"Daniel Jacobs was able to do well against Golovkin by boxing well and showing movement, which Canelo doesn’t do. I think they are both going to be in the pocket exchanging," Bernstein

Exactly. Canelo is in trouble!

Cotto knocked middleweight Geale out, but Canelo didn't feel punches of Cotto.

Cotto knocked middleweight Geale out, but Canelo even didn't feel punches of Cotto.

Cotto doesnt punch harder like GGG.

[sammybee]

Canelo has a chance of hurting GGG especially with those combinations to give him a relieve from GGG onslaught but that wont stop GGG from delivering his bazooka punches. GGG has a granite chin. He has never been dropped before.

I think Canelo can take punches of GGG better than Jacobs.

[True That]

Cotto knocked middleweight Geale out, but Canelo didn't feel punches of Cotto.

Geale was weight drained from the 157lb catchweight, besides that Daniel Geale is not very good at all. He's been getting beat and knocked out by everyone lately.

We'll see how this fight plays out. Golovkin hasn't been hurt or dropped by anyone in the amateurs or the pros. Canelo has shown himself to be a tough cookie himself. We'll see what happens when the irresistable force goes against the immovable object.

Canelo has a better chance to beat Golovkin if he fights at close range throwing his combos. GGG's jab and power shots are most effective at a mid-range distance. Canelo has to make a phone-booth fight to clearly win.

Canelo is going to have to hope for a cut that sevierly affects GGG to win. That's his only shot.

Canelo will have to find a way to take away GGG'S jab. If he can't, it's going to be a long night for Canelo.
