He doesn’t look as hard to beat as he once did. He doesn’t seem to box in the same way. Loads up, is less accurate and seems that his reflexes might not be quite what they were.
Thoughts?
What’s your first clue? His age? 32 is far past a man’s prime Especially a athlete.
This poster just said the point that i was trying to make to IceTray. If GGG and Canelo aren't "that good" then no one is good, since these two guys would demolish anyone in 168 160.
Same thing happened to AJ, even thought I dislike the man, for some here to suggest he can't beat a Daniel Dubois now is just ridicilous, AJ still wipes out most of the HW division outside of Fury Usyk and maybe Wilder (maybe.)
He looked the way he should look against an opponent that knows him very well. Canelo's game is good head movement, shifting, setting up combos, and brutal power. GGG is just a tough match-up for Canelo. That said, of course he's going to decline in the coming years. He's been fighting a long time and he's 32.
I don't think so tbh and if he has declined, its only by a little bit. Too many people were on the hype train after Canelo beat all these guys at 168(and Kovalev) thinking that Canelo was peaking when he was fighting guys who were just a level below. I mean even this old GGG would have good chance of beating Plant and BJS.
