    I'd say canelo is the better boxer, but ggg is the better fighter. I wrote out a long thing but decided to leave it at that.

    At 25 Canelo was KTFO James Kirkland and beating Miguel Cotto.

    At 25 GGG was beating Simon Mokoena.

    Pure boxing? Hard to see GGG being down on the cards to Khan halfway through a fight.
    Another good way of looking at it is this:
    Saunders, one of the most skilled boxers, ducked Golovkin to 'age him a bit', where as he has been wanting to fight prime Canelo for quite a while.

    On a basic level Canelo has a crappy tank, but clearly out boxes GGG when he goes all in. This is because GGG is a lot slower, but he makes up for it with his stamina and movement. Which is how he managed to stay competitive/out point Canelo. GGG used a steady pace and fought for whole rounds. He also had to fight using the only tool he could reliably hit Canelo with to do so most the fight (jab).


    Canelo has the better combos and defense. GGG has the better jab and movement. They're good at different things, and the physical advantages each has over the other makes it hard time gauge.

    You’re so stupid that you can’t even realize most professional fighters scored it for GGG too. Just go **** yourself and your girlfriend shadow , you are two ******ed mexicans that’s all.

    Too much emotion bro. You got some anger issues.

    I haven't disrespected you nor Golovkin. Settle your fragile ass down.

    Cotto and Kirkland > Mokoena

    No matter which way you cut it.

    Btw, did Malignaggi beat Cotto in GGGoonland or Pacland?

    Check how wrong you are. Your emotions get the best of you because:

    1. I can't say 100% that Canelo didn't use clenbuterol intentionally.
    2. Canelo did beat Golovkin. That is actually an undeniable fact.
    3. Oscar is probably one of the biggest pervs in the industry... Honestly I don't know, and I really don't give two shits if he is or isn't. None of my concern.

    You put Kirkland up as his Big Conquest....Kirkland was TKOd by Ishida...
    I was thinking you meant Jose Cotto not Miguel either are nothing to get excited about ''' I suggest you watch this..

    We wouldn't know. Golovkin was busy with Stevens, Ishida, Rosado, and Rubio.

    Rubio and Proksa are decent names for GGG and the way you’re speculating that GGG couldn’t beat those names LMAO you know he would just like I know Canelo would beat all of GGG’s opponents. My point is that going by who they beat isn’t a reason for who is the actual better boxer knowing who they both beat. I wanna know by looking at their actual attributes / skills.
