Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: GGG Has To 'Earn His Spot' To Get Canelo Trilogy!

Its a fact that Canelo COULD be 0-4 in his fights with arguably his four toughest fights. GGG(twice) May, Lara. He ll he could have lost the trout fight and it would not be a robbery. For the record I thought he beat trout by one, lost to Lara by 2(no robbery though), and lost(1st fight) and draw(2nd fight)with GGG.Comment

The GGG fight is still a fight much more in demand than a Kovalev fight and would've earned Canelo more guaranteed money. There seems to be more to the story though as it concerns Golden Boy's involvement but I can't help but think the promo for this Kovalev fight (with less than 2 months out) won't have anywhere near the build up a Trilogy fight w/ GGG would've had. Canelo seems to have DAZN by the balls a bit but likely at the expense of not many people seeing the fight or anywhere near as they would for a 3rd GGG fight (or it being on conventional PPV and not a Streaming App).Comment

I personally don't believe that Canelo was cheating from what I put together about the circumstances, and Fury's situation well known years back but Fury has been bad mouthed by the media for so many of his issues and outbursts and the PED's, but if GGG had been busted instead of Canelo, the media would have ripped him a new hole, and people would still be talking about it in the media and all over these boards to this day. And one more thing, I have had less to critique Canelo for, since I dont feel he cheated and as to GGG because I do not like the fact that GGG ran out of the ring after the second fight.Comment

My answer to all those questions EXCEPT better resume is WHO CARES. Your a fan, not his accountent or manager. As far as resume I would pick Canelo, but that don't change the fact that he has yet to REALLY beat GGG as most thought he lost 1st and most had 2nd a draw. Also at 160 GGG's resume is better, but overall its Canelo. I am subjective and im not one of those guys who hates on ANYBODY(except PED cheats)if I live to be a thousand I will never understand the people who love GGG and hate Canelo and same with Ward v Kov, Wilder v AJ ect ect. there is ALWAYS something I like about all world class fighters.Comment

Its on the wide side for GGG no doubt but a few legit boxing people had it 8-4. F#cking Harold Lederman had it 8-4 & hes the mfer who often over rewards aggression which is what Canelo exceled at in the rematch.
Thats how effective GGG's jab was that night to many mfers. To me the jab gave GGG rounds more than Canelo's aggression won rounds.
And "most definitely" he Canelo won cuz the official decision was a majority decision for Canelo, but that doesnt change the fact most everyone had the fight so close a round or two would alter the winner & most had GGG winning so the consensus by fans was once again the wrong outcome was given in this fight not unlike the first fight where the official draw was deemed a unofficial W for GGG by most watching the fight. Thats just the f#cking reality no matter what the minority that scored one or both fights for Canelo wanna suggest.
Thats why I dont get this acting like GGG is old news now despite Canelo not clearly winning either fight & both outcomes being viewed as bad outcomes both f#cking times. I really thought Canelo was gonna win both fights myself. And I think too many knuckleheads are hyped up by how Canelo fought in the 2nd fight than how effective he actually was. GGG's jab was the best thing happening in that 2nd fight to my own surprise.Comment
