I think we can all agree canelo isnt the guy to beat GGG

[dan_cov]

I don't feel he is the one either but I do think its a more competitive fight than I initially thought.

[Furn]

I just don't see how Canelo can keep him off.

Unless he can hurt GGG he's getting stopped.

[Reloaded]

If I were Canelo I would not fight him unless it was close to 155 , its his only chance of winning GGG is too strong everywhere , Canelo can make the lower weight GGG cant , its a BS way but its the only way I can give him a shot at winning .

[CatchAndShoot]

Am I the only one that can honestly see Canelo knocking out GGG? If he fought woth disregard for Canelo's power like he did against Brook, I can easily see him getting rocked and taken out.

But obviously they'd be more careful, but you never know. GGG might want to make a statement in a big way, and pay for it. If he fights measured and treats Canelo as if he can really punch, then GGG should have it in the bag, but if he lets the Boogeyman thing get to his head, he might get stopped.

Canelo can really really punch, don't forget that. So can GGG, but GGG's the one that fights in a style that is more exploitable relative to their fight.

Who has GGG beat? What A level opposition has he faced to even compare him to Canelo? One moron was like but GGG has a better plus minus record... well I guess so when Canelo is fighting the Floyd Mayweathers, Erislandy Laras, Miguel Cottos, etc... and GGG is fighting the Dominic Wades, Willie Monroes, and David Lemieuxs . I mean seriously guys . You fall into the HBO hype way too much. The same people swore up and down that Floyd had no chance against #48 and what happened there? Always falling in love with power and the HBO hype train. You'll label a fighter a cherry picker while wearing blinders on your favorite hype jobs carefully matched cherry picked fights.

Until GGG fights someone of substance he's not invincible and CAN be beat. We won't know until they fight if it happens. GGG and his team will probably price themselves out or not make concessions to make the fight happen. I would've dropped the WBC belt too instead of paying a ridiculous purse bid to a chump that drew 97k ppv buys too if I was Canelo... it was the smart thing to do. You don't pay somebody something that they aren't worth. Canelo is the A side and GGG draws no comparison, especially fighting mostly cans. Hopkins made concessions including weight to fight De La Hoya. Hell even Floyd made concessions to fight De La Hoya. GGG is not a star or a p4p fighter of the caliber that they were so he should make concessions to get the big fights that he says he wants. He's only been a hypocrite and businessman like he claims others are so far. Dey be duckin' him doe.

Some of you think Brook is better than Canelo lol... well if Brook is supposedly better, why would you want to see him fight GGG then? Don't you want GGG tested? I see the fight as 50/50 and will be rooting for Canelo to end the hype train. I'm no Canelo fan either.

[Madison Boxing]

At Golovkin fans having to break it down to single punches to say Golovkin is better. When i said better in every department i meant he's better offensively, defensively has better speed etc.

deluded beyond belief.

1.canelo doesnt fight well going backwards

2. Canelos power is overated as seen tonight and in the cotto fight

3. Canelo is easily touched and has leaky defense.

4. Canelo doesnt jab enough and doesnt defend the jab well.

5. Smith showed canelo isnt on GGG level


I think its safe to say canelo wont even be competitive with GGGl

leaky defense HAHhHhHHahahahha GGG has horrible defense. his C level opponents like monroe hit him easily and brook countered him easily as well but GGG lies and claims he lets them do it and his nut huggers believe him.

canelo will expose this fraud.

well said, green given.

[Daddy T]

I actually feel canelo would give GGG a great fight. I don't see him winning but he has a shot. He has quick hands and decent power. I think GGG would probably have too much for him though and it seems Oscar agrees.

[SplitSecond]

Liam Smith is really featherfisted. All I wanted to say.
