    Keep in mind, he put your boy Canelo through hell twice, it pays to build up GGG not break him down.

    GGG did not have the luxury of having one of the world's biggest and best connected promoters fighting his side from early on in his career like Canelo did.

    No, he just had HBO hyping his ass up to no end.

    Canelo on the other hand despite having GBP still decided to take on the toughest fights available, at times for less money than what he was worth.

    Until 2017 Canelo was a weight bully with a reputation for fighting smaller, older fighters. I find it ironic that Canelo fans would be on GGG about this so heavily. Mathew Hatton, Baldomir, Old Mosley , Josecito Lopez, Alphonso Gomez, both Cotto and his lightweight brother, small glass chinned Khan and little Mayweather who Canelo out weighed by 20 lbs intering the ring . Canelo would gain 20 lbs over night. Only recently has he been fighting guys his size or bigger. You are all some hypocrites and should be ashamed of yourselves.

    Who you talking about, Lara and trout with a guaranteed win if you dont get koed? Ooh, scary risk taker. What about James kirkland who was KOED in one by Ishida, so impressive. Keep telling yourelf what a great resume he has enough times and you might start to believe it.

    Cats got your tongue I guess Lou ?? You shouldnt make up stories about people you know. You'll always get caught in the end. Anyway enjoy the fight. May the best man win in a 100% fair fight.. Not much hope of that happening with Pollo involved though sadly

    If you dont remember this you have been living in a bubble. Josecito Lopes was a 140 pounder. It was a complete mismatch, Mathew Hatton was a journeyman welterweight with no power. You are all casting stones from a glass house until just recently. As a matter of fact Canelo fought more smaller fighters than GGG.

    They are so easy to spot arent they? They are the ones that were embarrassed years ago when Canelo gave up his belt to GGG and needed 18 months to become a middleweight even though he outweighed GGG on fight night consistently while competing as a junior middleweight. Embarrassed Canelo fans never forget.

    Yeah remember he wasn't a true middleweight at one point? Lol. Only because he starved himself year round just to maintain weight... or maybe it was the clen? Either way he was fighting glass jawed fighters (Khan, Kirkland) punching bags (Angulo, Chavez jr) or midgets (Hatton, Lopez).

    I guess we can all play the resume game.
