    He followed Canelo around.

    Look, lets be real about GGG. He's an excellent fighter, he can bang, and if you stand infront of him, he will likely have the upperhand. He looked very good against the Monroes and the Stevens, against those kind of opponents is where he got his reputation of being this KO machine. As soon as he stepped up in competition, his first true test against a top skilled fighter (with a questionable chin btw) in Jacobs, not only does he fails to win convincingly. Ok, its boxing, it happens, we can give him the benefit of the doubt, but then in his next real test against Canelo (who was new to MW) again he fails to hurt is opponent and has another close fight.

    All I'm saying is that you and many GGGoons have been wrong about GGG many time. From him easily KO "china chinned Jacobs (not necessarily my words, the GGGoons)" to him him desposing of Canelo via KO, never came remotely close. You call a non title fight at 155 ridiculous, but shamelessly justify a fight with Ward at 164. Condemned Canelo for fighting a WW, again shamelessly justify GGG for fighting a WW at the full 160 limit.

    I think its safe to say that you're probably wrong again if you're suggesting GGG beats Mayweather, the best fighter of this Era.

    Here is some food for thought if you 100% truly think GGG beats Mayweather. Canelo is the closest fighter to match Mayweather's level of skill.

    No, the 155 demand after the ducking, aka vacating the green belt so they WONT fight, was just to try to save face. They knew already Triple G wouldnt go down for Canelo. I think that was clear as crystal for everyone

    Is Canelo a champ ? I think he is
    but he needs one of those belts ( either IBF or WBA), so yea his options are limited, unless he wants to fight Charlo or Derevyanchenko, or Lemieux....but for what ? And if he makes those fights there will always be pressure on him to make the Golovkin rematch no matter what ( from Mexicans)

    And GGG is guaranteed to make millions in each of his fights until he retires, which isnt that bad, he's already set, the Canelo rematch is just the icing on the cake for him financially,


    Canelito blew it the first time and now Oscar has to pay more if he wants another shot at those belts, it isnt rocket science. How much I dont know, but I doubt its anything outrageous or we would've heard, so my guess is both Loeffler and Oscar play hard to get what they want. I think Tom may ask for 50-50 to get 55-45 and Oscar tries the same money like last time, only to have to pay a little extra to seal the deal. So we'll see who wins this battle

    The first point we can agree. GGG knew that Canelo would eventually move up to 160, he gambled and it paid off well. The annoying part was that he had been champion several years and had not had a real challenge, yet said he would fight anyone from 154-168, but for Canelo and Ward it was 160 or nothing and 164 or nothing.

    If Ward had agreed to 164 the titles would have been on the line without a shred of doubt because that is within the limits of the weightclass and within the rules of ghe sanctioning organization, and if by pure chance GGG triumphed over Ward, he would have happily accepted the titles.

    So in essence when you and the GGGoons criticize Canelo fpr requesting a CW with no titles on the line, your criticism extends to Golovkin for also doing the same thing Canelo did, except with titles on the line.

    He missed his opportunity against Ward, so the fear was he

    Read my last post.

    As for the rematch. I bet you the deal was already made even before the first fight. GBP and K2P are just getting people to talk about the fight. Its called promoting.

    No, not this time. And you see its very quiet in the press regarding CaneloGGG 2 compared to last time, you dont see quotes from Oscar or Eric as often as last year. And if I we're to believe Tom Loeffler he said recently something like "the rematch could've been signed in the week folowing the first fight"....but because of possibilty of Golden Boy getting the WBO belt they didnt make any deal before Dec 16. I do believe Canelo vs Lemieux would've happen on Cinci de Mayo this year, and then Canelo vs GGG for all the belts, in an ideal world.

    Its still early they will agree in the next few weeks I have no doubt.
    Good talking to you

    Um...because he was often asked in interviews about Mayweather? Just like anyone else within range of Floyd's weight.

    Dude...you really cannot be this dense. One of the two would provide a significantly larger purse. Want to guess which one?

    Another (non) trick questions:
    If 3G fought Floyd at 154, and canelo at 155, WHICH one would actually be at the allowable weight limit of the division? Feel free to think about this for a little.

    It's like that with this clowns they won't aceppt GG turn down Canelo at 155 but was very brave in fighting Mayweather at 154!! When they know GG would've made huge money with Canelo aside from Mayweather

    Of course he fights for money. WTF kind of childish, noob comment is this? Let me guess...this is one of those where a poster or two said 3G fights for his legacy (WHICH THEY ALL DO IN A SENSE JACKASS...) But they all are fighting for a purse., not for free or some fanboy's perceived legazcy crap. Get real... and try to pick your battles better FFS...

    It will be waste a time you guy's will come with a excuse after excuse and so on.. Point is GG was willing on fighting someone at that weight but for some reason was NOT interesting in Canelo ONLY at 160 ??
