Canelo is a better fighter than Golovkin.

    He was but he failed to deliver when it was time to step up in competition. He was supposed to knock canelo out, atleast that's what i was told by overzealous ggg fanbois leading up to the fight. Hell even abel said if it went to the cards they deserved to lose.

    There's no real "Supposed to KO..." you guys look so dumb saying that. :lol: "Oh no, some posters predicted a KO...and it never happened!!"

    But you've admitted to being a brain dead hater of 3G. Why should anything you post be taken seriously?

    Ggg was the favorite in the 1st fight Lance. He was picked by a large majority of posters here to brutally ko canelo. I picked canelo because i knew gggs level of competition was trash and that would hurt him here. Stop acting like you weren't here back then when it was all going on. I'm simply speaking the truth dont get mad at me for doing so.

    Even for the rematch a large percentage of GGG die hards predicted GGG by KO, probably not as many as for the first fight, but a large part of them.

    As I recall, he was shark food, because he was apparently shrunken and weak without the PEDs. (I think there were some photos on a boat or something?)

    Then Canelo comes out and presses the fight for pretty much the whole 12.

    EDIT: [url]Around 40% of the vote is pretty high[/url].


    Considering all the fanfare and the expectations of greatness Golovkin revelled in from 2012 to 2017, dominating Canelo is the bare mimimum he should have been able to accomplish (I'll excuse his failure to stop him, on account of Canelo being very tough). A very good, consistent pro whom some people got too carried away with.

    GGG beat Canelo past his prime, and beat him again even further past it.

    GGG aged 28-33 blasts away any version of Canelo we’ve ever seen.

    Don’t care about shitty judges and corrupt decisions, people who watched the fight (and actually understand boxing) know who really won.

    You're the one here making a big deal of this not me. You attacked my post first smartass. I made my point to another poster and for whatever reason you didnt like it and felt the need to comment on it. You like to argue just for the hell of it. This is a boxing forum just because you never put your neck on the line for a prediction don't criticize others who do.

    I was talking about you making a big deal of "Supposed to KO Canelo".... as if that means anything. Guess what... it doesn't. It's just fan prediction FFS....

    That's Lance. He jumps into other people's debate to talk **** to the side he disagrees with, then if you stay on topic he will always say you don't understand what you're reading.. Hahahaha....

    The guy comes here exclusively to argue, not to debate, to argue.

    Only reason why GGG was competitive in the first fight was because Canelo was moving up, was not acclimated and was fighting a real MW for the first time in his career.

    Once acclimated we saw the beating he laid on GGG.

    Canelo has an iron chin. I don't think anybody can KO him anytime soon.
