Golovkin v Alvarez rematch May 2018

[Master]

This is still the best and biggest match to be made in the division. Canelo proved he has a sturdy chin and boxed well at times with good combinations. I thought he would not survive to see the end of the fight but think he has the experience to survive again but take a beating in the process to lose more decisively.

I think it is possibly the best fight in the division but I’m not completely convinced that either of them beats Charlo, Saunders, or Jacobs (many people thought he beat GGG). Rather than a rematch since we all know who really won, I would rather them fighting other top fighters to see who the best really is.

It is unfinished business for GGG, he needs to right the wrong that happened.

After that GGG can take care of the contenders and pretenders. It is Canelo that has set the timetable for these fights happening.

And it is Golovkin who is dancing to his tune. There’s enough good MW’s out there to ignore Canelo/GBP’s antics. Canelo has only fought at the MW Limit once, and is unlikely to fight any of the better fighters in the division after this.
@powerpuncher hit the nail absolutely clean on the head.

Says the guy who always tells me that I should see the real world and business side in boxing.

You hypocrite.

But IT IS the business side. If Golovkin and the rest of the MW's boycott GBP/Canelo or make him fall in line and fight each other, then their legacies will be enhanced and the money will come.
By the same way , if Canelo keeps fighting circus shows at Caneloweight, that well will run dry . This was already starting to happen , hence he had to fight GGG.
I know you think GGG is the be all and end all of the division, and a couple of years ago he was, and I felt the same.
But fight on fight he is deteriorating and at his age you don't get spikes of improvement. The one most likely to improve from the last fight is Canelo.
Now I quite like Canelo, I really like GGG , but you can no longer hand on heart say that they are the best in the division. Consequently a rematch does nothing but line their pockets, and as idealistic as it is , I want to see the best fight the best and keep proving they're the best.
Golovkin used to do that, no doubt about it, But in fighting Brook and Canelo he isn't doing it.
As big a cunt as old fishnets is, he may well have just about timed this to perfection.

Hand on heart, Golovkin is by some margin the best in the division. People are taking the fact that he did not KO Jacobs as some daft reason to ignore everything he has achieved so far. He won that fight and quite clearly too. He beat Canelo and whilst I am a huge BJS fan, I think Golvkin still beats him. He is not old, just not 25..bloody whippersnappers who think life ends at 30

It's official! Big fucking deal.

Box Nation had it ppv, wonder which TV company will show this fight.

[powerpuncher]

It should be another good fight, but I’m not happy about these two guys trying to hold up the division for a year before fighting other worthy opponents.

Should be a good fight.
