By Askhat Bapiev: It’s not smart to feed your vain hope and rely only on luck that one day you’re going to get what you wanted. I mean in all great boxing tales there is only one fight that absolutely can change the course of personal legend of any boxers and forever.

And we are talking about the fight which can make the world learn your name or forget you as a boxer at a such tender age.

Saul “Canelo” Alvarez is a kind of boxer who can show the world your current condition, how good or bad are you. So in the clash between former middleweight champion Canelo Alvarez and middleweight champion IBF, IBO, WBA, WBC Gennady “GGG” Golovkin, we could easily find out what credit does GGG deserve? And why exactly Canelo was given so much privilege to emphasize the importance and greatness of GGG?

This role had to play by a man with great power and hard hitting fight style. Who is able to run less and fight more, Andre Ward runs more and fight less.
Who is the same size as Gennady (Miguel Cotto is just unable to handle this power) So in this case we could analyze GGG’s speed, power, physical condition, stamina and animation that modern boxers just need to have.

In order to define someone’s weakness and dignity, you necessarily have to be a part of this event and firstly you have to face yourself in front of the toughest opponent of your life only then you can judge your own abilities and truly be blessed to be part of this ‘one punch performance.’ But it seems to me that the ability to grab the tail of the white swan was gone. Because as we know the belt (WBC) already belongs to Golovkin and unfortunately Canelo doesn’t burn with passion to be part of this party.

This play can’t be staged only by one participant but the list of key players is still long.
Golovkin’s promoter Tom Loeffler said to espn.com, “I can’t put Gennady’s career on hold waiting for an answer!” So it’s time to open up, to open another chapter.
