Comments Thread For: Let's get ready to trilogy: Golovkin's return mandates Canelo III

[MrShakeAndBake]

Why is Canelo fighting guys like Jacobs while Canelo fights guys like Vanes and Wells???

Cuz GGG already dropped and BEAT Jacobs. And don’t act like Clenelo did not fight Liam smith, chavez jr and Fielding lol

Trash article by a biased media member. No body cares Lyle. The first two fights weren’t even that great and GGG hasn’t beat anyone of worth to warrant a different outcome.

What’s amazing is GGG just got paid 15 million to fight a dehydrated 168 lb fighter ranked number 79? DAZN has to be the most poorly run sports company ever. GGG has worn out his welcome.

Was signing Demetrius Andrade a mistake by DAZN?
Michael Woods
June 10, 2019

Far be it from me to, outside looking in, to tell Eddie Hearn and the DAZN crew that they might have made a misstep when they signed Demetrius “Boo Boo” Andrade into the fold.

But I kinda think maybe they did.

Hear me out.

Demetrius Andrade deserves to be signed to the DAZN mix. Very, very talented guy. But in a way, he’s too talented. That’s because his ring generalship and skill set are top level, but his profile isn’t at the same level.

Thus, if you are Team Canelo or Team Golovkin, you look hard at Andrade and that WBO 160-pound crown he has — and then I think you look elsewhere.

Now you in the Boo Boo crew can hurl epithets and cast angry glares at the Canelo and GGG teams. But if you think about it, can you really blame them?

This is the boxing business, after all. And the risk-reward proposition for an Andrade fight is not in the ballpark of a bunch of other matches for either Canelo or GGG.

Furthermore, as a style match, Canelo vs Andrade is not a fan friendly pairing. It turned out that Canelo vs Jacobs wasn’t so much, and I think moving forward, that could be an issue for DAZN. Again, think about it: Canelo has now emerged as quite a skilled pugilist. His defense is top-notch and he’s not prone to trading and taking risks. If you’ve seen Andrade, you know the same can be said of him.

Often times, merit wins out and these sorts of fights get made, even though they don’t promise to be barnburners, and are most likely to be enthused about by those who truly appreciate the subtleties of the sweet science.

Anyway, Andrade has a gig lined up, as the 27-0 Rhode Island native battles Maciej Sulecki on June 29, at the Dunkin Donuts Center in Providence, Rhode Island.

A thought: it might be better for Andrade, age 31, if he turns in a subpar performance, if Suliecki buzzes him or what have you. Boxing is a strange game — sometimes you gain more from a less glimmering outing.

Bottom line, I do wonder this: does Eddie Hearn ever wish he’d not approached Andrade and had him come aboard? Because the particular nature of his talents makes him a bogeyman, and that bogeyman can only be avoided for so long. Yep, boxing is weird — only in this sphere does it make it harder when you have too much talent under the tent.

so what happens in the mean time??? what if canelo doesn't fight him next? fight another guy not even in the top 30?

“mean time” has been going on for a long time... Do you want to see them fight or not?
both fight were very close. GGG won the first one, second was a draw. So why not have a trilogy? Want to wait till GGG 40 ? what for?

[j.razor]

We all wish these media people put the same pressure on Spence, Crawford, Charlo brothers, T Davis, etc.

They never get tired of eating the same dish in a huge kitchen full of many choices.

Don't you people wish we have lots of Canelos, Golovkins to talk about in this damn sport?

You got the WRONG people (except maybe Tank..). You should be wishing they put the pressure on bob arum & eddie hearn.

canelo is not interested, so is he going to keep begging and hope he says yes or just fight someone?

[angkag]

Two fights.
Two razor close decisions.
Why does GGG have to "earn" a 3rd fight?

I'm also totally mystified by this 'earn it' concept. Considerly more people are willing to shell out money to see Canelo and Golovkin go at it again than any other fight - if thats not the definition of 'earned it' (for both of them) I don't know what is.

I'm one of those not that keen on it as I think Golovkin has aged too much and will take too much damage, but I recognise its the fight that more people are willing to pay for and accept it will happen. But this 'earn it' concept is nonsense.

[j.razor]

he doesnt have to earn anything! canelo fans so shooked! the first fight, most thought ggg won! the second fight, most thought ggg won again! how does a guy need to earn it first when both fights were close with most having ggg as the winner? did chino have to earned a rematch with floyd?

You got that shet WRONG. Most of the G-Tards & media picked pvssy g as the winner cuz it was their hearts they chose with NOT their eyes.

[j.razor]

IM still trying to figure out how come ggg fans prefer him against guys ranked outside the top 100 over RANKED REAL fighters???

I mean they almost committed SUICIDE when Charlo was ordered to fight him. Then when Andrade said I’ll do it they passed out.

They prefer SHT NO hope fights!

Go back to when ggg was talking all that sht saying everyone was scurred the Ward said WHAT!!! And punked the SHT out of GGG at a party. He won’t even say his name anymore. Last he said was he won’t talk anymore about Ward. That Ward was disrespectful and cuzzed a lot. Dude got called out at a party both attended in Cali.

You know Ward a COLD dude and doesn’t do that trash talk like GGG does in the media. Then his fans jumped on Kovalov nuts hoping big brother would SAVE GGG from the big bad man!

golovkin fans are the biggest cream puffs in the fight game.

[j.razor]

The first fight GGG won. Second fight was a draw, Clenboy had better first half, GGG second. Third fight should happen this year... Othetwise who else they gona fight

Nelo beat that boy 2 different ways in both fights & there is Jermall & Boo Boo.
