    This is an interview from yesterday. Very interesting and entertaining. Speaks on Canelo inviting him into the ring, what he thought of Khan/Canelo, and - for all you haters - Ward.

    Love reading this translation GGG can't express himself when he speaks english as he wants you get a real feel of his character when he speaks his language

    My fav part

    Gennady, first, I would like to say that your entrance into the ring was quite unexpected...
    GGG " I was sitting in the front row. Canelo invited me into the ring, and I agreed thinking that he wanted to say something to my face or maybe to announce something. But there was nothing. Most likely, his team did not expect that I would go up there. They tried to keep Canelo as far as possible from me"

    Yeah, he said that in English too right after the Canelo/Khan fight when he was being mobbed by media. Said they all acted scared.

    Yes. The interview was by one of the close members of the team who is also a journalist, Zhanar Utesheva, and then translated for fans by @adil_4_real on twitter, a boxing fan who lives in Khazakstahn.

    I know, sounds a lil different than what most fans hear with broken english.

    Man it's so strange to read coherent responses from GGG, they should do more Russian interviews with him, you get a much better perspective of his opinions that way.

    Thanks a lot, I enjoyed this interview :good

    I liked these bits:

    - Maybe you can then say a few words on Carl Froch?

    - I do not know what to say about him. This is a man whose wife makes the decisions for him. That's all.

    and

    "- How can I force this man (ward) to fight me if he does not want to fight? I'm just focused on other things, and I don’t feel proving anything to anyone on that matter."

    Lol, sure, he's focused in smashing tomato cans, he has no time at all.

    Sure, you dont have anything to prove, nothing at all. 1039345 tomato cans are more than enough.

    GGG is a smart cat. He can't express himself in english.
