    Golovkin is amazingly good at 35 and has a style that would carry him into his 40s.

    Theres an eight year gap between him and Canelo

    Even with Refs, Judges, VADA and everything going against Golovkin he still has people convinced that he will take this, a testament to his ability.

    Alot of people were saying that Canelo should have waited Golovkin out...
    thank God he didint do that

    but the question is, how long would have Canelo have to wait before people think
    he would likely beat Golovkin

    at a 40 year old Golovkin you have a 32 year old Canelo, a very good age but
    40 not so much.

    Of course theres no telling how Golovkin would look at 40 but thats where you
    have to speculate.

    your right what was I thinking, Canelo would never be the favorite against Golovkin.

    Canelo is shitting bricks, if anybody is. There's a reason he bulked up like Popeye ... he still remembers the punches Golovkin hit him with when sparring, that were so hard they numbed his legs. Then he is thinking ... "if GGG could do that to me in sparring, what's he going to do to me in a fight?"

    :pesas: < Not gonna help

    Man, I was going to pick a bone with him about it but ... well ... Farmy seems a bit unhinged, know what I mean? Arguing with those types is pointless. Notice how few replies he gets? We're both Golovkin fans, but his views are a little far out.

    Nice to see more poster waking up to the B.S. VADA testing protocols that favor Cucknelo.
