Abel Sanchez: It's Going to be Easier to prepare for Canelo than it was for Jacobs

[The Time]

I have to say I agree with Sanchez. Canelo did not have the height and reach Jacobs has and Golovkin now ha the experience against top tier elite fighters in Jacobs. Going the full round even that is a great experience.

Great points actually. Good observations.

Sanchez is right but it sounds like a gamesmanship. Canelo makes the same moves in most of his fights. Jacobs is more unpredictable. I don't think they fully prepared for Jacobs and it showed in the fight. Jacobs also came up with a game plan that I can't say I saw him use before.

They were fully prepared .. but not for what Jacobs brought!

They obviously knew he would switch stance and move, but I don't think Abel bargained on Danny doing that so well for the whole 12 rounds. They thought he would make mistakes, or start coming forward, and get tagged and KO'd.

In the end, it was GGG's very underrated jab and technical skills that won the fight for him, rather than any mistakes by Danny.

They were hoping that Jacobs approach his fight like in the quillen fight and panic like in the pirog first fight. But Jacobs was much more mature in his approach and it was ggg alone figured out how to beat the boxing Jacobs when Sanchezs monthly prepared gameplan is useless.

To be fair, having a plan B is part of the preparation.

I thought Jacobs won the fight but that's a whole other discussion.

Damn, Cool Story.

Actually a documentary on both boxers families would be great. I know Triple G had an older brother that got killed in war and they were never given their brothers body, I don't think they even told them how he died. It affected the family deeply. Triple G says he still holds that anger inside about his older brothers death. And it was interesting how he and his fraternal twin brother Max decided who would box professionally and who who stay behind to take care of the family.

A documentary on both Golovkin and Canelo and their families would be great for their upcoming fight.

actually he lost BOTH his older brothers in war.

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

pssh they smoking crack, GGG does boxing moves and it works cause he has power etc, but canelo adapts and works off what is given. GGG just march forwards cuts off teh ring and if your moving right he gonna xyz and if your moving left hes gonna throw zyx no matter what, canelo if your moving right he gonna look for the shots he can land best and same when your moving left.

Oh there were two brothers? I thought it was one. Thanks for updating on that.

Yeah man, they both have stories that are made for documentary TV.

It would be cool to see that.
