    He did very good against GGG in both fight the rematch he learned a lot. I still feel he lost the rematch but a draw I'd have accepted easily.

    what does calling it exactly like you see it have to do with support? i think he cheated at one point, but i also saw him beat ggg saturday. ETHICS, for me, is being honest about reality no matter how uncomfortable it makes me feel. im not going to do moral gymnastics to justify saying something i know to be untrue, just to satisfy my personal feelings about justice.

    Been away from this site for a while. I remember GGG didnt have much support and fanboys. 90% of the members are crying about him losing. Wtf have I missed?

    Canelo proved himself. He took it to the champ. Who's next for him?

    Ok legit lol, and I agree. Some of these dudes need to construct a bridge and get the **** over it at some point.

    some had a lot invested in the ggg legend, its hard to get past a 5 year chunk of your life. i had the luxury of seeing it coming for a year now, some never even allowed the thought of ggg losing to enter their minds.

    Nope, disagree. Golovkin has been getting slower and slower for the last five years, him losing was inevitable. Losing to Canelo was in my mind a real possibility given how well Canelo had filled out into 160. However, he did not lose to Canelo and was robbed of his belts. It's shameful. He should never have rematched Canelo in Vegas, it was inevitable that he would lose if it went to the cards.

    then you must have picked canelo to beat ggg, since he is only getting slower every day, and the 1st fight a year ago was so hotly contested and canelo is only getting better.

    I said that if it went to the cards Canelo would win, and that GGG would need a KD to take the fight. I was right. Not because Canelo is that good (although he certainly is very good) but because we know the judges will tip it his way. I was right.

    Yup. Hoped Golovkin could KO him but doubted it.
