    How can everyone be so sure Golovkin has zero chance? Are we forgetting Canelo's last opponents since GGG have come specifically to lose in blatant fixed fights ? Are we forgetting Golovkin just brutalised Murata after a year or two out the ring at the age of 40?

    If Canelo's fights were real at 168 (which they are not) Canelo has regressed since GGG 2. Plod forward > opponent pitty pats on backfoot > Canelo loops telegraphed punches >repeat.

    Murata just showed Canelo's opponents what coming to win actually means

    You mean the most knowledgeable. I am not a fanboy simply telling you that the eyes don’t deceive that Lil G is in decline.

    I had Murata winning 4 rounds. 5 is a stretch, but I don't see the usual corruption where Murata would have received a 117-111/116-112 scorecard if it had lasted the distance.

    I could agree with the Golovkin 8-4 in the first fight, but to say that was clear is just silliness. The second fight was a clear Canelo win imo, more clear than the Golovkin win in the first.

    kiwi is what women eat to be able to poo. Isnt it?

    XD I'm only joking. A kiwi is an australian, right? maybe for you it is obvious, I had to deduce it in this forum, I had no clue and I had never heard it before.

    EDIT: well, if you read this comment... I am wrong, a kiwi is a New Zealander, not an Australian.

    I meant to type round five, round four and five for me were GGG rounds but some people were giving Murata round four which I thought was crazy. Definitely gave him rounds two and three for sure.

    Well, it's safe to assume, on account of the visibly superior skillset, similar toughness and having defeated the better opposition.

    The irony is Lil ran away from testing himself against bigger like great fighters do like Canelo and Floyd. The name is in derision at his fanboys who hate that name.

    you are out of your mind, triple G clearly won the first fight. The first fight was far easier to score and had a clear winner. How can you say eight rounds to four isn’t clear enough?

    is Clenelo your 7th cousin?

    He avoided the likes of Ward and Froch at Super Middleweight.

    I guess Marvin Hagler didn’t test himself either because he stayed in one weight division
