He fought Rolls because he expected to fight Canelo 3 months later and did not want a hard opponent so close to that fight. You are assuming he fights 5 more Rolls type guys but you are wrong. He will beat a world champion next old or not. Wait and see.He is not so old that Canelo does not want to risk a third fight with him until he is 40 years old.
Will Golovkin ever become a Canelo-level star?

Seems okay with his fans to always beg for a Canelo fight. They don't realize he can still be on his own and beat guys like Andrade and Charlo. So you can see I'm neither a Charlo nor Andrade fan. In fact, I want to see him beat these ultra hyped fighters.Comment

GGG did a lot. Unfortunately the big names didn't want to fight him when he was knocking everybody out left and right. It's really sad when you look back on it. He's 37 and clearly on the last stage of his career. But that doesn't mean he can't add to his legacy and star power. Like it or not Golovkin's career is tied with Canelo's and vice versa. Like Ali and Frazier. You can't talk about one without talking about the other. With that being said, the only way Golovkin can really set himself apart is by scoring a definitive win over Canelo. I know he beat him in that first fight regardless of what the judges said. The second was close. But what GGG needs is a knockout win over Canelo to boost his stock and legacy.
He can fight Andrade, Billy Joe Saunders, and others, but because his career is so attached to Canelo's, it's almost a necessity for him to beat him definitively to move on and add to his star power.Comment

Why t f are people talking about his age?
It's so damn annoying.
If he's that old, then make him retire.
No one is forcing him to continue fighting.
Look at Pacquaio. He's 41 and he's fighting Thurman.
Glovkin signed a 6 fight contract with DAZN for $60 million.
You want him to fight Canelo six effing times?!
It's ridiculous.
Pacquaio is 41 and past it. His career already peaked.
You are the dumb ass asking if a 37 year old Kazhaki fighter can still become as popular as mexican Canelo Alvarez, who is the number 1 ppv star today, who is 28 and has fought Mayweather, Cotto, Mosley, Chavez Jr to get to the level of fame he is at now.
That is a ***ing ******ed question.Comment
