I've never understood this train of thought. Cotto had to use he's legs because he was out reached and outweighed. Golovkin hasn't got those disadvantages. In fact we haven't seen Saul deal with anyone bigger who isn't badly weight drained with zero output. We saw how easily Chavez soaked up the punches. Now we see how someone bigger does that while hitting back. Legs beat Canelo when your smaller or even. You might not need them when your bigger and more powerful.Did you not read Monroe's comments??? He said legs give Canelo problems and that's exactly what Cotto was doing when he fought Canelo. He was Boxing Canelo, giving him lateral movements and staying at a distance. Triple g won't give Canelo any of those problems. He'll come straight for Canelo and try to wear him down. That's where Canelo does his best work.
Thats why he's predicting Canelo by KO.Comment

Right on the money.I've never understood this train of thought. Cotto had to use he's legs because he was out reached and outweighed. Golovkin hasn't got those disadvantages.

Canelo has never faced anyone like Golovkin. He is facing a true MW with tremendous power who is a skilled boxer. Even if someone believes Canelo is going to win they have to acknowledge he is facing an opponent unlike anything he's ever faced before and there is a element of the unknown. This is what makes the fight exciting.Comment

Not many people can, Cotto was a great fighter but Cotto is also a lot smaller than Canelo and was nowhere near the fighter he was in his prime. GGG is a fair bit taller and I believe has a longer reach than Canelo. If GGG uses his jab like he did against Lemieux and early on against Jacobs then Canelo is going to have a hard time being effective and countering him.Comment

but, that jab was effective because it was being used on Lemieux
Canelo is not Lemieux
Canelo has been in there with guys who have GREAT jabs
has Golovkin been in there with guys as sharp as Canelo, with his timing/skill-set/repertoire?
Golovkin's jab should serve him well, but that fight will not play out like it did with Lemieux
if Golovkin cannot vary his jab it will get him in trouble
that right-hand over the top that sparked Khan, and stopped Chavez in his tracks..... is a thing of beauty
I wanna see Golovkin's plan-B once he realizes that he cannot sit back behind his jab all night after being introduced to that right-hand counter..... and Canelo has very good defence/head-movementComment

If Monroe or Murray sat on their punches they'd have somewhat close Canelo's power, dummy. Canelo's power is overrated. He's strong, sits on his punches very well, but couldn't TKO old Cotto and drained Chavez Jr.Comment

As I told you before idiot,Cotto was the LINEAL champ & a legend hof,who had destroyed Martinez which is a faaar more impressive win at mw than anyone gigis faced. He kod geale in 1 rd longer than gigi,funny how u claim not koing him is some failure for a 24 yr old while gigis 35 & hasn't fought anyone close to cotto esp. at that moment. As I told your dumbass also by your logic angulo is a harder puncher than gigi,he ko'd rosado in 1 rd,& gigi took 7 rds,& gigi fought him 4 yrs after Angulo. Angulo ko'd alcine in 1 rd & alcine beat lemule 4 yrs before gigi. Chavez jr destroyed Rubio 2 yrs before gigi. Your logic is pathetic, nuthugging

And Billy Joe Saunders says, "Willie Monroe, you're a mentally weak person, you're mentally weak. You quit once and you will quit again. When the going gets tough and somebody puts it on you, you will quit my friend Wille Monroe and that's a fact."Comment
