how do we know canelo has a chin?

[TheBigLug]

I reckon Canelo's got a decent beard.

That said, whether he can take GGG's shots is another matter altogether. I don't think anyone at 160 can afford to really take too many flush shots from Golovkin, i think that has been established.

Canelo can't afford to make any mistakes in this one.

didn'T you justify Gennady'S reason for clinching as ''neutralizing'' as you put it?

therefore you find his option as normal correct? hence a normal tactic, as in the way you insinuate, ''hey, it was no problem! Gennady had it all under control!'' - Ho-szef

''normal''

WTF does that drivel even mean?

Golovkin doesn't clinch very often, but he does sometimes like
many other fighters do. But it's not his 'normal tactic'.

And Golovkin clinching in that video is not comparable to Ward's at all because:

a) he clinches 10x times less than Ward,


b) clinching is actually a part of Ward's offense.

Acccording too the definition you posted, 'normal' means:


1.
conforming to the standard or the common type; usual; not abnormal; regular; natural.

You see the diffrence now or do I have to write it in Turkish?

booohooo! ''Ward does this!! Leave lil g alone!''

Jacobs is more skilled and hits way harder IMO

That's your opinion. You're entitled to that. I'm 360 the other way.

And if Jacobs does hit harder he should, he's the bigger man. But he isn't a precision puncher like Canelo.

Yet another constructive counter argument.

Go to bed, son.

Golovkin has looked quite mortal when he has faced decent competition. He is pretty clearly declining. Canelo has a much better resume and gets better every fight. I think Canelo wins a wide decision or gets a late KO.

[Diego Rodriguez]

so how often does Gennady clinch after a pouncing hook to the face?

Actually quite common when they come inside. His head movement might have been more telling but Golovkin also has a tendency to shake his head up and down when he gets tagged good. He might have been shaken a bit with this punch but far from conclusive. Canelo was clearly very hurt.

All that said I don't think that punch says anything about Canelo's chin. But I will say we haven't seen him hit yet by anyone like Golovkin, so his chin will be put to the test I believe.

Maybe. Plus there's the X factor. What is the unexpected thing that's going to happen?

Looking forward to it.

To me the unexpected thing is GG outboxing Canelo or Canelo being able to take GGs punch and stop him.

Everyone is saying that Canelo will outbox GG or GG will ko Canelo.

But I see this as both fighters fighting a smart tactical fight.
