Comments Thread For: Canelo: Golovkin One-Dimensional; I Thought He Lost to Jacobs

[Mirus]

After reading your coment I started to wonder what fast boxer has he faced?

Most of GGG's opponents were faster than him. For example Jacobs and Brook were faster than GGG.

[Mirus]

He's never really faced a good fast boxer.

And Canelo is not a really good fast boxer.

I thought Jacobs won that fight

But whatever, The powers that be weren't going to derail Gennady/Canelo unless it was a clear victory for Jacobs

Like Canelo has any room to say sh.it he lost to Lara and would get embarrassed by Jacobs. Oscar knows this that's why the last 2 years his resume consists of Khan, Smith & Chavez

And in Sept Canelo is going to get executed by Gennady.

GGG is one of the few boxers that is complete. Has a great body attack, great combos, great timing, great footwork, pwoer, great jab, can cut the ring off. Complete.

[IMDAZED]

And Canelo is not a really good fast boxer.

I guess there's no way GGG loses to him then

[alexguiness]

If Jacobs beat GGG, then Lara beat Canelo...

Canelo's hand speed, accuracy, and defense will have GGG freezing and forced to reset all night long. He will look like a deer in headlights and will be outboxed.


It could very well be a tossup, but then, who has more power... Canelo or Brook? Because Brook definitely had GGG freezing for a couple rounds there. I expect Canelo to do the same basic thing, along with some other bits that will confuse GGG. It will be a tough fought UD for Canelo IMO.

You gotta remember though the GGG that fought Brook was not the same GGG that fought Danny. He was walking in with his hands down in the Brook fight and not using his jab. He didnt respect Brooks power and was soley trying to catch him and get him outta there & in the process Brook landed his best shots. It was very similar to how he fought against Willie Monore.

With Danny GGG kept his hands up and kept his jab pumping all night because he respected Jacobs power, He fought similar in the Lemieux fight. Expect him to do the same with Canelo, he won't just walk in face first

I don't expect it to be a wipeout, but you can't tell me GGG just walked in hands down, especially after getting tagged repeatedly from Brook. He just couldn't do anything about it, til he finally landed a bomb. He only had his hands down here and there... it certainly wasn't a constant thing. Not saying he lost, obviously he didn't. But he did lose the first couple rounds and it was because of Brook's speed, angles, uppercuts that GGG had rarely ever been tagged with before. Then Danny took it all a step further. There are some great training tapes Canelo is watching. An he will use them to great advantage.

I'm seeing it similar. Canelo is going to get a highlight reel of counter punches against GGG, digging with uppercuts and hooks to the body to slow him down, I don't think Canelo pushes for the stoppage once he tires though unless he catches him with one good shot and sees him in trouble.

GGG should just put earmuffs on and get stuck in every second of every round. Push Canelo to the ropes and the limit.

Good points. Yeah, both fighters will have to crank it into high gear to get thru it. This will be a tough one.

GGG is so one demensional Canelo duckedbthe **** out of him. Oh, wait, that's right, WBC, mandates, blah.

Stop it, Canelo said he was ready after Cotto, wouldn't negotiate. Ask for an interim knowing when he fought Khan there was a 15 day period. Canelo team broke negotiation off until after Khan, then used it as an excuse to duck ggg. Only after Mexican media butt ****d him did he make up these court case excuses.

Gomez could have negotiated that fight. Hell, after vacated he could too, but instead went for a domestic U.K. Fighter.

Khan, Smith, two highlight reels KO to help sell the right.

They were hoping ggg slowed at 35 while selling better. Ok, but stop pretending it's anything but.

You're gonna ****ing feel salty if ggg at 35 skunks Canelo. Then what, that limited fighter is what, too big for your prime Ginger.

This isn't Cotto, Khan, Smith, Kirkland, Zombie Chavez. Even at 35 GGG will be the most dangerous fighter Canelo has fought.

Agree. Actually Oscar pretty much admitted to ducking Golovkin until they made this deal recently. He now feels "Canelo is ready."

It's the same prefight scenario with all these guys. They mouth off posturing about Golovkin's this, Golovkin's that, he's been exposed blah blah blah. Meanwhile Golovkin sits back, remains respectful of his opponents and then delivers a beat down to every one of them.

[j.razor]

How could he answer that? He doesn't know, f@ggot...

Man I wish I had you in the ring.
