And fans won't get a decisive winner without any BS with the corruption in Vegas and the home chosen refs,judges and TV commentators being bought off. Why should GGG risk his legacy for some guy not even on his level? **** Canelo. GGG beat him clearly tonight, he's nothing else to prove. 93% of this boxing board think GGG won as well. Its just some of the more fanatical fans such as yourself calling for a rematch so GGG can get screwed.
I think there would be too much money in a rematch to take even a small risk it could be derailed by fights in between, I would imagine around late next April - May would make sense.
Look, I'd be very interested to see a rematch, I'm not against, I just wonder if maybe one interim fight to build it up again might be more interesting. Besides there's a lot of good talents in the MW division now, I wonder if one of them might be as good as GGG/Canelo.
Good, but why would they need an interim fight build it up again? It's already been built up, they should continue fighting until there is a decisive winner. If GG takes on somebody even if he wins it's just going to fuel the excuses that he's even more past his prime yet. This is the biggest rivalry in boxing right now and this is a much more desirable fight than any other fight in the division. I don't see how either fighter can move on to other fighters after a fight like that.
It was a close yet controversial fight. Exciting to watch and the odds will probably be a lot closer next time. The PPV results will more than likely be the deciding factor as to how soon the rematch will take place.
He already won, and I lost 3,500 on Canelo. I'm not a GGG fan, hell the first viewing I had Jacobs beating GGG, I'm far from a GGG fanboy. But he won this fight convincingly, a rematch does nothing but give Vegas a chance to screw another non-American fighter. And before you say it I'm American, I am just able to tell the truth even if the truth doesn't look good towards American establishments.
OK, I know you are in denial about this, but the fact is that the fight was declared a draw. That's different than a win. G did not win. Canelo did not win. It's a draw, a tie, a fight where there is no winner. So saying somebody won when somebody didn't is not accepting of reality. Neither G or Canelo are American fighters, if we're talking about fighting Floyd in Vegas, I could understand you're argument, but we're coming off of a fight where nobody was screwed since nobody lost. Nobody already won, hence the need (more than any other scenario) for an immediate rematch.
Canelo did do well. He faded in the 5-6th exactly on cue, and by the 9th (my pick for the KO) I was thinking that I was a genius. Instead, Saul gathered his courage and fought back well for the last few rounds. There's nothing worse than when you're dying of exhaustion inside and your limbs feel like lead, to have to gather your resources for a final sprint. Now put Golovkin, who's a machine, into the picture, pounding and stalking you. But canelo did it. I'm impressed.
Areas to improve: Canelo: stamina and workrate. Golovkin: snappier jab, work the body more, don't start slow.
Strongly disagree. Canelo was the only one throwing and landing body punches. Canelo landed the harder uppercut, G was much more marked up in the face and his corner had to put icepacks on his body in between rounds.
I don't care what the Vegas officials scores were, GGG won you are in a very small minority not me. There is no reason to rematch a guy you clearly beat, all a rematch does is give Vegas the chance to screw GGG again probably with a loss the second time even if he clearly wins 9-10 rounds instead of 7-8 this time. **** decisions happen all the time, it doesn't mean we have to put any stock behind them. You and the other 10% of the public in the minority can say what you want, it makes no difference to me. I know who the winner was, and I don't need to see part 2 when part 1 had a conclusive ending to 90% of the people that watched including myself. Just like Whitaker gets credit from the boxing community for beating Chavez when it was called a draw, that's how this one will be remembered. GGG should unify with BJS, then rematch Jacobs (which was closer than this fight) then have a retirement fight with the winner of the WBSS SMW winner to try to be undisputed in a second weight class then walk off into the sunset. Once again **** the rematch, unless it's in neutral territory (which it won't be) there is no point in giving Golden Boy and the NSAC another chance to **** him over.
Comparing this to Sweet Pea Chavez is laughable. That was a majority draw, this was a split draw, with Canelo having more judges points. Understand that Canelo has retained the Lineal and Ring Championship so if G does what you’re suggesting he wouldn’t be the Man and to be the Man you need to Beat the Man which Triple G hasn’t done. You sound terrified of a rematch, you’re worried that Canelo will win. Based on what I saw last night, if I were a G fan, I’d be worried too. (based solely on what I seen in the ring)
