    btw, where in that post did I say that Trout was... a) good... b) one of Carnelo's best victories?

    In that post I said that Carnelo fought the best JMW's

    it looks like you settled for close, and decided to bullshlt the rest

    stop doing a GREAT job of pretending to be spastic, and admit that Golovkin's resume is shlt
    Trout isn't very good.
    Yet, he is still touted as a good win..
    For some reason.
    Also Tapia won that fight.

      because the elite light middle was hurting him.

        He probably thought it was working. There is a reason so many people had him winning.

        Besides, Golovkin has never been the kind of fighter to put his head in your chest and exchange inside. He wants the distance to work off his jab. Even when he pressures fighters, he likes to stay at jab distance and work off of it.

        Alvarez moved forward, so Golovkin backed up to maintain his jab.

          Because Canelo imposed his will on him. He proved the point that he could be the aggressor and make 3G back off. He did just that. It was a quality performance from El Gingernut.

            He was scared of Canelo’s power.

            Look at the lead up to the fight.

            “Mexican style”

            “Stand and fight”

            “Etc.

            GGG and his trainer were both talking about bringing the fight to Canelo.

            Instead he, as his fans like to call it, “ran”.

                  well he was better than Tapia, thats for sure

                  and no, Tapia did not win

                  Tapia was tough, but basic... like you, except without the tough part
