Comments Thread For: Monroe Confident: Canelo Will Beat Gennady Golovkin

[gmc_rfc_06]

Canelo can very much win that fight when it happens.

[Beercules]

Of course

I also think Canelo CAN win . Now WILL he win depends on when they end up fighting IMO.

Lol when?

Monroe has a point.

Nobody ever schooled Ginger fighting in the Pocket.

Nelo got beat by Floyd from the outside, almost beat by Lara, again from the outside.

In a FIGHT, toe to toe, Canelo has tremendous skills.

GGG is the perfect style for Nelo, GGG'll be coming at Nelo, so Nelo will easely find his distance, GGG is obviously a mid range fighter who likes to cut off the ring.

Where I disagree with Monroe is he's not taking in count the size and power.

GGG is 5"10 1/2, Ginger 5"9, they have the same reach recorded but dunno about that.

When they faced each others in that ring, I was like damn, GGG is bigger.

What would worry me about Nelo is, while he was able to outbox a smaller ma, like Cotto, he never really hurt him.

You would expect a bit more of power in order to beat GGG in a fight.

Ouma showed what Golovkin can do if he stands in the pocket. Golovkin is so much more effective from the outside that they think he's very beatable on the inside. But if you stand on the inside and trade with Golovkin, he's going to be landing damaging shots. Canelo can beat him to the punch, but Golovkin won't stop firing just because Canelo lands first, in fact Canelo might be more vulnerable without his defense set.

Monroe is a classless jealous sore loser. He got blasted out. What does he know? NOTHING. How to land on his ass.

Actually Monroe did the complete opposite of what was expected. Usually when a fighter gets his ass kicked he sides with that fighter in any fantasy fight for life. A fighter benefits from the fighter they lost to continuing on a mean streak of wins. So it's actually ironic that Monroe says anyone at all can beat GGG. There's absolutely no benefit from him saying Canelo wins.

There's more benefit for him if GGG goes on to beat Canelo, Jacobs, Saunders, Jack, DeGale, etc. There is such an element in boxing where a loss can become less and less of an impact on your resume, the more that fighter who beat you keeps beating top names. If GGG beats Canelo, Monroe's loss to GGG won't look as bad. If Canelo beats GGG, that would really be GGG's first elite fighter and he loses, then Monroe's loss looks worse

If you think Canelo is actually 5/9 you need to stop watching boxing.

Khan is listed as 5'8 and he is CLEARLY taller than Canelito.

Mayweather is listed as 5'8 and he is clearly taller as well.

Take it easy boy, maybe I was wrong for one inch?

How much do you think Canelo is?

Clealry taller for Kahn agreed, but Kahn is listed 5'8 1/2.

Floyd and Alvarez were about the same size, I would say Nelo is 5'8 maybe 5'7 1/2 but not less.

Just when you thought you saw the worst fanbase..here comes the Golovitards.

Says a pathetic alt. How many is this for you?

[ultravividscene]

"i said Canelo would beat him - i just know boxing"

Statements like that are best left until after the act Willie. An opinion isn't fact until proven so.

You also said you would beat Golovkin, which doesn't say much for your predictions or indeed your self-professed 'knowledge' of boxing...

[bambam182]

if canelo beats GGG then the GGG fans will say "canelo waited for GGG to get old"

they wont give him credit even if its at 160
