Sorry, your wrong. I don't have Twitter and I was watching boxing when you were in diapers. Cotto had excellent power throughout 4 weight divisions and is a great Champion, but Golovkin is a better middleweight puncher than Cotto.
I'd say he is a bit underrated. After the Jacobs fight, people saw how beatable he was if a fighter had certain attributes, so his being hugely overrated brought him back down to Earth. He has two close fights with Canelo, officially a draw and a loss. Now he is way underrated and Canelo is hugely overrated. Both fights were close and the large majority in both fights had GGG winning. So how does Canelo's rating get hugely inflated by getting two gifts? His status is what it is because he "beat" GGG, so his status would not be what it is without that "win."
Funny thing is, it wasn't even a real challenge. 3G was asked about Floyd in an interview, so naturally 3G said yes. And from there on out...EVERY Floyd fanatic hated 3G. little drama queens... no wonder they'd flock to floyd.
GGG was calling out Mayweather at 154, so what was the Problem Ggg coming down to 155 against Canelo?? Especially since Canelo was the A side? Canelo did what Mayweather wanted because he was the A side and took risks, True is ggg never wanted to take risks, He only wanted Mayweather because he was almost 40 years old.
There were no big names at 168lbs except Ward and he went up, to win by robbery to over another Russian Kovalev. Seems to be a trend here. Golovkin is appreciated by many because he is a powerhouse with a granite chin and makes exciting fights ,while they last.He is also humble. While Mayweather while being great, is arrogant. He is the original deceiver of the public with his sudden conviction to clean up boxing after watching Pacquiao dismantle the Great Cotto. Floyd said to himself, "oh hell no" i ain't fighting this guy, and put off fighting Pacquiao for 6 years. After shuckin and jivin the public for 6 years he finally fights Pacquiao. Then new deceiver came along, who learned from Mayweather and that was Canelo, and the boxing public was sick of the delay tactics originally modeled by Mayweather then being practiced by Canelo and Golden boy. To each their own.
No, he wasn't calling out Mayweether. 3G was asked about Mayweather in an interview dumbass. And that was it. They didn't try to pursue a fight or anything. Hell, even Andre ward said he'd go down some to face Floyd. At one point, EVERYONE on the board agreed CW's should not be used for title fights. Hell, you whine about Pac fighting Cotto at 145, fighting Margarito at 152 or whatever. You even claim Pac tried to DRAIN Cotto by dropping him one pound from his prior fight. So what's the difference here? Now because it's canelo, it's OK to try and drain someone, AND TO fight for the world title BELOW THE LIMIT? So, DID Canelo attempt to drain 3G by insisting they fight at 155? That's a simple yes or no that you keep hiding from.
GGG would have gone to 154 for Mayweather. But we all know that Floyd is a lot of talk about "easy work" and then he fights debut fighters like Conor freaking McGregor instead
Canelo as a 154lbs fighter out weighed the middleweight champ on fight night consistently, of coarse he was trying to drain GGG. As we can now see Canelo is not the smaller man.
