Comments Thread For: Teddy Atlas: Canelo Might Beat 'Overrated' Golovkin Easy!

[Snoop Frog]

"I thought Golovkin won that fight. I thought it was a joke [that it was scored a draw]. I'm not saying that everything Golovkin did was right. I don't think that you should be penalized because you didn't fight as good as people thought you should. If you win - you win, and that's all it should be," Atlas told SiriusXM Radio's At The Fights.

Agree with Teddy here. The OG landed more punches in 10 of 12 rounds.

I've got Canelo in the rematch by close decision. He's in his prime and OG is on the downside, so I think Canelo improves more than OG.

Hahahaha, spot on, bro. Atlas, saying "Golovkin is overrated" but giving him the victory at the same time, doesn't realize how heavily he hurts Canelo's reputation - so it means, prime Canelo lost to 35 years old, past his prime and "overrated" boxer.

+1

Lost in all the criticism of GGG is that the overrated and flawed GGG drew (I think won) against a great fighter.

So you used to like GGG until other people started lionizing him beyond your comfort level? Do you always let the opinions of other people define your personal preferences? I ask you this - why did you like GGG before the media/fan-boys got into your head??? This is a bizarre post if I’ve ever read one.

it became insufferable

then they start throwing BETTER fighters under a bus

which is even more insufferable

I would rather listen to Teddy say that Golovkin is over-rated (seeing that he waited his entire career for big fights and then fell short when he finally got them)..... than I would listen to Golovkin fans tell me how Hagler/Monzon are over-rated etc

it is what it is

the pac-hoard alienated Manny the same way

true boxing fans don't wanna hear that shht

All any fighter can do is beat the fighters they put in front of him. Golovkin's done that 37X, he's held the MW title and defended it successfully 19X.
Those are just facts and not arguable.
A person would have grounds for saying Golovkin was the best MW of his era but that's an opinion and could be argued endlessly without coming to a resolution.
My take is GGG's a fan friendly fighter. He's fun to watch because he let's his hands go. He'll take a punch (or two) to land one. Of course he's over hyped. Name one good fighter who hasn't been.
GGG's an entertaining fighter and boxing is entertainment.

When a boxer tends to only have RTARDED fans that are SUPER obnoxious and just plain dumb as rocks its hard to even be in the same room watching a fight with them. And it makes ppl tend to root against them.

I cant STAND Pac T ards!!! But I like Pac.

Ggg has a lot of dumb fans who scream and shout LOOk at me!!!! Im a FKn Rtard and dont know sht about boxing!!!! GGG by round 1 ko! Ggg would STOMP Andre Ward! Ward ducking GGG!!! No one survives 12 rounds with GGG! No one in the HISTORY of boxing. Past, present, and FUTURE!!!

Yeah its kind of hard to like a boxer when he has c@ck suking OBNOXIOUS fans...

I only started liking Pac again after he got KTFO

correct

oh, apart from the MW defences, which are not legit

now, that other bunk that Golovkin fans like spouting.....

that Golovkin is an ATG, that Hagler/Monzon/Hopkins were over-rated...... and that Mayweather, Cotto, Ward, Froch, Hopkins, Canelo, Lara..... are all bums.....

THAT, is the problem right there

you KNOW that the lunacy did not stop at the bold in your post

you KNOW this

so, no point in brushing that other stuff under the carpet

until the Jacobs fight, Golovkin fans were insufferable

now they are good boys

Yes, that's all true, especially the part about arguing without resolution; it's all just opinion.

no, no, because he was knocking all the fighters he was supposed to ko, ko are fun, and as soon as everyone started saying he the best thing since sliced bread i started hating his fans which made me not care about ggg anymore, plus I’m a canelo fan, so there’s you go
