Canelo weighed in at 152lbs in 2013.
We are now in 2018, and Canelo is doing what Golovkin has said he was going to do since 2014 "Anyone from 160 to 168."
It's been four years now, Golovkin will be 37 by the next time he fights, and is still at 160. Canelo is 28 years old.
Golovkin has shown interest in fighting Callum Smith recently, but apparently he's leaning more toward staying at 160. Now after Saturday's performance, Canelo's people were so impressed with how he looked at the weight, they're considering going after Smith themselves in the near future.
This is the difference between a fighter who is all talk, or as Errol Spence Jr. put very well "smoke and mirrors" and a fighter who speaks with his actions and makes things happen.
Look at Canelo's resume and his accomplishments at 28, consider his star power and taking the eye test into consideration as well - tell me how in the ***** is he not the #1 P4P fighter in the world at the moment after running through these facts?
How is a fighter with arguably the worst resume in the top 10 p4p list, Terrence Crawford ranked #1? How and why are guys who have been laying out ground work for years fighting top guys and also the top NAMES in the sport while carrying equal to if not better skills also being bigger attractions - ranked below him? Multiple fighters. Do your research. Something is not right in this sport....it doesn't make any sense to me whatsoever.
