    Does anyone really wanna see GGG vs Monroe again? If Monroe beats BJS, being undisputed now becomes a non-event

Monroe had a few moments, ggg shook his head and proceeded to put pressure on him not really wasting punches. He didn't just got on to win the fight, he didn't lose rounds. Then he destroyed him. For **** sakes people are funny.
      But are you saying that Golovkin didn't go sloppy from the second round onwards ? He was swinging for the fences with sub-standard technique and defence. If you ask the question 'can Golovkin maintain proper technique and defence ?' when he wants to, he showed vs Lemieux and Jacobs that he can, and it would surprise me a lot if he went Monroe with Canelo. Point being the Monroe performance is only meaningful if he doesn't know any other way to fight, or can't stop himself going that way, and to date we have seen he has more discipline when the situation requires it. Also, if he goes Monroe with Canelo, he plays into Canelo's hands imo.

          If you can't get GGG to respect your power he's just going to go after you. Monroe isn't a big puncher and after feeling his best he just said whatever and switched from boxing to brawling. I really do believe some of the punches he gets hit by are a result of him wanting to put on a show. I don't see him doing this vs Canelo tho, I think we'll see him keeping his distance and actually boxing.

            Even if both Monroe and Canelo win we won't see that fight. Last year Chepo mentioned they weren't interested in someone with Monroe's style because you have to keep chasing him in order to catch him, or something to that effect. Funny, GGG made it look pretty simple.

                Monroe Jr. is on record for being envious of Lara... just like Quillin being envious of Lara because they are all Cuban.

                Monroe Jr. is technically a downgrade of Lara

                    thats cause canelo is strictly a counter puncher. he cant fight going fowards just like marquez. this was the reason floyd took the fight. he knew it would be easy picking off his attacks since thats not his style. also why each guy threw like 10 punches a round

                      This is why Canelo holding MW belts would be terrible for boxing. He's never taking on Jacobs, Charlo etc...
