Comments Thread For: Golovkin Promoter: Canelo Wants 65-35, We Want Fair 50-50 Split!

[Jab jab boom]

If you only saw Canelo land three significant punches, you’re either blind or dumb. If you’re implying that the punches he landed weren’t of much substance because they didn’t hurt GGG, it further points to Canelo being the rightful winner. Because GGG never hurt Canelo. And most o his connects were jabs and arm punches.

neither hurt the other but 1 was more aggressive and landed more. Are you Mexican?

Yeah sure. Before he pissed hot for peds. Dumbass!!!!

If anything, that just makes the fight bigger! Canelo did that, not ggg. So canelo should ask for more! What, did ggg beating Vanes make this rematch bigger? Hell no! Dumb b.itch

Canelo landed more power shots, at a higher connect percentage. GGG won the jabbing contest. Canelo landed more power shots in seven of twelve rounds. I don’t care how aggressive you are. I favor the guy landing the cleaner shots.

You obviously don’t know how to score a fight. You score based on clean punching. Canelo has the edge. Effective aggression. GGG was the aggressor, but how effective was it. Ring generalship. In the rounds that were relatively even, I gave GGG the edge because at times the pace of the fight seemed to be getting to Canelo at times. And the forth and most forgotten criteria is defense. Canelo was clearly the better defender in the ring. All that adds up to a very even fight. I favored Canelo. I don’t have a problem with a draw. I don’t have a problem with someone having GGG winning close. I do have a problem with the notion that GGG dominated or even clearly or decisively beat Canelo, because it just didn’t happen.

And no, I’m not Mexican nor a Canelo fan. I’m a seasoned fight fan. I thought Trout deserved the decision against Canelo. I thought Lara clearly beat Canelo. There’s no biased over here. GGG wasn’t a good that night as a lot of you pretend he was. Look at his face post fight. He also took a lot of punishment the body.

no need to write a novel. If you knew so much about boxing, you'd know that power punches don't really mean they landed with power. Canelo fought passively & tried to steal rounds by only fighting 30-45 seconds per round. You talk about not knowing how to score fights but maybe you should Google the press row scores for that fight. You're in the vast minority in thinking Canelo won. You clearly don't know as much about boxing as you think.

so your logic is that Canelo should get more money because he got busted for cheating so now the fight is bigger? Are your parents cousins by chance??

But again, your only rebuttal is that GGG was the aggressor. Or that more people thought GGG won. Most people favor aggression. Regardless of whether it’s effective or not. And most people frown on a guy fighting going backwards, even if he’s being more effective. And that’s because most people don’t know **** about boxing, you’re a prime example.

Mayweather and tyson's biggest paydays were after scandal.canelo didn't loose any endorsements the fight got more interest and tickets started selling faster after the +result.lomanchenko never rematched salido and he's doing fine.Canelo has enough fans and haters that will pay to see him win or lose the same haters that root and claim to be fans of ggg but are unwilling to pay for him against someone not named canelo.

Those scandals weren't similar to Canelo's they were unrelated to the ring. Lomachenko and Salido have nothing to do with Canelo and PEDs.

I am not saying Canelo will not be a top draw in boxing but his trajectory is not on the way up. Golovkin is not and will never be a guy who can do half a million PPVs on his own. He is always going to need a good dance partner to even bring in 100K. I am not sure Canelo can get away though with what he did in the past. Golovkin is his biggest fight. If it does not happen it will hurt his sales even more I believe.

But it was ggg who refused to sign the rescheduled rematch he had the power to make the fight by signing.his team is saying canelo really doesn't want the fight with 1 year inactive and knee surgery if that's true then this would be a perfect time to call canelos bluff and fight him and try to win.Mexican Americans whether they love him or hate him will always watch him to see him win or lose they love boxing to much not to tune in no matter who he fights just look at Chavez Jr who tested for diuretics fought only small bums was lazy ducked Canelo for years when he was the A side and could of fought him at the weight of his choosing margaritos bum ass was caught trying to load his gloves.

that's not my only argument but the fact that you referred to GGG's jab as an arm jab, leads me to believe that you don't know what you're saying. He doesn't have a flick type of jab. He lands it with authority so trying to minimize that punch yet arguing that Canelo landed these so called "power punches" isn't a valid argument when Canelo did land with much power throughout the entire fight. If you out work your opponent most rounds and also outlanded them, you should win the fight. You make it sound like Canelo was fighting like Floyd did vs him and that wasn't anywhere near the case.
