What Irked me about Canelo-GGG 2....

Canelo's counters made him cautious of going to the body

https://i.makeagif.com/media/9-17-2018/GNgwAu.gif This is what i was looking for him to do CONSISTENTLY for the first 4 rounds.... This GGG stan think a rematch is not needed. barring Canelo pissing hot, he (Canelo) has his number.

Hagler vs. Hearns should have been his inspiration, Hagler right of the bat went straight for Hearn's body and even had to walk through fire and get countered for it to work. Plus Hearns was an even harder puncher than Canelo. I agree it was frustrating to watch.

Caught using the Triple L Protection Act....LMMFAO! Your boy Danny got whooped

GGG was scared of getting countered if he went to the body...Canelo is the far superior counterpuncher and everything GGG threw Canelo made him pay. GGG was too much of a ***** to go to the gutter where he needed to be

First page other then a couple of posters, is like a who's who of retards on boxingscene led by spastic robbiedopolous. And nobjockey j razor on page two. You on that dumb shet….LMMFAO! https://photo.boxingscene.com/uploads/canelo-golovkin-rematch%20(1).jpg https://photo.boxingscene.com/uploads/canelo-golovkin-rematch%20(2).jpg https://i.imgur.com/4sx2v5Y.gif

the answer is easy. GGG doesn't want to risk getting knocked out! Refused to go to the body in the first fight even when that's Sanchez fight style and he pleaded to him between rounds to go to the body. AFTER the fight the entire world asked why GGG didn't go to the body. Everyone said the second fight he has to go to the body. His trainer predicted a liver knockout. And once again GGG refused. He also backed up when Canelo gave him Mexican Style. GGG can't adjust 2 fights BOTH he was outlanded in power shots, 2 fights BOTH he had the lower connect rate, 2 fights BOTH his face was worse then Canelo after the fight, 2 fights he missed at epic levels 500 punches the first fight missed over 600 punches the second fight, Both fights no body punches from GGG for fear of being countered. All GGG can do is jab BECAUSE Canelo makes him that way! GGG made excuses for not landing enough clean hard shots in the first fight because Canelo ran. First fight Canelo whooped him off the back foot. Second fight same shyt but this time Canelo whooped him off the front foot and rearranged his face. Both fights Canelo does whatever he wants and lands his total array of punches (hooks, uppercuts, body shots, ect). Both fights GGG can ONLY jab and misses at insane levels. Canelo too fast, defense too good and GGG is scared of Canelo's counterpunching ability that's why he refuses to commit to body shots for fear of leaving his face open to something big and getting knocked out. good post truth

I think he was distracted by the huge gash above Canelos eye. Once that appeared, he had his "target" and didn't bother to throw anymore body shots. He was having success uppercutting Canelo throughout. Maybe he was hoping it would develop into another Rosado style fight

Golovkin is old and can’t make 160 even more Caught using the Triple L Protection Act....LMMFAO!

Is mostly about GGG headhunting INSTEAD of breaking down the body. WTF was he thinking. By the third Canelo made it clear that he was gonna stand his ground... BODY WORK break him down. NONE OF that at all. Canelo picked the right time to fight him and hence the win. At this point GGG should retire because his fight IQ seems to be aging as well at this point. Triple L lost to Jacobs & Nelo twice so what did you expect? LMMFAO!

Sure that puts you at risk, I mean its f#cking boxing there is inherent risk by just getting in the ring to get KTFO, but the payoff was there for GGG much more than for Canelo countering with that approach. In fact I think while Canelo would counter him early I think you shutdown Canelo's work rate & stamina to INSURE you don't get KO'd later & you could probably sweep the last 4 or so rounds with a good body attack early. Most of GGG's jabs was missing Canelo. And those were just simple jabs. There is no way GGG could land a meaningful body shot on Canelo without getting smack in the head first. He knows this, that's why he avoided throwing body shots.

True. I only remember Abel telling Golovkin to go to the body once in the entire fight and it was some vague throwaway comment, "ok but aim lower".

Golovkin is old and can’t make 160 even more

Body punching was a lost opportunity in both fights. Why you wouldn't work the body of a guy with known stamina problems is beyond my understanding. Too slow to go to the body. He'll get counter all night and possibly get tko in the later rounds if he tried that. There's a reason why fighter's who are known to throw body shots, stopped throwing when in with a different opponent. Same for Manny early on in his career, would throw 100+ punches per round but once he's in with marquez, his work rate decline.

GGG too slow to go to the body.

How can one's fighting style could be considered the Mexican fighting style when he abandons his opponent's body altogether completely? One of the hall mark's of the Mexican fighting style is that left hook to the liver; Something which Gennady Golovkin not once ever threw in 24 rounds of fighting.

I agree, perhaps GGG is too over confident as a headhunter. Canelo fought a smart fight and the difference could have been in the final rounds if GGG had consistently gone to the body for the first half of the fight.

Man i totally agree if GGG would have thrown 3 body shots a round he would have won.
