Gennady Golovkin is a bum, has never been Elite.

[W1LL]

I’m a boxing fan not a player hater and I find it curious that Canelo is in his prime and most likely lost the first fight and can’t put GGG away in the second fight vs a fighter that is 37 years old and as you say a complete bum.No fighter gets faster and stronger after 32 or so years so it would be safe to say G is past his prime but yet Canelo is 1 & 1 with him I gave g the first fight and can’t beat him without controversy.You haters can’t have it both ways.

In the first fight Canelo was cautious, as he is the much smaller man. In the second fight he comfortably handled Golovkin and probably could have stepped it up earlier and had him in trouble. In the third fight Golovkin wouldn't hear the final bell.

If Canelo could only manage to get a draw against a bum in Vegas, where everything is stacked in his favor, what does that make Canelo?

[DreamFighter]

I just find it astounding in hindsight, how he was gifted alphabet titles without ever fighting a World class opponent. "Yea but he unified Middleweight doe!" He got to holding 4 World titles without ever facing a World class opponent. Look at how he picked up his titles: Milton Nunez for the WBA, Lajuan Simon for the IBO, Marco Antonio Rubio for the WBC Interim, David Lemieux for the IBF. Astounding how everything was handed to him on a platter.

to be fair, only one of those was one in the ring, he didnt unify in the ring at all.

The title he won fair ad square was from Lemieux, and you shouldn't knock it , was a good KO win.


Thats the only title he should have had.

Its crazy that people think he unified when he never threw a punch for the other two titles. But he still defended the title he won five or six times, which is good. dont be harsh will. Your title is horrible - he is no bum, maybe a bumkiller. But he is solid world class...but you are half right - hes never been elite.

hmmmm yeah.... Says alot about Canelo too. Struggled vs a past prime bum. Canelo must be a C+ class fighter

He beat Canelo in the first fight, clearly. The second could've gone either way, I think I scored it a draw. Not bad work for a bum.

There's no ****ing "probably could have." If he could have, he would have. Canelo doesn't stop people his size.

he had moved up from WW and LMW. You've written a reverse fact.

A guy grew from when he was a teenager? What a shock

Anyone who bought into the hype with this palooka must feel embarrassed right now. Feasted on soft opponents for years while claiming to be avoided.

GGG had a shot at both the WBA super and IBF titles in 2011, but Daniel Geale didn't wanna fight him. He was ducking so hard, the WBA had to strip him. GGG was then promoted to super champion, and finally got to fight for the IBF strap in 2015, after it had been passed around more than a cheap hooker. That's 4 years of his life wasted, picking up 2 titles, because Geale dodged him. When he tried to unify with the WBC champion in Canelo, dude vacated the title, because he didn't wanna negotiate with GGG, and started beefing with the WBC for literally trying to do their jobs. Because of this, GGG was elevated from the interim champion to the world champion under the WBC. GGG had to go through hell for those belts, because a lot of guys didn't wanna fight him.

Eventually made the step-up in quality and got clowned and totally outclassed.

Yeah, he dropped and beat Jacobs in a close match, got robbed the 1st time against Canelo, and the rematch could've gone either way.

Canelo has never outclassed or clowned any high-class fighters besides Cotto, who was old and didn't belong in that division anyways. Lara and GGG (1st match) were both robbed. Trout, Jacobs and GGG (rematch) fought Canelo to a close match. Mayweather won.

Now look at him. Old, slow, very limited, one-trick pony.

Who a prime Canelo couldn't beat convincingly, and a prime Jacobs couldn't beat at all.

Ducked Billy Joe Saunders for years.

Billy Joe Saunders? The same Billy Joe Saunders said he wouldn't fight GGG after looking like shit against Akavov? You hate GGG so much, you're out here trying to rewrite history.

Canelo will knock him out in a third fight.

If he fights a 40-year-old GGG, then maybe.

Remember, this man, who is a naturally big 160lber, has always been too scared to move upto 168, but had no problem calling out much smaller men like Mayweather and Pacquiao.

GGG is not a big middleweight. You must be talking about Jacobs or something. Also, who wouldn't wanna fight Mayweather or Pacquiao with that kind of money? Canelo drained himself to fight Mayweather and lost, and is now a PPV star in the states. Mind you, GGG wasn't getting much done in his own weight division, due to the aforementioned bullshit he was going through.

I always said he was a manufactured hypejob ny HBO after they lost everyone but he is better than other HBO hypejobs like Bute
