GGG does not have to mind the trash-talk, he needs to focus on this fight and prove to the world that he can beat Canelo. Imagine if GGG will win here, that would give Canelo 2 losses in a row and will result in reducing his popularity. People will also remember that GGG is the better fighter between the two, so I understand why GGG is silent, it only says he will do the talking in the ring.
Yep, a good result is sweeter than a good words, if GGG can beat Canelo in this fight, I think many fans already stop to follow him since he can't prove if he's better than GGG. Not to mention how many bettors already lose when he fight Bivol before, they will be disappointed.
Maybe it's either Inoue, Crawford or Spence will become the best pound for pound boxer.
Light heavyweight also isn't a place where Canelo can easily beat the champion, it's a big challenge for him.
True, and I think because of the language barrier, GGG doesn't mind those trash talk, his seen better days when boxers trying to intimidate him by trash talking but in the end, he closes those big ass mount by either a TKO or KO victory.
There could still be bettors who are going to back up Canelo no matter what, just like the die hard fans of other boxers during their prime like Manny or Floyd.
This fight does not need trash talk to hype it, it was the fans who requested to see it and here it is, so I can say that it's going to be a sold-out fight and the fans will be entertained watching this. Canelo is the winner in the previous match but anything can happen here, GGG could win here and maybe retire to give Canelo a lesson that trash talking is bad.
It is in very bad taste when one is opposed to speaking like that before a match, perhaps that is why I have seen many people biased towards GGG, and it is as you say, this fight is taking place because the fans asked for it, but I think that Another fight is being given a little late, after each boxer had a failure against other opponents, and this in some way at least disappoints me a little, it would have been spectacular that these boxers could have faced each other but both with their previous fights already won, this had been much more exciting, at least I think it would have much more attraction, because it would be a fight of undefeated titans.
You got a point, Canelo is stll the cash cow of boxing, although eh lost to Bivol, he still commands a lot of fans to watch his fight and bring revenue to network and promotion.....
I like to think that boxing is Canelo's cash cow and he is milking it a lot in terms of revenues, his being a free agent makes it possible to make huge revenues, but the milk will not flow abundantly anymore if he loses this one, he is still boxing favorite to watch boxer even though he slides in the boxing pound for pound ranking, fighting Golovkin is a big challenge to him, he just comes out from a unanimous loss, and he is fighting someone who lasted a full 24 rounds, it's just the thought that GGG is now 40 years old and many think that father time is catching up and the hardship of boxing is now taking a toil in his body
Canelo has the overwhelming need to win, for now I see that many follow GGG but because they have a special affection for him, I cannot deny that GGG is a very good boxer, but when comparing Canelo I see that Canelo for now has very great reasons , one of them is to fight against Bivol again, he wants to get rid of the thorn, on the other hand if Canelo does not win, he would have to fight to have another fight with him, and I see that as very difficult, if this fight is almost over At the request of the fans, I don't want to imagine if it will happen again, I really didn't think it would happen, but apparently the federation is listening to the fans, something that seems very good to me.
. It is obvious that if the fight is close, Canelo would have a high possibility of winning. So GGG really needs to show the judges that he is a better boxer through the volume of clean punches if he can't KO Canelo. In short, GGG need to outbox Canelo by a mile.
