All the big talk he was giving after the Plant fight "if I fought Golovkin now I'd destroy him" etc.. All the talks about GGG not being able to take body shots and looking bad in the Murata fight etc... I'm not hating its facts - Canelo strategically waited out Golovkin for 4 years to get him to a point where his reactions and punch resistance decreased so it was no longer an elite vs elite situation but an elite vs aged fighter one... and what happened? Canelo stunk the joint out.
In fact, as well as Canelo getting out fought down the stretch by a near 41 year man, he actually finished the fight with more facial damage than Golovkin who only had a slight reddening of the forehead while Canelo had a mouse under his eye and a bleeding nose (as well as a cut eye from an accidental headbutt)
