    Ward is a light heavyweight. It's like saying Why doesn't Ward jump up two weights to fight Joshua?

    Both jacobs and Canelo failed in their attempts vs a washed up 35 year old. Both guys ran and were scared of the power. Back to caneloweight for Alvarez vs guys more on his level. He tried stepping up to win the titles but came up short and his own fans bood him for not fighting like a Mexican. Tragic night for his career vs an old man

    Ward was at 168 when he called out Golovkin.

    Ward wasn't fighting anyone. He had contract issues. But even if he did call out a guy in the division below him they are still in different weight classes

    As we're Golovkin and Canelo but Alvarez stepped up and made it happen. He had the balls to do what Golovkin didn't and you can't dispute that.

    No, I don't think that GGG can get better. If anything, he will have slightly declined a bit further by the time they next fight.

    However, I don't think he NEEDS to get better.

    In my view, he gave away the first three rounds by starting a bit tentatively and getting outboxed. If he starts at the same relentless pace that he showed from the 4th to the 10th, his route to victory is to wear Canelo down.

    Whether he will be able to do that over 12 rounds at age 35 is going to be the big question for the rematch.

    Canelo had to go up in weight because he can not make 154lb legally and fairly. The fat fucks last fight before GGG was at super middleweight.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Nice story but it was only a year ago that Canelo made 154 to fight Smith for the WBO title so what you're saying simply isn't true. Just be honest and admit your boy was scared of Ward and stop making all these ridiculous excuses.

    His previous fights were at middleweight and he gets some help to make weight fighting at home.

    Surely the real question is can Canelo get any better? What Golovkin did by consensus was good enough to win the fight and win it pretty handily. It's Canelo that needs to find a bit more, but from where? Unless Golovkin deteriorates rapidly, Canelo now knows what every sane person knew going into the fight. There aint a cat in hells chance of him chinning the fucker, so he needs to go the long way around. His constant back peddling was not of his own doing, he was in retreat for most of the fight because he had no choice. The 35 year old who they hoped would be a little more shop worn, had too much engine for him and he couldnt compete.

    It's Canelo that needs to make changes. Or.......do what they've been doing for the past couple of years and hope Golovkin fades enough to get the win at the second attempt.
