    He did random testing for a year before rematching GGG.

    BS I'd lay odds the ginger coward was never tested just like Mayweather. I'll bet that guy that caught him with the clenbuterol dont work for NSAC any more Plus it was only due to Thomas Hauser exposing Floyd & the IV gate debacle that exposed Floyd for the cheating coward he was Thomas Hauser should be inducted into the Boxing HOF for doing that

    Realistically it couldn't have happened much earlier at best in late 2016. Cotto Canelo in November 2015 was a huge fight and huge fights don't happen back to back so one voluntary for Canelo would have been fine and then GGG in late 2016 at the earliest. Sure they were trying to age GGG but one extra year is not that egregious. Also GGG got the benefit of experiencing better more dangerous opposition and bigger events against Lemieux Brook and Jacob's. People said he froze a bit vs Canelo, well he would have frozen worse without those fights.

    I had GGG winning the first fight. Clearly.
    I also think Canelo juiced from 2014/5-2017 But imo he won a close fight fair and square in the rematch and hasn't been on the juice since, atleast not as obviously.

    I agree with you from a pragmatic standpoint. What I mean is that their relative peaks intersected best around 2015. GGG was probably at the end of his prime, and Canelo was hitting his. In 2021, I'm just not that interested in a third fight. First fight GGG, second one Canelo close, third one Canelo wide. Would rather see Charlo fight one of the two, just to see a different clash of styles.

    Oh, how ironic that once again fighters you like are most definitely clean.
    Just like Mosley was on PED´s against Margarito, but was clean vs Floyd. But Floyd was on PED´s
    :lol:
    And you also said that Mosley was clean vs Mora. :lol:

    Maybe so, hopefully so, but it doesn't change the fact that there are much better and more proven opponents between 160-168.

    This type of fight is what has defined GGG. He acted like no one ever wanted to fight him, but just about every time he could get in with an elite fighter he avoided it.

    Excited cos I like to see golovkin fights.. While not fast or flash he's very skilled and has scored some great kos and tends to be in entertaining fights... Gotta enjoy him while he's still around

    Not excited cos I never heard of szeremata til he became mandatory

    Go to a gym Isal, lift some weights, see if you can gain muscle like canelo did. I'll wait.

    But are you denying that he can't crack ?

    Last time i checked he KO'd 35 with some highlight reel KO's. He can crack.
