    No offense to MVC, but if I had a troll alt account, I'd be far more clever than him. He's shot and passed his prime. Farmy remains The Heart & Soul of ESB!!!

    Viva Farmy!

    I can see a lot of nostalgia bias in here.

    If GGG couldn't knock Canelo out, I highly doubt Hagler would have been able to. I am not picking anyone here but I am just pointing out a lot of you are underestimating Canelo and as always overrating American has beens.

    But when you really look at Farmys posts theres a lot of truth in what he says. He does go over the top a bit but hes right about Bennett, the NSAC
    & Vegas. Would you buy a used car from them ??

    Canelo relies on being able to spook his opponents a little with his 'stopping' power, get them to wince at the prospect of his counters. That would not trouble Marvin in the slightest. Plus he would be more than content peppering Saul on the outside with that lovely right jab.

    I don't see a route to victory for the Irish-Mexican.

    But but GGG beats Hagler and GGG couldn't not even land more than three significant punches on Canelo.

    Oscar would marinate that fight until Hagler is past prime.

    Oh I ain’t sure about that Isal,Hagler v GGG both in their prime would be something else mind you but you’re talking about an ageing Golovkin right?

    A juiced up primo Golovkin is a different animal to the guy you see now,have you seen him lately Isal,Counter Punch boxing(a real GGG nut) just done a vid about Golovkins knees.He said he’d been told by someone who supposedly had some inside info on the state of his knees and they are always wrapped up and his legs look skinny now.
    I never thought that two fights later after Liam Smith fight that it would make any difference,obviously better competition will make him seem worse but he looks like he’s ready to lose and possibly by knock out.
    Oscar say what you like about the guy knows his boxing through and through and has delivered GGG at a time that’s acceptable to fans and opportunistic for Canelo as appose to the (probably juiced)primo GGG around time of Lemieux and I’ve no problem with this as it’s just how boxing goes with the old Champion passing on the torch,I think Golovkin gets this just as Wlad did with Joshua.

    Lol when did you ever think you’d say that?Canelos always been big for Junior Middleweight and was cutting loads of weight but there’s two pics out there side by side taken about only a year apart,I think ones from when he fought Liam Smith at 154lb and the other before the first Golovkin fight and honestly it’s quite disturbing how different he looks,you’d think it was his big brother or something as his torso appears to be twice as wide,his arms look double the size with striated sinuey muscles around the shoulders and he’s got these mad wing like things under his arms lol,even his head has been the subject of conversation with this tainted Beef psy op as his jaw seems to have doubled in size and he’s competing with Povetkin(Blizzy calls him Headvetkin lol)on who has the biggest cranium in boxing.

    As Box Nation put it he’s an absolute Barrel of a man,what a feat if GGG knocked him out but I don’t see it happening as this new improved Juice head Canelo looks unshakeable to me.
    I tell you what will be interesting?him making weight at the weigh in.Canelos weigh ins are an event itself and last time even his weigh in at 160lb looked decidedly dodgy but with the money at play I just think GGG and K2 keep their mouths shut not unlike his dodgy hand wraps.
