      i was just being equal amongst the sexes by not assuming you were male, you already done that with me so it was 50/50 you werent.


      Some femmes are going to be upset you think being a women is an insult. Good luck sorting that out.

            I personally think Golovkin's legacy is secure but I don't believe its anything too special. A win over Canelo will help it but in all honesty I don't see it as a career maker. He's had 20+ title defenses with MAYBE 6-8 credible opponents. You can't fight the best every time and mandatories do stall things but if I has to grade GGG's legacy from a 0-10 I'd give it a 7-7.5 right now. I'll bump it to an 8 with a decision Canelo win or maybe a bit over 8 if he stops Canelo. Idk what do you guys think about his legacy?
            Are there any other champions fighting today with 20 +title defenses 20 of them wins 1 draw and 19 of them KO wins, and 8 credible opponents? WHO ARE THEY?

              He’s an all time great middleweight. I’ve enjoyed his career. He left some fights on the table that I wish were made but that’s just this era of boxing.

                Spoken like the good GGG hater that you are. When it comes to hating GGG you are among the best. Since you know Canelo will win how much money are you betting on the 9 to 5 betting underdog Canelo?

                    whats the issue, yuo should be proud of a true record not an invented one.
                    What Wiki?
                    Boxrec wiki says 19-0-1 title defenses.

                    Wikipedia says he defended his title against Proksa.

                    So where are you getting your 9 from?

                      He's a great middleweight. Where he lies in the middleweight atg list is where the debate lies. Top 5? Maybe. Top 10? Probably. Depends on what your criteria is--- since older generation of fighters wouldn't even be middleweights in today's era, for example.
