They have compared Jermell to ATG's? Serious?

Have you ever watched a Canelo or Charlo fight?..... You think Charlo is going to beat Canelo by counter punching while Canelo starts pressuring him?.....lol.

I don't think you know how to read. I said the total opposite.

You don't think I know how to read. I think you meant to say I struggle with comprehension. Why would you reply to a man who can't read with more words?.......lol.

But I re-read you post and notice I did misread what you said. And I agree with it, except the part that Canelo will pressure Charlo. That's not Canelo's style. He'll use faints and jabs to see how his opponent reacts to certain actions in the ring before he opens up his attack. Sometimes this gives a round or two to a lesser opponent. Refer to his fight vs Amir Khan.

You are saying he doesn't put pressure and goes forward? What I've see recnently is him moving forward with a tight defence and then counter his oppents when they start throwing punches.

LOL....now you are the one showing comprehension issues. I didn't say he "doesn't" put pressure or goes forward. I said he doesn't jump to that tactic out the gate. He's a methodical fighter, similar to Crawford. You can see this by looking at his punch stats throughout his career. He uses faints, angles, and jab placement to see how his opponents will react to certain attacks. At times he's given early rounds to opponents who don't have the skill set to hurt him via pure power ala Amir Khan who arguably won the first 3/4 rounds of their 6 round bout, according to many critics.

Canelo doesn't display that "Mexican Style" fighting until he's gotten to a position in the fight where's he feels he is physically head and shoulders better than his opponent and/or the opponents length is keeping him from getting to the spots he would like to get to early and often. This was one of the things that GGG called him on in their first fight in which we saw GGG push Canelo back with his pressure. GGG chanted at him in the late rounds to bring the fight to the center of the ring.

I understand what Jermell is saying, but I don't like that mentality going into this fight vs Canelo. It's almost as if he's projecting that he'll lose this fight. You can't win if you think you'll lose. Maybe he's playing mind games...
