    But you can't talk about weak resumes (especially Canelo's which is excellent) and not admit GGGs isn't the greatest?

    I honestly think GGG beats Canelo easily above 158lbs.156-157 would be 50-50 and 155 and below is all Canelo.

    Canelo isn't much bigger than Kell Brook tbf

    Canelo is probably 2 to 3 inches shorter than Kell and add to that he barely made the MW limit and was 170 a few weeks before the GGG fight, and Brook looked the bigger of the two when comparing them in their Matthew Hatton matches.

    Jr. is an unproven, euro-level, nobody. No wonder his father didn't let him get in there with Golovkin, his career would've been over before it even began.
    Canelo wouldn't even waste time trying to negotiate with them.
    Jr. fights with his hands low so Canelo would have a field day with feigns, jabs, and hooks. He would land at will on that maddafocker.

    In terms of danger, I rate Brook who is prime and even Lemioux as more dangerous than anyone Canelo has beaten.

    GGG can't be blamed for his resume where Canelo can for his.

    I hope Brook and Canelo takes place because I firmly believe Brook will win unless that eye injury flares up. I personally want to see the best fight each other, PPV sells etc ''fans'' of the sport shouldnt even argue about we discuss their finances and make excuses for them based on these things, fan pressure should dictate fights not money and until fans stop using ''A'' side and B side analogies to keep this going boxers will avoid each other.

    True we only debate the $$$ because in most cases it is the main reason fights don't take place.

    Fighters wanting bigger splits has nothing to do with fear. Quite the opposite tbf fighters get a sense of pride taking the bigger share not to mention setting themselves up for life.

    Not to say we can't debate the situation but no Fighter is above criticism. Look at Canelo and this GGG situation, before that he was a boss and now he's getting slammed. I don't think that's fair at all but many here delight in it. Each to their own I suppose.

    I would love to see fans turn on boxers to get rid of this. I see threads on hear talking about PPV and draws and it's sickening that it's now part of the sport and a reason why older boxers will always be considered greater, it's become easy for boxers to avoid the toughest tests and you get people defending it. Really the fighter who wins should be given the greater split, or the fighter that is the champion if there is only one and a cap should be in place for the percentage.

    Eubank is not likely to be fighting Canelo anytime soon so it a hypothetical question really at this stage.
    Eubank seems to be stalled at the moment, and he might be gone to 168 by the time Canelo might be interested in him.
