    He is 38.... With more than 350 amateur fights and 40 professional fights including 2 wars against Canelo and 15-20 brutal training camps in Big Bear.

    I’m a huge fan, but time is catching up with everyone.

    Retire now as a champion with 2 wins against Canelo instead of finally losing against him.

    Agree he hasn’t looked the same since beating Canelo for the second time.

    Time to hang them up. Before he gets badly hurt

    I don't believe he beats Sergei or Canelo in a rematch, and I don't think he beats Andrade anymore, either. It's probably time.

    GGG is ripe for a brutal ass whooping. Jacobs or Andrade could be the one to do it. Let alone Alvarez.

    I definitely thought he won. It was close but he had won by few points. But you guys are right he should retire. He also does not block punches at all which is not good he ends up taking a lot of punches and that is unnecessary punishment.

    Canelo would get even less credit for beating on this GGG.

    Yeah. He's at the end. There is no question about it.

    I thought he won 114-113. But he ran out to 3 point lead which means he did fade and he lost more than he won over final 10 rounds. I think he should hang them up now. He beat Canelo in my eye and had great run. He clearly in visible decline.

    GGG's heart is probably the size of a cantaloupe after training at high altitude for many years. I remember Joey Fatone said his heart was massive from over working it.

    Father Time catches up to everyone. GGG didn’t look good and should retire.

    You're right about Sergiy. He did more than enough to deserve a rematch. Thought he pulled it out by a round.
