    Feel terrible for Golovkin...

    Despite my conflicts with many GG fans, and my picking against him twice, I do think GG should have 2 W's over Canelo.

    GG had guys duck him, had management that make shytty matches, had a trainer that embarrassed him in the media.
    And, the 2 legacy defining fights that should have sent him out on a high note really reek of BS.

    I'm not going to be militant about it. If you scored Canelo winning, fair enough. The fights can be debated. But, personally I don't feel good about any of it.

    Whatever GG does from here on out, all the best to him.

    I really don't. He knew he needed a KO to beat Canelo and he pressed the action too late and rarely any body work! Sanchez is also overrated as a trainer.

      Agreed. 100%. Props to Canelo for fighting THAT fight but he lost.

        I think it’s trash to rob an old man at the end of his career.

        GGG has given us so many exciting experiences and fight.

        If I were him I’d pull a Hagler and retire.

          So since he knew he was going to be screwed on cards it's his fault?

          Good one, guy.

                  Great fight by both guys, his team talked so much smack about Canelo running the first fight and he was backpedaling most of this fight.

                  So they can eat a **** imo.

                    If they can rob Pacquiao at the height of his career then anybody can get it
