    It's tough to say. Golovkin's chances are getting slimmer with every passing year and even when he did more than enough, he got a draw. The rematch was much tighter. As you can see the trend is shifting against him.

    Perhaps a fight with BJS/Andrade - Canelo is the more apt direction. But I certainly wouldn't mind it. If it's gonna happen, might as well be immediately next.

      First was ok but the second was all action. No holding and I didn't even notice the ref.

      I'd like to see a third fight but it's all down to what you like.

          That was a great fight with a high amount of action and drama, what boxing fan wouldn't want to see that again? I suppose some GGG fans don't want to see it because they think GGG won't be able to beat him, and some Canelo fans won't want to see it because they fear GGG might beat Canelo, but pure boxing fans should love round 3.

            The rematch has more actions than the first no doubt about that! What i meant by boring is that, both guys were throwing but there was very little happening. It wasnt like Canelo was knocking GGG down or there was some crazy exchanges. There was a few good shots landed but no crazy exchanges that stood out.

              And it's not like Canelo dominated. It was another close fight. You would think in a year's span Canelo would be a solid favorite, but I expect another close fight. These two are evenly matched elite fighters.
              Nah, mark my words, from here on out, it will only get worst for GGG. He's been in 3 hard 12 rounds fight and at his age, it's not gonna get any better. The first notice of declining came after the Jacobs fight where he went all 12 rounds. In the first Canelo fight, you could see that GGG is slipping. Then in the rematch, he looks even worst. Slow as shit and i believe his balance is off too.

                First notice of decline came after the Jacobs fight? This is the f'n problem with people evaluating Golovkin. How about the fact Jacobs was his FIRST real test? Jacobs was the first elite fighter he faced? And then Canelo was his second elite fighter he faced? Guess what? When you face other elite fighters, you will be in close fights. So if Golovkin faces BJS or Charlo will it be tough fights? OF COURSE they will be tough, but that has to do more with the level of competition than him declining.

                  I'm in BUT I'm also in for either man vs. any ot the other major players in the division. To be honest, I'm thinking that those other major players have been on ice too long.

                    GGG is NEVER going to beat Canelo if he can't knock him out and it is clear that he can't knock Canelo out and Canelo is never going to lose to him on the Cards

                    So NO, it is others at 160 I would like to see get that opportunity while Canelo is still in his PRIME. Unification with BJS if he beats Andrade or Danny Jacobs if he beats Derevyanchenko or Jermall Charlo

                    However after coming off of a great fight, a 3rd fight would still make BIG MONEY!

                      In, but out of Vegas. Maybe NYC.
                      Canelo will be again on PEDS and will loose again anyway.
