    You are right! Gennady is indeed bigger than Canelo and Canelo made a mistake.

    I think Canelos got this unfortunate case where he weighs more than he should based on his dimensions. Maybe he's got thick bones or something. I know a guy IRL, I'm pretty much a head taller than him and we look kinda the same build yet I barely weigh more than he does.

    Size won't be an excuse of Canelo loses. I just asked if anyone saw the size difference between the two. Canelo has a chance to do something special. Beat a naturally bigger man. GG has a chance to become the lineal mw champion of the world.

    Golovkin gives up size in most of his fights most recently three inches and close to twenty pounds on fight night vs Jacobs.

    Crickets!!!

    Golovkin has a one inch height advantage against a guy who rehydrates more in Cucknelo and people are having a collective conniption fit.

    Saying that OP isn't the sharpest knife is an understatement.

    Now that sounds like a preemptive excuse, that sort of thing is frowned upon around here

    Height does not come into play in this fight. GGG is 5' 10 1/2", Canelo 5' 9". Reach is the same at 70". What Canelo gives up in height he makes up in girth. He is the stockier, more compact fighter. And I will bet on fight night they will be within 5 pounds of each other, with Canelo likely the heavier fighter. Canelo is definitely not the smaller fighter.

    If you want to go that route, simpleton. We have tale of the tape measurements for both men. And guess what, your method you assumed would show GGG to be significantly larger actually shows Canelo to still have a size advantage in everything but height and reach. Canelo has been shown to weigh more and per the tale of the tape you just said we should be using, is shown to be larger proportioned.

    So lol...you have two choices now, apologize and admit to being wrong, or cut your own balls off, and become my new Dino Velvet.


    Canelo (source Smith fight)
    [url]http://notifight.com/cmsAdmin/uploads/canesm.jpg[/url]

    Height: 5'9"
    Reach: 72"
    Neck: 16"
    Chest: 43"
    Chest (exp): 44"
    Biceps: 16"
    Forearm: 14"
    Wrist: 8"
    Fist: 12"
    Waist: 32"
    Thigh: 24"

    Golovkin (source Brook fight)
    [url]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/05/e7/cf/05e7cfdcaa81ce46bba690dac8548fd6--gennady-golovkin-boxing.jpg[/url]

    Height: 5'10"
    Reach: 74"
    Neck: 16"
    Chest: 40"
    Bicep: 12.5"
    Forearms: 14"
    Wrist: 7"
    Fist: 11"
    Waist: 31"
    Thigh: 22"

    And btw, this form of tale of the tape is garbage. Because you often seen men with similar measurements separated by incredible amount of weight.

    You think Canelo can stay at 154?

    I've noticed it at the press conferences and face off. It isn't a massive difference to be honest but more noticeable than I'd expected
