    I may be the minority but my answer is no. What is the point? If it goes to decision again Golovkin will certainly lose. Golovkin will try to KO Canelo, it will be closer than last time, and the judges will surely rob Golovkin and give him the L.

    He can go beat Saunders ass, get the belt then retire.

    Yes he would be silly not to

    Of course he'll be mad at the decision but hes at the stage of his career where he'll be thinking bout planning his final few fights and Canelo is the money fight for him to take

    I'd like to see GGG unify, rematch Canelo and then maybe test himself at 168 or call it a day, What an ending to his career that could be!

    Canelo is going to go back to fighting old midgets now. Heard Oscar has already contacted Loma and Rigo, to set Canelo up with the winner.

    Just to fight him again I would say "No". The 10-2 scorecard proves the before the fight thought that GGG would not get a fair shake on the cards.


    However, money wise its still the best fight out there for him. I would just negotiate for a better cut this time. GGG is close to retiring. He can pick up a few more defenses and break the record and his HOF ticket will be punched. There are no real "big fights" out there for Canelo. Canelo needs to show he can win without a pre filled out scorecard that Daddy Oscar paid for.

    If he can get Oscar to turn over Big Red in the next 4-5 months then YES
    If they want to wait 6-9 months then FK no

    I say yes.

    But not in Vegas and not with GBP judges aka the 2 blind mice > :cool1::cool1::confused:

    Hopefully Team GGG remembers that he can punch the body as well, this time. :headbash

    There's no bigger money fight and no better competitor to raise his prestige against. Besides, I love a classic series. Gatti/Ward, Barrera/Morales, Pacquiao/Marquez, Vazquez/Marquez, Graciano/Zale, Holyfield/Bowe, Patterson/Johannsen, Ali/Frazier, etc.

    Not if he doesn't want to risk losing by a wider margin than he did last Saturday. However, if money is what he wants, then sure-why not?

    If the money is right, then YES.

    Canelo, like Marvin Hagler, is 5'9" .

    So according to you Everyone below 5' nine, such as Roberto Duran, Hector Camacho, Julio Cesar Chavez, Archie Moore, and Floyd Mayweather is a midget? Seems you don't really know what a midget is.

    No rematch. Unless even money split. And all judges and ref screened.

    It's still the biggest payday out there for GGG, and the simple truth of the matter is, Canelo's still the one in the driver's seat.

    It's still the biggest fight in boxing.

    Why wouldn't we want to see that again?
