Does he look a little thicker in the stomach area than previously?
Pretty old school training but he looks solid. Who is is strength and conditioning coach?
Usually not a good sign or idea when fighters decide to split with long time trainers 'His move to leave his long time trainer is just showing that he doubting himself, and is searching for something' I have seen this with David Haye & Ricky Hatton most vividly in recent years.
It's not a good sign for the trainer when numerous other fighters have also left. It's clear now that Sanchez doesn't come up with game plans and doesn't work on too many things in camp. It's mostly about strength and cardio and not so much fundamentals. It's actually probably for the better that GGG left him. Whether he still has enough to compete at the top of the sport remains to be seen.

Actually Sanchez never said post fight that he saw Canelo beat GGG. He said at the post fight conference that he had it a draw, that Canelo fought a great fight (in comparison with the first one, he did) and that he wouldn't cry the judges decision. Then days later he said that based on other people's opinion that supported his point of view, he had GGG winning 7-5.
Those are the facts. What Canelo fans say now... different story.
True story but idk, I swear some Canelo posted a vid of him in an interview saying GGG lost and that what the trainer says is true must be true!
I also had GGG 7-5 in the 2nd fight. Let's just hope GGG isnt too old to make a come back.
Definitely true, but just don't think that was the case this time especially with the fall out.
Sandchez told GGG he was losing when his only advice seemed to be, go forward and eat punches and club Canelo to death. Mexican style.
Not a smart idea when the guy in from of you is much quicker and almost as powerful as you.
Then after the fight, despite a lot of people also believing GGG won or it was close Sanchez publicly admits certain defeat when the fight was razor thin. And then a couple months later GGG drops him to learn new things? If GGG did short change Abel then it was definitely because of hard feelings. Both dudes straight up looked inseparable but something came between them and I doubt it was just money.

I think it's obvious sometimes trainers tell their fighters they are losing to motivate them to give the extra mile and try to secure as many rounds as possible at the end when the fighters are already very tired.
You can't read much unto that.

:thinking: So now that he has a new trainer & he beats his weak opponent will his new training get credit? But when Nelo blasts him away again will the old excuse come right back for the credit?? :lol1:
While I would use different training methods than those depicted in these video clips, simply eyeballing GGG's physique he looks in much better shape than he has in recent years; the flat/depleted look is gone; hopefully this will translate into a GGG who looks rejuvenated in the ring as well.
That's exactly what i noted, think the extended layoff helps between fights although when younger g was sharpest fighting 3 to 4 times a year.
After GGG split with Sanchez I started to speculate that GGG was looking to box and do more than what he was doing with sanchez.
In Canelo/GGG2 Sanchez was on camera telling GGG he was losing I think after round 8 because he wasnt going forward and I was pretty confused because at that time I think I had it a draw and it was WAY closer than Sanchez was implying.
GGG only came back in that fight because he started to box and people, including myself and I'm a fan, criminally underrated his boxing skill. After finding success against Canelo I think he wants to capitalize on that. GGG can tire Canelo with his pressure/work rate and be a better boxer. This could work. GGG is looking more lean and quick than he was before.
A lot of people always speculated GGG was the one carrying Sanchez, in my experience, someone explicitly used gassievs inability to adapt against usyk as Sanchezs inability to give useful advice as an example and I wouldnt disagree.
Itll be neat to see if he improves or doesnt.

*"The faster you move during an exercise the less efficiently you load the target muscles (force-velocity curve, momentum, offloading onto other muscle groups, etc.).
Take your time and focus on keeping the targeted muscles under tension over the full range of the exercise.
HOW you perform each repetition is far more important than how MANY you do or how MUCH you lift.
Focus more on how WELL you perform exercises, and less on trying to impress other people at the gym or on social media with how many reps you can do or how much you can lift badly."

I hope he loses really
even tho I dont really like the guy, he did stankchez real dirty. Shame on lilg
Sanchez acted like an ass hole after the split. I don't feel sorry for him at all. Sanchez works for Golovkin. He had two huge paydays for the Canelo fights and numerous very good paydays with Golovkin. He's not hurting financially.He admitted that he did well in the construction business and is OK. Golovkin has never said a bad word about Sanchez even after Sanchez called him some really nasty names.
no
he did sanchez dirty (no pun)
you can keep imagining things all you want... and I always said that his team is doing him wrong (management) but he keeps them and drops sanchez... imo that was stupid
Well he did drop his management, unless you mean he should drop Loeffler.
His best days are behind him. He'd struggle to beat Rob Brant at this point. I'd probably even pick Brant in that fight at this point.
Of course you would Julia that's why it's a safe bet to pick GGG Esp. If you pick against him.
