Do you think Golovkin can outbox Canelo?

[Earl-Hickey]

Yes.

Canelo might actually possess better skill at mid range but the instant he tastes golovkins power he will go on the defensive and he's **** defensively.

[Eastcoast]

Canelo's toughness will only insure he takes a worse beating than most other Golovkin opponents. Canelo gets Ouma'd.

Ggg can try jabbing and moving around but his trainer would prob get mad. ggg will be aggressive canelo will hurt him with body shots and get ko 8th round.

So canelo wasn't able to drop Mosley,Lara,cotto,or hatton with body shots, or ko any of them,and now he's going to magically become this ko artist? You're really reaching.

where is this notion that canelo is a better boxer than a guy with over 300 amateur fights and a silver medal at the olympics is coming from? is like people are trying to fool themselves to believe that GGG is nothing more than a big puncher

in addition, when has Canelo become a power puncher that he'll hurt GGG with any clean punch he'll land?

[mathed]

We all know he can knock him out, but can he outbox him?

He does have a good jab, good footwork, and the higher work rate. However Canelo has longer reach, faster hands, and is a great counter puncher.

His jab is a lethal weapon, a severely underrated one at that. His pressure and jab will have Candelita fighting off of the back foot for most of the fight. He will be tentative to start the fight and then when GGG lands the left either to the head or liver, the diva will be on his bike trying to potshot.

GGG will be stalking, throwing more shots, and slowly breaking the diva down. After 3 rounds of not letting his hands go, he will try to push his luck and GGG will hurt him, probably to the body. He'll retreat again and GGG will continue to control him with the jab.

GGG hurts him again in the 5th and follows up with combinations until Candelita is dropped to the canvas. He makes it to the 6th but GGG attacks him, putting him down again, this time for good.

That's exactly what canelo is expecting, canelo just needs one good counter to hurt ggg. Ggg being aggressive plays into canelos fighting style.

What? Based on what exactly? By the fact that golovkin has never even been staggered before or by the fact that Canelo couldn't even dent cotto? There's a reason Canelo has always fought smaller guys. His power is really nothing special and his handlers know this.

[El-blanco]

Didnt see anything that tells me he can outbox him neither of them are skilled boxers but both are good counter puncher

If GGG game plan is to make Canelo the aggressor than I could see him having some success but I doubt that's the fight will see

arguably the best offensive fighter in boxing with the most varied punch output isn't a skilled boxer?

[Lester Tutor]

I'm telling you guys, Alvarez too quick for Lil'G.

Do you guys really think Lil'G's stiff jab will land?!! Jab jab than Lil'G's right to the body or over the top?! Alvarez is going to expose Lil'G! Home fries is going to gass out.

Youth over hype any day.

[KillaMane26]

Yall forgetting GGG is a better boxer than he looks....
