Canelo is not an inside fighter

First of all. Thanks for agreeing with me.
2nd. Just because he goes back on the the ropes against certain D level opposition sporadically dosen't make him an inside fighter.Last edited by satiev1; 05-07-2017, 10:43 PM.Comment

Canelo is a versatile fighter. He can fight inside, at midrange, on the ropes. He will do what he has to do to come out victorious. That's what makes him so dangerousComment

Seriously. GGG isn't an inside fighter whatsoever. He's a midrange fighter that like to back you up to the ropes and work on you. There is a reason HE BEAT THE DOG PISS out of Willie Monroe when he boxed but it became a bit more competitive when Willie decided to stand in front of him and fight.Comment

lol, on what planet is Golovkin an in-fighter?This fight literally comes down to can Canelo take GGG's power shots, and if he can, he has a legit chance of winning, and does he have the dog in him to keep fighting even if he's hurt, or getting tagged with GGG shots. Also, how does he handle body shots from one of the hardest and most accurate punchers he'll have ever faced?
I actually think he's a durable guy, and has a real chance of winning, but like you said, TS, he's not a real in fighter, so GGG might drown him on the inside.Comment

He is a mid range boxer and one of the best at it. He throws fast accurate hard punches to the head and body. He can lead or counter and he is razor sharp at both. He puts together combinations with every punch a hard punch. He improves with every fight.Comment

Yeah, GGG has very good boxing skills for sure, and so does Canelo. The reason why I think he has a great chance is because they both fight at almost the same range, and GGG is very hittable, as we've seen in his last 2 fights. And Canelo is quicker than Brook, and Jacobs, 2 guys that put up great fights with GGG, and also throws in combinations when he's countering you. He has the hand speed to land a quick 2-3 punches on GGG before he can reset, before he lands, or even after he lands.
I think Canelo gives him problems without a doubt, but I also completely understand why GGG would be the favorite in this fight also. I even slightly favor GGG in this fight, but I'm still giving Canelo a Greta chance to win the fight. I think GGG's body punching, jab, ring cutting ability, and size will play a huge factor in this fight, but for sure won't be sleeping on Canelo.
He lands some great body punches on the inside, and is great at getting in close range with his ring cutting. I mean, how can you land great combination body shots if you're not on the inside. Don't get me wrong, I understand he does great work at mid range with his jab, and power shots, but when he does get on the inside he does great work.Comment
