Golovkin slams 'clown' Alvarez after heated weigh-in
Gennady Golovkin labelled Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez a "clown" after a heated weigh-in on Friday.
After both made weight, Alvarez rushed at Golovkin for the traditional stare down, briefly putting his forehead against the unfazed Kazakh's.
Golovkin (38-0-1) will defend his WBA (Super), WBC and IBO middleweight titles at T-Mobile Arena in a rematch of their drawn fight from a year ago.
The 36-year-old hit out at Alvarez's antics at the weigh-in, promising a "war" on Saturday.
"I saw he is like a clown, he is like a showman, he is not a true guy," Golovkin said.
"Tomorrow, you'll see a real war. This is not a fight, this is not a regular fight, [it's] like a special war."
Alvarez (49-1-2) is fighting for the first time since facing Golovkin a year ago, having served a six-month drugs ban.
The Mexican accepted he got slightly carried away at the weigh-in, saying: "Look, I got excited from seeing all the fans and it motivated me to do that right now.
"I defeated him at the weigh-in, now it's time for me to defeat him on Saturday."

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

I question Canelo's sanity: 'I defeated him at the weigh in'. You fell off your chair and acted like a tool. For the sake of decency knock this guy the fuck out. He is horrible for boxing. As is fishnets.

Can not remember a fighter so hated, despised or people wanted to see lose as much as Canelo.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

My mate has just invited himself round to mine, I've had to let him know in no uncertain terms that there will be no drinking because I am watching the villa at 5:30pm and then I'm staying up for the fight.
No doubt he will try and get me to have a drink but there is no chance of it happening today, he can come round and sit quietly in the corner but he ain't disrupting my plans

Why all the hate?

He's hate-able.

Because he's like Oscars douchey little parrot. Echoing all the nonsensical tough talk to try and convince himself that he has this in the bag. If you listen to both it's rewording of the same sentiments. Canelo can't think for himself and he has Oscar's hand jammed so far up his chuff that he'll accept anything Oscar has to say because it makes him feel better about himself. It also feels like he gets off on talking smack in the moment when his opponent and the announcers can't understand him or call him on it.
They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

Yes, Canelo is a protected, connected, cheating bully and a wanker ...... but he's also a very good fighter
