Comments Thread For: Golovkin Opens as 4-1 Favorite To Beat Canelo

[LouIE G]

You're so cool LOLOL.

[LoadedWraps]

The perception is he's the better fighter, but we really dont know yet. If Canelo wins what then? It will be the same thing that happened before Garcia beat Mathysse... people tried to convince me lucas was the boogeyman, but who won? I've been a member since 2009, I think I know a little bit about bxing GGG is just a sensitive subject for a lot of people, for some reason.

How is Canelo going to win? Explain that to me.

I just want to know what Canelo is going to do deep in the 6th round after being dropped several times, barely breathing because the pain of his cracked ribs has him on the verge of quitting, bleeding from both eyes, broken jaw, gassed, and taking savage sledgehammers from the p4p king GGG the one and only boxing Corleone.

I understand Canelito fans don't want him to fight GGG, knowing he will never be the same as a fighter, as a man. He might even die that night. GGG would punish him like Christopher Rios. Ether him like Nasir Jones.

You'll just have to wait and see like everyone else.

He will outbox Golovkin..... Canelo will keep him honest with skill/technique and take a small step back whenever Golovkin sets his feet, but stay balanced and look to punish him with hard counters.

The first point of business will be taking away Golovkin's jab.

If Golovkin can't put Canelo away, I think that Canelo wins a decision.

I don't see how GGG would get outboxed by Canelo. GGG has a more educated jab, doesn't tire, and will stay in range because he comes forward, and he knows how to cut off the ring. Canelo would have to really outwork GGG every time there is an exchange and I see GGG getting the better of Canelo as the fight goes on.

I could see Canelo landing a few counters early, but I think GGG won't have a problem adjusting to his style and pace and will dispatch him in the mid rounds at latest.

I can see it happening.

GGG has a more educated jab

I don't believe that at all. He has a more imposing jab, if/when he decides to use it, against far inferior opponents..... but Canelo is not David Lemieux..... and other than that, we simply don't know.

Canelo has a faster more-educated jab, and better timing. I think Canelo is a better boxer overall than Golovkin, and he is quicker with better movement/defence and also a much better counter-puncher.

He has shown more than Golovkin has, against much better opponents, so I can definitely see him creating some problems for Golovkin, who does seem a little one-dimensional at times.

doesn't tire

How do you know that ?

If he can't put Canelo away, and Canelo is out-boxing him and landing nice counters past the mid-rounds..... I can see Golovkin getting frustrated/tired, especially toward the championship rounds if the fight looks like it's going the distance and he is behind on the cards.

Golovkin is used to guys falling over in front of him and not offering much in return, we have no idea how he will react when the going gets tough.

We don't know how that will play out at all. Canelo could time him and take his jab away with a slip/counter. He adjusted to Khan's speed no problem.

I'm not sure if there will be all these big exchanges that Canelo will have to win. I see Canelo getting the better of Golovkin as the fight goes on.

I could see Canelo landing a few counters early, but I think GGG won't have a problem adjusting to his style and pace and will dispatch him in the mid rounds at latest.

Personally I think that Team Golovkin will walk rather than negotiate with Canelo at 155, so it's likely a moot point..... Loeffler has indicated that they have other plans on more than 1 occasion, this morning being the latest.

Which is fkn bizarre to me, it appears they don't want that fight.

I have heard of boxers dumping titles before..... but I aint heard of too many fighters who walk away from a huge payday.

But if that fight did happen, I just think that Canelo seems to be the better boxer, much better at some things, and he seems like the guy who will make the better adjustments..... we pretty much see one style from Golovkin, and that's it.

I think Reynoso and his team will come up with a nice gameplan to frustrate Golovkin and counter his style. They know that Golovkin needs to set to be effective.

Canelo is way better than the cans Golovkin is blowing through, I think that is why it looks like they will turn down the Canelo fight at 155 and walk.

At 160 I favor Golovkin, but not at 155.

For crying out loud, Lemuiexs power on Canelos, and thars for real.

Lemuiexs speed of foot on Canelos too.

Canelo wont trouble Ggg as much as you think. Canelo was out boxed by Khan, FACT.

Ggg will hunt him down and there will be a stoppage. Oscar knows it, they all know it.


If Canelo was so confident, why vacate!

Keep the belt, fight, get it done.

If he gets demolished by Ggg where can he go? His career is in jeopardy. This is a chess move.

U do know that Ggg dropped kovlev in sparring.

Kov hated sparring with him. Youtube it bro

All that is going to go to shyt. Why?

Canelo is going to fighting on the back foot.

Unless you think hes staying toe to toe or pushing Ggg back?
