    Yup. I don't give a shit either.

    It's not even the best fight to be made at 160.

    I'd MUCH MUCH rather see Jacobs-Charlo than Golov-Canelo II.

    I think history will remember BOTH Golovkin and Canelo as overrated.

    Oscar to Golov "Good luck with Derevenchenko."

    Well yes Oscar, he'll need it... considering Derevenchenko is a better fighter than your boy.

    I wonder who they'll line up for Clenelo after Spike... a James Kirkland rematch?

    Yeah, Dela Killed His Own Attenpted Shit Talk By Mentioning the Mandatories AND O’Sullivan in the Same Fucking Breath.

    Would Be Shocking if Spike ISNT the Sacrificial Lamb In September, Assuming Triple G Doesn’t Back Off 50-50.

    Which Would Be PITIFUL...

    One of them is a bit more overrated than the other.

    If that is true then it's pretty solid grounds for a 50-50 split tbh.

    To be honest I'm not that fussed about seeing Jacobs Vs anyone. He is good of course, big, skilled, has power etc - but he's not the most exciting fighter, or compelling to watch.

    I'd much rather see Golovkin against Charlo.

    Even if he doesn't get purse parity, GGG would make more facing Clenelo than these other guys. I know it can be frustrating not getting treated the way you think you should, but he should accept the fight and take off his frustration on canelo

    Yes, Clenelo will ultimately be remembered as merely a good fighter who had the benefit of a powerful promoter and Mexican/HBO hype machine to make him seem a lot better than he truly is

    Golovkin has a bit of leverage here. he is the biggest payday around for alvarez. alvarez can face guys like OSullivan and other scrubs if he wants and he'll make great money.

    but now that he is at middleweight what credible opponents does he have? same guys golovkin has and they are all good enough to beat alvarez.

    he is older so that is a factor but ultimately alvarez and his team would probably prefer a rematch than to face charlo or jacobs for half the payday, if that.

    There's five guys at middleweight BESIDES Golovkin who I'd pick to beat the Ginger: Jacobs, Charlo, Andrade, Derevenchenko, and Saunders.

    So they lose the first fight, then get the second one scrapped due to PED's and after all of that they're offering 5% more. lmao

    i suspect golovkins team would take 40%

    They should demand 100%.

    Welp... that about explains it, and that's what I figured. A crossdressing cokehead and a ped cheat aren't the most trustworthy duo.

    Fuck em! Karma is coming for the juicing Ginger soon enough. He ain't good enough to reign at 160.

  22. He isn´t even good enough to warrant the noun of ´legacy´, as proposed by this thread.

    I mean, seriously, a Mexican with fucking ginger hair?

    GGG and Canelo are brave guys who are not looking to maximize every single penny at the expense of their legacies. They aren't Floyd. The fact that Canelo fought GGG in the first place, and Lara before that, proves that Canelo isn't a bitch.

    Now maybe Canelo decides to take an easier fight than GGG before a rematch. A year without fighting might be too long for him. But, even if they don't rematch in September, assuming both keep winning or not, it wouldn't surprised me to see them fight the Cinco de Mayo 2019 weekend. I also think that Canelo/Golden Boy will accept 50/50.

    AC Slater was also in Colors.

    I don’t get what the deal was with the Ginger Cholo when Don Cheadle does the drive by. He’s acting like he’s being shot, but he’s totally fine afterwards.

    Clenelo's legacy is about as ruined as D'Antoni's coaching career

    Canelo is stuck. He’s probably not able to make 154 without putting himself through absolute HELL... And at 160, he seems to not have the natural size for the weight class. And he’s proven he’s not a big puncher at the weight too.

    I think he needs Golovkin to attempt to redeem himself because I wouldn’t favor him over any of the other guys.
