G made the right choice though. Immediately say no to Ward, and face tomato cans until some one more than just an opponent is mandatory and cash in. Look at Kov, he is done, completely broken. And he is two divisions bigger than G. Now G gets his payday against the only big name he has a real chance to beat. Still would put money on Canelo, but G played his hand right. Why not take fights for a mill a piece against guys like Wade and Rubio and Nelson?
This should be a good fight, but there is no way to compare this to Hagler-Hearns and those great fights of that era. Hearns lost to Leonard in a classic, which in todays 12 round era he probably would have won. Canelo got humiliated by Mayweather. Canelo was swinging at air and eating right hands the whole fight. It was literally a boxing clinic. Canelo is a very good fighter, and so is G. Hearns and Hagler are all-time greats, true legends of the sport. There is no comparison.
