if canelo cant hurt people then i expect ggg to fight mexican style or street fight like he did to brooks, but instead we are going to get the kazakhstan style like we did in the lemule and jacobs fights...

Watch how Cotto fought Manny, Sergio and many others then see how he fought Canelo. Cotto was in seek and destroy mode very aggressive coming forward trying to take their heads off. Against Manny that's how he got dropped because he wanted to prove he was the bigger/stronger man and that aggressive style leaves you open. Against Canelo he did the opposite very cautious backing up fighting from the distance setting a career high with almost 400 jabs thrown. He wanted to fight those other guys and that's the style we are used to seeing from cotto. He wanted NO PARTS of fighting Canelo he wanted to win a tactical boxing match off his back foot jabbing. Canelo adjusted took his jab away and easily outboxed Cotto. Had Cotto come to make it war he get's put to sleep. The few rounds and moments he got off his bike and stood his ground he was getting busted up that's just a fact.
The people who keep saying Cotto didn't get knocked out so Canelo don't have power. Cotto respected Canelo's power so much he fought a tactical fight to avoid trading with him. He didn't respect Manny's power so ran in leaving himself open to shots. Didn't respect Sergio power so stalked him down. Never dared try any of this against Canelo and for good reason. Lara didn't get knocked out either but that's only because he ran from Canelo. If the man don't have pop why are guys running, getting on their bike and becoming gun shy to throw they hands against Canelo? You don't do that if a fighter can't hurt you.Comment

Exactly you will see GGG fighting cautious I promise that. If not he will get lit the phuk up coming in by counters and combos. And Canelo hits much harder then Brook but has quicker hands and better defense. Canelo too intelligent will set traps and time GGG. Don't think people get Canelo is counterpuncher HE WANTS HIS OPPONENTS TO COME FORWARD AND LET THEIR HANDS GO. He doesn't want to chase you he had to do that against Chavez because he got gun shy, he had to do that against Cotto because he fought off his back foot timid to get in exchanges. He can outbox if you want to do that but he much rather you come to him and he busts you up with counters you don't see coming.Last edited by bigdunny1; 05-11-2017, 08:50 AM.Comment

Simple, by domination of the top 10 ranked opponents in his division. Same as Chocolatito and Kovalev. Someone like Wilder for example isn't there because he's fought one top 10 opponent his entire career. Btw, Canelo's resume is not much better than GGG's but he's p4p. His best wins were a controversial decision to Lara and going life and death with a past his prime Cotto who Austin no doubt Trout took out handily. Doesn't say much does it....Comment

I saw GGG backing down Jacobs things whole fight and no he didn't go life and death with him. GGG had no knockdown or even blemishes after the fight, unlike Jacobs. I had GGG 115 - 112 and had Canelo barely winning by a round and that was with huge size advantage against Cotto. While GGG had a huge size disadvantage and with Jacobs p4p being a much tougher fight than Cotto. Don't h8Comment
