Is Golovkin the biggest con job in boxing? I think so

[Joe Beamish]

If Golovkin beats Canelo, a lot of people around here will be saying how crappy Canelo is. That I know for sure.

Funny thing is, people call GGG a hype job, yet when asked who beats him, the only consistent answer is Ward. And that's with them fighting at Ward's weight

OMG give it a rest.. are you OCD? The fight is going to happen. What's the point of these pointless threads you keep spewing out.

Exactly. Threads like these are a preemptive strike because it's dawning on the Anybody But Golovkin gang that Canelo is going to lose.

guy makes a name beating up C Level MWs and JR MWs....

guy tries to con public into thinking the brook fight was accidental when it was a setup the whole time....not once did the mention degale to hearn

guy fights legit MW with some talent and struggles

guys legacy fight hes been waiting for is a 27 year old kid with 0 wins at MW

the guy even admits all of canelos opponents are small

He isn't a con job and he never tried to con anybody. He is the best middleweight in the world and he has proven it time and time again. You call the guys he beat C level as if you are a teacher grading student's test papers. He beat champions and top contenders so they aren't C level. Guys he beat like Monroe and Lemieux continue to win fight after fight.He tried to fight Martinez and Cotto but they refused to fight him so how is that his fault? So Jacobs gave him a hard fight? So what? Jacobs was a champion and probably the 2nd best middleweight in the world. Just because he didn't KO Jacobs like he KOed all the others doesn't make him a hype job or less of a fine middleweight champion. Now you are trying to **** on his next opponent Canelo in advance calling him a 27 year old kid. Wake up to reality. A 27 year old boxer is in the middle of his prime years and as fast and strong as he ever will be. He ain't no kid. Canelo has been a pro since age 15 and he is on everybody's top 10 PFP list so a win over Canelo is a damn good win no matter what you say. Why should GGG be fighting DeGale when his clearly stated goal is to rule the middleweights? You just hate GGG as many do for some reason or another. You will continue to trash him no matter who he beats or how he beats them. GGG is a hell of a fighter who fears no middleweight and loses to no middleweight. I am proud to be a GGG fan.

Was his amateur pedigree a conjob too?

Floyd built his career on guys coming up in weight, big names that were well past their prime, trashing his opponents resumes, making people think that no-hopers like Ortiz, Guerrero, Berto were legit challenges. Ducking dangerous opponents in their prime. Whatever you are accusing GGG of, you can double and triple down on that with Floyd. Biggest con job in boxing since Ali.

Of course, they were a bunch of amateurs

GGG is the mr perfect of boxing right now. He's got it all.

You state this a bit strongly perhaps, but I pretty much agree.

Ali got some freebies from the judges (too often), but he certainly took on some great opponents in their prime. Can't say the same for Floyd by any means.
