[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

He gave him the ultimate respect Oscar. He gave him the belt. Let's get it on before Golovkin is 40, and we might have a good fight.

Canelo won't... fight ....you mean!

[boxingitis]

Canelo wont beat Jacobs, Eubank, GGG, maybe not Even Lemiuex and Charlo. Beating Chinny Khan, Midget Cotto, Weakest champ Smith, Layoff Kirkland (No An Wolf) and Bum Chavez doesnt prepare you for top Middleweights.

I doubt that any of those guys can beat Canelo once he is acclimatized to 160

oh really ?

well, beating second-rate feather-fisted Mora certainly prepared Jacobs for Golovkin

Canelo showed respect and fear by giving him his belt.
And Jacobs might have survived because of that respect. I need to watch it again because i had it a draw but im sorprised about Jacobs. I love both guys so im happywith the result even tough i wanted GGG`s KO streak to continue with out hurting Jacobs too much. I think if GGG can get Saunders and Canelo and he beats them, he needs to rematch Jacobs before going up in weight or retireing.

Jacobs would beat Canelo's arse

[Realizniguhnit]

De la Hoya seems to forget at the end of the day Canelo is about 5'7 1/2 and Jacobs was 6'0 185 pounds

Can someone take that coke away from oscar please? smh.

You guys miss the obvious. Delahoya is obvious trying to pressure G into accepting the purse he was offered.

I've said it before. Golovkin used the mandatory position to try to bully his way into a 70/30 purse split without the crendentials or draw to do so.

The one question that sticks out in my mind is why is Golovkin so obessed about a payday. It seems he lacks confidence in his future. It's not canelos fault that he waited till 30 to turn pro.
