Oscar De La Hoya gave Canelo the blueprint for Floyd and failed. Hopkins gave Canelo the same blueprint he used for Trinidad. Lets see if he follows it again.
Tried that in rd 2 of the first fight. Maybe it'll work out this time.
I guess his other option is to exchange more. If he can't get ggg to stop backing him up, he probably won't be able to work enough. Relying on counterpunching didn't seem to be enough in the first fight.
he has to move his hands more...part of the reason he failed to do so was cuz of ggg's forward pressure. canelo needs to stand his ground early to set the tone imo.

The thing that’s sad is that GGG has to win by KO/TKO or else he’s losing on the cards. No way will they give the decision to GGG who likely has maybe 5 fights left in him after this one. Canelo is the young big money draw so he’ll be protected. For every round he actually wins will equal 2 won rounds on the judges scorecards so he only has to win 3 or 4 rounds at most & he’s guaranteed a win.
Because at range Canelo is better than GGG, and inside fighting, Canelo has the edge. So if canelo gets in close and varies his offensive attacks, he can pull off a Decision. Just as Kovalev was dangerous at medium range (where most of his ko's came) so Ward used distance and roughed him and his pyche up, with inside fighting. I think Canelo will use the same plan to get the victory.:boxing:
did you miss the first fight? ggg completely dominated him at range with his jab. the only time canelo had any success was when ggg tried to get close and unload power shots which allowed canelo to catch him from time to time.
canelo is not a clincher and he doesn't hold and hit like ward. not sure he can learn those illegal tactics in one camp
Canelo needs to grow some balls and throw more but if he does he knows he can and will get countered possibly getting knocked out. I expect him to be a bit more aggressive and get ko’d
Canelo showed he's faster, with better defense and overall boxing technique. He failed last time (or should have failed) by admiring his own defense and not fighting an intelligent fight. I believe his trainers will get it in his head this time that he can't do that and he'll win on points.
