    Pro boxers are prize fighters. they fight for money and legacy is a distant 2nd and that includes your boy Richie Rich Money Bags Canelo. Hearns has a great legacy but he blew the millions he made and is almost broke. Khan's legacy is not much but he is smart with money and has saved the big money he made in the ring and is one of the richest of all boxers. What do you think Hearns would rather have now. His great legacy or Khan's many millions of pounds or dollars?

      Awww, cornholiodogs trying time be objective with scoring. Saying either fighter could’ve won because it was close or that it was a Draw, but isn’t open to the idea that Legendary boxers thought Canelo beat GGG. “But but ringside observers doe”

        Hearns is a REAL fighter !!

        so yea, 100% sure he would prefer to be the legend he became rather than rich

        dude, a few days ago... weren't you trying to tell everyone that fighters would rather have Pacquiao's career over Mayweathers?

        you cannot have it both ways

        Canelo had the balls to fight Lara, Golovkin did not

          I was rooting for GGG but I loved Derevyanchenko's work rate. I personally don't believe GGG pulled that one off.

          But kind of weird for you to say that was 7 years ago and was in his developmental stage...

          With that being said, Canelo in the recent year or two has called for a Mayweather rematch. Should Canelo just accept the loss because he was in his developmental stage? Should he just let it go?

              No he hasn’t! He’s been asked if he would say Yes to a rematch and what? You expect him to say No? Easy money fight that he can squeeze in and BTF out of Floyd, Legacy wise it would mean zero because Floyd is in no condition to beat Canelo and Floyd would never take that fight nor would Canelo accept Floyd’s conditions. Bro that fight would never happen, talking about is a waste of time but Canelo has accepted publicly that on that day the better man won. Look at it like Foreman losing to Ali, similar situation

                Naive much Scrappy? Maybe you need to take off them rose tinted specs.

                https://www.nytimes.com/1981/09/13/m...n-leonard.html

                Steward was saying that Hearns wouldn't even step into the ring with Leonard unless each fighter was guaranteed he'd leave with the same amount of money in his pocket.
                Leonard, however, was mostly interested in green. ''I was a naive kid,'' Leonard admits, ''and when Mike was talking I didn't hear what he was saying about business. All I heard was 'thousands.' All I wanted to know was when I would get my money.

                The dudes - even the legends - were always fighting for the money first, man. Legacy is what happens when the opportunity, money and quality align, which ain't always the case. Ain't a coincidence that all these legendary fights just happened to be the ones with the biggest payday attached. Difference today is that dudes can make $ mils fighting second and third tier dudes.


                And Lara was never even a realsitic option for GGG cos he was on a different network and nor was he directly in his path as he was for Canelo. Completely different circumstances, but I know you already know this.

                  I'm not the moron here I stated a FACT this is another thread trashing GGG and praising Canelo. Another fact is it wont be long before there is thread trashing Canelo and praising GGG. Losers like you should find another topic to discuss. Believe it or not there are literally thousands of professional boxers to talk about. Hundreds of those are worth talking about.
