    Now make Canelo 35 years old and GGG 27. Canelo would tire in 4 rounds and take a massive beating. Or make them both 32.

      we have no idea what Canelo will look like at 35..GGG is clearly better at 35 then he was at 27

          I'd bet one of my nuts that Canelo's stamina would be far worse. To me GGG was clearly best at 32 and his body looks middle-age at 35. The muscle and skin tone arent there anymore.

            The Canelo of today wasn't ready for a 35 year old Golovkin.

              Yes his body looked better at 32, but his comp also got much better

              He looked more then ready to me, i think he overrated GGG in there and cheated himself to be honest

                GGG 3 years ago would have stopped him 100 %, hes done now. Would probably lose to charlo if they fought next.

                  Yeah, thats what I've been saying. Two things factor in and comp is clearly part of it.

                    The party is just getting started! What age would Lil’G have ever beaten Ward at any fantasy weight!

                    Or another one! Cause everybody swore on Pirog... how would a “prime” GGG have done against a 2017 Jacobs?!

                    “If we were not expected to do it why would we?” -Abel on advanced drug testing, before he IBF or WBC straps! What could GGG have been on back in the day like his boys Povetkin or Klitschko, before Meldonium was banned...

                    I mean if Holyfield got caught suspect, it’s not hard to believe that the Bîtchko’s were on stuff

                      Fighters develop at different points in their careers. GGG at 27 would lose to the Canelo of now, by a mile. I think his peak was 30 to 33, when he was crashing all those cans. There's a reason GBP and Canelo avoided him at that time.

                      In their fight, I was rooting for Canelo, just a little, and thought the decision could go either way.

                      The rematch will be better.
