How Alvarez Neutralizes gennady's Jab

[ThatDude44]

I don't think Canelo ever gets past the jab to set up body shots. GGG has far too many weapons and has shown them against top level comp. Canelo needs to prove he's special and he can do so by beating GGG.

But I'm glad some of the guys on here are believing in Canelo. I don't want to see any excuses if he loses.

I believe.

The kid is skilled, he's not only a boxer-puncher. Any real fan with a discerning eye can see that. That said, I hope the post-fight big talk about fighting Golovkin wasn't just adrenalin-fueled.

it's most likely adrenaline fueled. that punk again said he was ready to step in with ggg NEXT hahahahahahahaha. why wasn't he ready last time he said it????? obviously he was talking out of his butt. canelo fraud.

[Divine Hammer]

When near the ropes he should surprise gennady by moving forward into the inside.

Then he can bust gennady up with bodyshots to decrease his punching power

that would be the biggest dunce move hahahahahahahahahahahaha. ggg would answer back with his own body punches which have been know to debilitate middleweights. even ggg's heavyweight sparring partners have to wear body protection because he hits so hard to the body. hahahahahahahahaha

If GGG's skills are so suspect how comes that Canelo ducked him so far instead of fighting him last Saturday?

gennady is one of the least respected fighters because of how he wants to manipulate weight classes.

I'll fight this guy at 154. But I won't fight another at 155.

It was about skills, right? And you shifted it to "weight classes"...
And you know the answer: FMJr was champ at 154, while Canelo is champ at 160.
In which way GGG "wants to manipulate weight classes"? Because I can't see.

(You will probably shift it again... Ward at 164...)

I don't think this fight will be competitive.

Canelo is sharper than Golovkin in the pocket, but I don't think he'll be aggressive in this fight so he's not gonna get close to Golovkin and he obviously can't win at range.

To get inside Golovkin you would have to take a lot of punishment and Canelo is too defensively responsible to do that, he's not a 'take one to give one' kinda fighter.

It's a very easy fight to call.

Good thing for Alvarez gennady is the type to come right to him.

Alvarez gets inside by defending then smothering. If Willie Monroe could do it, Alvarez can.

Or he counters gennady as the latter is coming forward then gets inside.

For an elite pressure fighter gennady doesn't do much at close quarters. He always wants some space before punching.

If you actually watched boxing, you'd know gennady is average on the inside.

He doesn't look very good when there isn't space for him to generate power.

You asked why gennady didn't fight Alvarez and couldn't handle the answer.

Either you're in denial or too slow to remember your own questions.

You got bigger problems than seeing.

Monroe got inside because GGG allowed it. Golovkin beat the crap out of him on the inside. If Monroe was the one controlling the fight on the inside, why did he stop?

i know ggg would cripple canelo to the body not the other way around. maybe ur the one who doesnt see enough. ur too blinded with ur love of that red head freak.

[DreamerUSA]

how do you envision him doing it?

I think he'll start by jabbing with him to disrupt gennady's stick.

Once the timing is down Alvarez counters it with his new fav punch the right hand to the body.

The jab will be nonexistent when they're fighting inside. I don't like how gennady took them bodyshots Willie Monroe inside.


gennady is far from a flawless fighter and has only faced opponents he eclipses in ability.

imo the quality of his performances will plummet when he finally steps up in levels.

I don't envision him doing it. Canelos only hope is to get inside and make it a dirty grind, but he has to get there. He is not only going to have to slip the jab but he will also have to avoid GGG's nasty uppercuts that he can throw with either hand. GGG also does fantastic body work and much like his ability to work around high guards when punching to the head, he does that as well to the body. He has an absolutely brutal left hook to the body. If by some small miracle Canelo is able to avoid GGG's heavy artillary, he will have to be able to keep GGG smothered for 12 rounds. Which Canelo has never demonstrated the stamina to do so. If he tries to take breathers, GGG will be on his ass ****ing him up.

As for Canelo hurting GGG. Not going to happen. Outside of Kirkland and Khan, who has Canelo really stopped? He could'nt get an undersized Mosley or Cotto out of there. And he is facing a guy that has never been on the canvas or even hurt that I've seen in over 400 amatuer and professional fights.
