    Golovkin

    1. Because he is EXTREMELY hypocritical
    2. He is bringing Brook up to 160, Khan was brought up only to 155
    3. Golovkin is a true MW and Canelo was a 154 lber
    4. Khan's speed was his only chance Brook has nothing superior to Golovkin
    5. Khan was at least taller than Canelo, Brook is smaller in every way than Golovkin

    I'm expectin Khan to make the Garcia fight tbh. Easy fight for Danny G and a decent payday.

    It is debatable but most rank Brook top.

    Nah for me both were **** fights. Is it better to face a top 5 WW at a catch weight or a top 3 at the full weight? For me the former but there isn't much in it.

    And the coverse, all those who defended the Canelo Khan fight ****tin on this. Typical fanboyism though so no one is surprised really. Only us neutrals stay consistent.

    Answer these two questions:

    1. Who do you thin would win? 3G or Alvarez?
    2. Who do you thin would win? Brook or Khan?

    For me the main difference is Canelo v Khan, GGG wanted Canelo ( big fight , big money )

    Canelo didn't want the fight

    Brook ( or Eubank ) is the next biggest payday GGG will get right now as Uk can pay these big purses

    Canelo could've have taken a big fight with GGG but opted for Khan

    GGG has not swerved a dangerous opponent/big payday ( there is not one available ) this time to take on a little opponent/big payday

    Eubanks didnt want the fight against Golovkin.
    Golovkin didnt seek a smaller guy like Canelo did.

    Lara, Trout, Ward 168, Canelo 155, or at least pay a top Jr. MW or a top SMW something worth their while for them to move to GGGs division, or ffs just move up or down in weight already if there is nothing at 160.

    The same

    On the one hand Golovkin vs Brook is more of a mismatch. Brook is taling a bigger jump up in weight. Khan at least had speed over Canelo, was similar in height and was able to win rounds.

    On the other hand Brook is at least a champion at welterweight. The actual difference in natural size and fight night weight will probably be similar in both fights. Canelo also ducked Golovkin to fight Khan whereas Golovkin struggles to get opponents.

    Ward and Canelo could certainly not have taken the place of this fight though.

    Canelo was worse because Khan has been knocked out multiple times and Golovkin comes in like 15 pounds heavier than he weighs in. Brook has never lost yet, so we really don't know how he will do. But I bet he gets knocked out

    Hmmm... hard to say. both are crrrrap but Khan has been dropped and wobbled and has his chin shattered into bits, where Brooks chin is still intact and has not really been busted up.

    This reminds of that South Park episode where the voting options were a giant douche and a turd sandwich.
