      Golovkin fought a good fight. He lost a controversial MD vs a top guy in his prime. Fighters take what the other guy gives and fight the way they think they can win. GGG circled and kept Alvarez at the end of his jab. If you watch the fight the only fighter whose back touched the ropes was Alvarez's. So if Alvarez was constantly moving forward, why could he never pin GGG against the ropes?

        ggg's not bigger than canelo. dont really think we need more evidence to decide that one. canelo came down in weight to fight ggg, canelo has fought at 168/175. its like saying pac is smaller than abner mares because pac used to fight at 112

            I personally enjoy when I talk actual boxing and all these guys just talk around me because they dont actually have anything to offer then their blind hate and Canelo fanboyism.

            Canelo is so good, but how many years did he need to wait for GGG to become vulnerable?

            Waited 3 years for him to slip at 155. GGG at 35

            Busted for PEDs make GGG wait a full year when GGG is 36

            Now probably another 2 years and a fight at 168 against GGG at age 38-39

            Might as well wait till GGG retires for 5 years and then call him out again.

                No he didn’t fight a good fight! He got BTFU for 4 rounds straight and couldn’t handle the body shots so he retreated and made a cowardly adjustment. I’m not saying you can’t fight that way but hey “talk all that shet” and get ready for the consequences of not delivering as promised. There’s 2 many arguments man. Give it up

                    Every time you comment your ignorance of the sport is on display.

                      True. The diva didn't want that the 3rd fight with GGG in Sept. because he knew he'd gone life and death with Golovkin and was lucky to come away with a win.
