In an interview he gave to theEl Nuevo Herald, Gennadiy Golovkin left politics and kindness behind and went for the jugular of Canelo Alvarez. He spoke about his opinion of the Mexican’s publicly confirmed rejection of him and the Guadalajara idol’s place among the best boxers in the world.

His behavior at press conferences shows how insecure he is, how he still lives in illusions about the situation, the stories…. For a boxer of this caliber, someone who wants to be great, it shows he still needs to grow, needs to learn a lot. He’s a long way from being the best,” stated GGG.
