    Curt he did though you can’t deny that. They beat up on each other then all
    Of a sudden he comes back. The thing that gets to me is that imo Floyd was so good he could have easily neat most of them but like ssm said he was afraid to lose. After Oscar he took very few risks maybe one or two out of what..12 fights

    As
    Far as GGG he let me down. He somewhere became money Golovkin when he could have fought much better opposition. Yeah he was ducked for a big part of his career but for the past 3 years he hasn’t. He should have fought ward at 170 lost and gained experience out of it fk it it happens

      he could have stayed at 160 for the much bigger money fight vs canelo which he did....

      and same reason for not fighting billy was to do with canelo

      stop being naive to push your agenda

        he refused to budge on weight to get canelo earlier...and refused to budge on weight with cotto despite saying hes looking for fights 154-168

        he flat out ducked ward to fight a WW and dom wade in that year

        hbo continually paid him well to fight scrubs like wade and curtis stevens(you know stevens has to prior L's to D level club fighters in primera and brinkley right?)

        the formula is simple...give him bums that he can knock out and make him look like a machine.....but if he goes to 168 and loses to ward then the luster comes off...the myth the legend is busted and suddenly no is clamoring to see ggg vs canelo...because suddenly golovkin aint the killer if he loses to ward

        for years lara would have made a great opponent...actually would have been THE BEST name on his resume prior to canelo.....lara was #1 154 and had headlined many shows on premium and cable......yet golovkins team showed 0 interest and even shot his name down when asked about him

        but they were ok with gabe rosado...or kell brook..or dom wade...or curtis stevens....who are all there to be hit and make lil g look like a machine

        hbo and abel sold everyone a bill of goods....hes an ATG fighting C level comp....guys looking for a hero wanted him to be an ATG and a killing machine....the truth is hes a good fighter....but not all that special
        he beat a pedded up canelo and you saying he got exposed vs canelo means you think canelo is a bum

          He's a bum. And Canela's best win by far.

              where did i say anything about canelo being a bum?

              also...where did you address anything i actually said?

              you didnt....and you probably cant....i use logic and reason...i watched it all play out and unfold...

              all you are doing is deflecting because deep down you know what i said was true about him

                    why are you talking to these tribalists? they still think he ducked ward its laughable. they don't even care that it was a 2 fight deal in which ggg would have to preemptively postpone the canelo fight. its such bollocks they literally don't care about the truth. they never for one second question why ward didn't offer a 1 fight deal, why ward wanted ggg to postpone that huge fght, and why ward needed another tune up after just fighting paul smith. is it any surprise such people think ggg ****** and he lost to canleo twice?

                      Canelo owns his soul

                      The first fight was a legit draw
