    Doesn't matter if he lost or not, at least he was willing to fight him

    He's fought all the slickest and toughest boxers out there like Trout, Lara and Mayweather by the age of 23 years old.

    Win or lose, Canelo will fight ANYONE even GGG.

    That's why BOXING FANS Love CANELO.

    I thought Canelo beat Trout 8-4 last time I saw it and Lara 7-5, the official scores were a bit wide for me doesn't mean he didn't legitimately deserve to win.

    Both fights ended with questionable punches the Walters shot and GGG shot were bordering on illegal.

    Well there it is, what can Golovkin do? It is getting to the point where he looks too good for his own good.

    Golovkin claims never to have been floored as an amateur or pro, is showing ridiculous power and is on a massive KO streak and has never looked like getting beaten. He has carved out a huge reputation for himself and it going to be a real struggle to get a top MW to fight him.

    Look at the MW division, can anybody see Strum, Martinez, Cotto or Quillin beating him at this moment in time? Who else is there?

    I think GGG is going to have to either move up or even move down to get big fights.

    I agree with you, but I do believe GGG could knock him out.

    Even though that was a **** stoppage. How GGG handled Rubio was impressive. Maybe Rubio was drained and didn't want to continue for that reason though. Still that was quite impressive to Rubio manhandled like that.

    What is golovkin's fight weight? Like 70 and change? He's about as big a Froch and Ward already. No reason he can't make the leap.

    Ditto! However, she looked like she was in love with GGG, lit up from ear to ear... Maybe she was just in love with that little fake left-hook, uppercut combo that made Rubio think GGG had a third arm stashed somewhere and setup the end of the fight.
