Comments Thread For: Hernandez: Golovkin Knocks Canelo Out in Three

[Joe Beamish]

I agree, I think Canelo is better than he's shown, but lets also remember that against Lara and Mayweather, the only times he looked lost and not himself was against boxers with above average foot work. GGG is not a boxer, he's a come forward puncher and nothing else. If canelo can come forward and somehow get GGG to respect the power Canelo brings it could be very close. Ive yet to see GGG fight of his back foot, for al we know that could cause problems if Canelo can keep him back. I have this fight ending late maybe 8-9 by KO, or possible a decision. I favor GGG in this fight only because he's a natural 160 pounder, but I wouldn't be surprised if canelo imposes his size and turns the fight around.

GGG is more than a "come forward puncher and nothing else." He can box with great economy of movement.

Canelo fought Floyd with kid gloves, scared to take a chance, looking like he was satisfied to receive an inevitable UD loss. That made me hate him forever. Against GGG he would get killed.

Lmfao. If you believe this, you're a ****ing IDIOT. There's no way around that.

Rosado went 8 rounds, Stevens went 10 rounds. Yet, Canelo is getting knocked out in 3. Keep dreaming ladies.

They both get better n better n love to mix it up. They're styles would match up perfectly. Both strong aggressive boxer punchers. Both get hit just enuff to make it interesting. Both hungry. the list goes on and on make it happen sweet

Canelo has faster hands and will counter the shit out of Golovkin

[-Kev-]

so you think Canelo beats GGG?

I said i'm not 100% about it. With the eye test though, Cannel has shown more to his game. Once he stepped up in competition he stopped getting KO's but that comes with the territory, a territory GGG hasn't been to yet. GGG has some really good physical advantages on Canelo: used to MW and making that weight looking strong (we don't know if Canelo will make 160 looking ripped, he can come in looking a bit fat in his first few fights), height, reach.

Geale, macklin, Rubio all got it. Canelo is better 5han all them. That being said, power is there. It could be 3rd rd ko or Canelo could give him a great fight. Let's see it!

Stevens lasted 8 rounds but yeah I can't imagine Murray not lasting at least as long as Adama and Stevens. And Canelo is better than these guys, he'll go the distance and give it his all to win with smart fighting and brutal combos to GGG's defenseless head.

I also whole-heartedly feel Canelo has what it takes to beat GGG. Fight fire with fire. Does that mean he win for sure? No. But he had as good a chance as any.

I didn't see him stop Rosado, Adama or Stevens in 3 rounds. This Hernandez guy is saying Canelo is not in the same level as GGG but he disrespects him by sticking him together with Rubio, Ishida, Macklin, Geale. Canelo's has better skills than GGG, that's how he'd win. But GGG may be too big, that's the only thing that stops me from going with Canelo 100%.

What better skill does he have?
Jab:GGG
Power:GGG
Size:GGG
Ring generalship:GGG
Pure boxing ability:GGG
Amateur background:GGG
You're delusional...

[Nay_Sayer]

canelo's lack of footspeed will be his downfall against GGG.

Golovkin is slower than Alvarez.
