    What else should a goon talk about,nothing to do with hate just relevant stuff is all,I'll give massive credit if Canelo wins and don't believe that just two fights from Amir Khan is gonna age GGG any anyway.

    I think it's reasonable to say that Canelo will have A side privileges on the cards. If Canelo whips him 8-4 legit no one will complain. If GGG scores a KD, wins half the rounds and gets jobbed then you will hear the cries.

    As for the rematch, geez, you don't think it a bit unfair that Canelo only gets rematch option?

    We don't know until the fight happens. I remember people saying the same thing about Oscar being the A side yet was robbed against Tito and Mosley.

    No. I don't think its unfair. Golovkin didn't think it was unfair, so why should anyone else think different.

    Fair would be both sides get rematch option, in my opinion.
    But hey, he signed it so it's all good.

    Even if GGG loses the fight controversially I'm fine with that. I'm happy he got the mega fight. Even Canelo gonna make huge bucks. It's great for both men.

    It's worth noting that Jacobs fought an almost perfect fight in a style which Canelo can't imitate. As for Brook, Golovkin was noticeably angry in the fight that he couldn't get a middleweight to fight so he became reckless.

    Oh please.

    I don't think GGG is slipping. I think DLH and Canelo think he is. I think that was their plan all along. I think it will backfire.

    Also, let's not pretend Canelo isn't gonna get some leverage on the cards. He's the bigger star. We all know that comes with the package or being the cash cow of the sport.

    Of course you would think that. You're a certified hater.

    ODLH has always made it very clear that this fight was going to happen Sept. 2017 and true to Oscar's words, it is.

    Canelo doesn't wait for anyone.. He fought the best version of Trout and Lara, and he fought Cotto after Cotto wrecked Martinez and Daniel Geale.

    If Canelo waited for opponents to look bad first he would have waited for Trout, Lara, and Cotto to look bad, but all three were coming of winning streaks behind very good wins.

    Its unfortunate you're a hater because it makes it difficult to engage in good honest debate with you.

    Cotto beat the one legged version of Martinez and the beef jerky version of Geale :wanker

    I agree that Golovkin hasn't necessarily slipped and that Brook and Jacobs are very good fighters but you're taking it a bit too far with "Roided to the gills" "2 stone heavier" "Brook was bigger"

    That's what happens when you fight the best. You don't look absolutely dominating. I highly doubt Golovkin will look absolutely dominating over Canelo but he will do better than he did with Jacobs.

    He dominated and KO'd Kell Brook in less than half the scheduled fight.

    He fought a razor close back and forth fight with Jacobs that many boxing industry people thought he lost.

    Those two fights, performances, and results have nothing to do with one another. One was a domination, the other a controversial close fight.
