    Now he has put some weight on you can really notice his Asiatic genes even more. I never really noticed it before even though I obviously knew his background.

    He also looks so "normal" now. Even has a receding hairline too.

    Hard to believe this guy was a straight up killer at MW for so long.

    ATG for me and a legend

    Enjoy retirement champ

    After his 2-1 record against fellow great Canelo, his legacy is sealed and he has nothing left to prove. Happy retirement champ!

    I’m glad he’s retired. There’s simply no point in taking a beating for just a few more bucks, not when you’re already well off and had a decent career to look back on. Unlike a lot of other guys who keep fighting when they should be retiring, GGG is making the right call.

    He should retire. Bested Canelo at least once (twice in my opinion). Only loss on his record coming from the third fight which was an obvious payday. No one has deserved a Canelo payday though more than GGG

    Man, Sergey Kovalev looked like a middle-aged truck driver during his prime, let alone in his 40s.

    Good on him. Don't recall a fight I saw him in that I didn't enjoy. Massive respect for this dude who always came to fight rather than dance. I never detected ambiguity in his game. Hope he becomes whatever it is he wants to become in his next career.

    This short clip gives 2 very important lessons in life: Never mess with someone you don't know well and don't judge a book by its cover.

    It's not a very flattering photo the jacket is too big for him making him look heavier.
    He has a net worth of around $30mill so can't blame him for retiring at his age.

    There were pictures about a month ago on x, twitter and he was wearing a t shirt, and he didnt look that fat. He looks slightly heavier than right before the first Canelo fight, you know, the promotion?

    I hope he stays retired. Look like he is done with boxing.
