Comments Thread For: Mayweather: Canelo Beats Golovkin Easy - He Stops Him!

[b Murphington]

This guy really roots for his past opponents. The utter disappointment on his face when Guerrero didn't beat DSG down will be much worse if these two get in the ring. GGG stops Canelo. No way Canelo beats him. I'd put money on it.

Don't be so sure of it. Canelo's actually been in tough close fights and has won. He won't fold under pressure if the going gets tough.

He's faced the tougher competition by far. GGG is a hard puncher, yes, but Canelo is a hard puncher as well and I think he can match GGG punch for punch.

GGG has been tearing through guys so much these days, that I think he's gonan be shook when he finds out he won't have the upper edge he's had in all of his other fights.

Canelo won't be shook, cuz he's been there before. He's faced those types of situations in the past.

He also was there with GGG so he know whats up,hontestly cant wait for this fight it will be hell of a fight,very brutal.

I gotta say, I think Canelo fights better going backwards than going forward, why did I get to that conclusion? see the Trout fight, when he was going after Trout he had a harder time that when Trout had to go forward because the open scoring.

Same with Lara or Floyd, fighters who come to Canelo are the ones who make him fight the best. Canelo KO's Lemieux ala Kirkland, JMHO.

I got the fight right now as a 60-40 in favor of GGG but I do think that Canelo will be a stronger and better fighter @160 and when the fight happens, SEP 2016 I wouldn't be schoked if Canelo beats GGG.

Canelo will be at his full prime at a weight I think will suit him better.

yea he is a counter-puncher, and he should be able to fight off the back foot, he has been well-schooled. Also, Canelo is a lot quicker than Golovkin and his combinations are very effective, Golovkin won't be able to open himself up like he does against most of the other guys he fought.

Canelo has a lot of good experience. I'm not dis*****g that. Has he been in with guys that can punch? Sure he has. However, those guys who could punch didn't have GGG's skills either. Against Stevens and Lemieux, he got punched very little and delivered his own blows with accuracy.

For me, I don't see Canelo holding up to GGG's punches down the stretch. He's just that powerful. If it weren't for the power, I would still say GGG wins because of his movement. He's not just a big punch. He knows how to position himself very well. Canelo is a big counterpuncher and he's excellent at it. However, I don't see GGG falling for the traps he sets. If this damn fight ever happens, it's going to be interesting. I'd love to see it. Believe me.

At this point, though, for me, it's looking like a very big IF. And obviously, Floyd wants everyone he beat to beat everybody else for legacy's sake. So he's pretty biased in this situation. I don't blame him, but he's off-base here.

Hopefully we get this fight in 2017. It's going to be big if it happens

I think he will fall in traps,for one major reason,GGG use jab to set everything,and Canelo loves to counter jabs ,IMO if Canelo will keep fight in center of the ring he can score UD,Golovkin have power but it wont be factor in this fight,Canelo is not so bad on ropes us people think he can counter from ropes too,Big thing for Canelo is that GGG dont trade its big in this fight and people sleep on it,I cant choose winner but it will be brutal as ****,one thing people overrate in ggg is stamina i think he have some stamina isseuse ,GGG best weapone in this fight are his legs.

3 main factors
1.How good will Canelo be in countering GGGs jab
2how will Golovkin use his feets
3,Will GGG trade or he will let GGG put combos .

Golovkin easily beats Canelo, Floyd is Jealous and Envious over GGG popularity, nothing more. Mayweather fans are delusional idiots, almost comical clowns it's enough to make you break a rib from laughing so hard !!!

Yes, I think anyone who's saying this is going to be an easy fight for either guy is full of it. Very interesting match up and a dream fight, fight of the year type of fight.

You're right though. GGG might have the upper hand in the positioning/footwork department.

[Mike Rotch]

If GGG was so crap why didnt you fight him but you fought canelo?

Why would Floyd fight a crap fighter? That's a werid thing for you to say.

[Mike Rotch]

"Canelo beats Golovkin easy!"

"I advise Canelo not to fight Golovkin anytime soon. He made the right decision dropping the belt".

This guy is a walking contradiction

He meant it was the right decision, in terms of business. Let the fight marinate. I guess that went over your head?
