelo has faced one "better fighter" who totally skunked him, BTW. How does this help him against Golovkin?

And has Canelo ever faced a truly dangerous fighter?

[kushking]

Holy crap!!!! Exactly how did Golovkin "force" Rosado to move up to middleweight. Did he use a gun or hire some thugs to break Rosado legs if he refused to move up. Dude we all know you don't like Golovkin but your getting carried away.
Taken from Boxing News
Gabriel Rosado turns down catchweight for Golovkin fight: 'I will beat him at his best'

41
Gabriel Rosado says he never asked for a catchweight to face middleweight titlist Gennady Golovkin, and has officially rejected a maximum weight of 158 pounds to fight at the full 160-pound weight limit.

Context,have you heard of it? Ggg is claiming canelo fights lil guys & bums but ggg fought a jmm (lets call him no hoper cause I like rosado but he's hopeless) with 5 losses at middleweight he could've fought him at 155 cw,& Rosado saying that means nothing,thats like brook saying the same,gggs own words"I dont fight cw thats disrespectful to the sport" despite it benefitting his opponents,ggg wasn't ever going to fight anyone below mw & u know it.

[mathed]

GGG forgot his own opponents came from 147 and 154.

Yeah, Jacobs came up in weight to face lil g alright, just like Murray, Geale, and Monroe Jr did.
