Does Canelo vs Golovkin 2 on Cinco de Mayo do better business than the first fight?

    However, I think it will do bigger numbers because of the event and how many Mexican fans will tune in.

    Canelo needs to fight like a Mexican warrior, but will he?
    Canelo did what he could in his 4th weight class and was the smaller guy.

    Brits love such facts.

    The real question is, wil Gennady land when Nelo invites him to the ropes or is he just going to look like an old JCC trying to act like a jab with a horrid compubox is going to win him the fight?!

      Canelo started at 140? Hhmm. I didn't know that.

      I felt like something was off there, honestly. He gets to the ropes and forgets how to do anything. He landed one solid right hand and Canelo took it well, but I thought he'd light him up. And where was the body attack? Pretty strange, which is why I was disappointed.

        Lil’G’s jab can break down a lot of fighters not at elite status. It gives Lil’g To do his game plan if the opponent isn’t ready for it. Stevens took Gennady’s jab rather well, it was Gennady’s power shots that folded Stevens completely. With a more complete fighter in Alvarez, who’s power will also make Gennady mindful, we got what we saw. Skills appreciate skills.

        Canelo’s intuition and shot compilation as well... I mean no fighter has took Lil’G to that level, keep in mind Golovkin had already ranked Canelo in the top 5 p4p back in 2013. Ask me for the video link, it’s an interview with ESnews with wakter sanoi.

        It’s just trolling to overlook that Canelo is a really good fighter with great reflexive mobility. He should be invested in for future fights and bookies.

        Alvarez vs Eubank Jr. is a mega fight brewing, unless of course Loeffler and HBO don’t hit it first as they tried before. Eubank is growing and getting more better.

        Alvarez vs Eubank Jr. is huge. Could topple Barrera Nas or Floyd Hatton

          There was nothing intriguing about the first fight. If it wasn't for the draw no one would care no matter who won.

            I don't buy that G was wary of getting countered on the ropes I think there was some backhand payments going on to ensure interest in a big bucks rematch. I to thought it strange G didn't press nelo on the ropes it seemed forced the jab at times I could see him just wanting to unleash combos. I think the real talent of the fight was golovkin keeping a handle on muscle memory and selectively holding back at times throughout the contest.

              I think Canelo did start at 140, but he was like 15 back then. Floyd's mask just wants to make it seem like Canelo is a natural 140 lb. guy getting bullied by 160 lb. GGG.

              Canelo at 140 was similar to Pac debuting at 108 or whatever. Both growing boys still.

                Ggg was not worried about the counter upstairs because he clearly was not scared of canelo's power. he took it without any problems. wasn't canelo countering ggg upstairs anyway? so why wouldn't he go to the body?


                there were definitely arrangements made.

                  if that is the case then ggg and canelo are corrupted fighters, you shouldnt be a a fan of a corrupted fighter...

                    it's not about being a fan or not. that is not the topic.

                    people are saying GgG is scared of Canelo's power upstairs when videos like this exist.




                    Why is Ggg still walking forward?

                      Nelo a “natural” 140lb fighter? Men stop growing by 18 give or take. The point of that context if we play your angle is that Barrera or PAC were bullied by other fighters as they moved up? Lol.

                      The point of bringing up multiple weight elites is that they disk that beg that 154-168 was easy. Golovkin won Silver at Middleweight and then continued to fights in the ams.

                      Nelo is the better fighter. Don’t worry, many Olympians been KO’d
