Comments Thread For: Trainer: Don't Use GGG's Age as Excuse When Derevyanchenko Wins

[bronx7]

Rozier getting blown up for what? Who did he groom besides Jacobs? His claim to fame is serving GGG victims?

[Jab jab boom]

So I guess based on this logic, we can now give Terry Norris full credit for beating sugar ray Leonard, we can give tsyzu full credit for beating Chavez, Danny Williams full credit for beating Tyson, Holmes full credit for beating Ali... Etc

Why mfers always saying sh^t like this. A mfer could be 52 & be like don't blame it on age when I f#ck you up.

The fact is age matters like it or not & that could play a part in certain losses. Time moves on & this is a young fighters game.

^^^^^^^


This.

Yet ppl say Canelo wasn't in his prime at 23 when Floyd schooled him yet the same ppl claim Tyson was in his prime a 23 and wasn't after that.

I forgot 37 in boxing is a young age. Especially with golovkins style

Old & prime are two different things. Not sure what you are coming at me with prime sh^t for.

Wonder what their excuse will be when GGG beats his ass and he loses his 2nd title shot he didn’t deserve.

Ah but is an excuse

100% agree with that. People don't understand the difference. I've always considered a fighters "prime" to be the years of his career where all of his tools were the sharpest (reflexes, skill, stamina, athleticism durability etc).

Floyd probably had one of the longest primes ever, carrying some of it into his late 30s.

Some fighters primes last longer than others. One fight can shorten it.
Example: The Margarito fight shortened Pacmans prime. Yes he was still good and still fairly young after that fight. But he was no longer prime Pacman & his performances after that showed the fight took a lot out of him.

Canelo has been in his prime for at least the last 3 or 4 years. No way in hell was he prime vs. Floyd. Idk wth that other guy was talking about.

GGG still has enough to dominate SD, who doesn't have the power to keep G off of him
