Comments Thread For: Canelo Rejects Claims He Made GGG Fight After Signs of Decline

[DocGreenThumb.]

You're just like your idol. My knock outs are better than yours. Wtf is that when Conellos fought inferior competition.With his catch weight advantages. GGG would walk through every fighter that Connello has faced in 6 rounds or less. Kush king keep on drinking the kool aid. Your idols been the biggest hype job and protected fighter. Always has to have an advantage in his fights.

Kirkland doesn't have the means of delivery that Golovkin does though. If you line everyone up on a punch machine I think we'd get very misleading results on power. Kirkland never landed anything useful on Canelo, and has no wins of note on hes record save Angulo, the slowest guy I've ever seen. Among the "bums" Golovkin put to sleep was a man Kirkland couldn't even last a round with.Btw, I can destroy anyone's record like you just did. Including Canelo's.

??? U do know Alcine who BEAT GGG's 2nd best opponent Lemuix got KTFO in 1 round against Angulo?? ohh BTW.

Canelo fears no one

G-String groupies are already lining up the excuses.

Does anyone on this site post anything about boxing itself, about strategy and the like? All I read it seems is babble about who is ducking whom, who should get more money, who is going to destroy the opponent without rational explanation as to why. It seems that there are few actual boxing fans on this site, but there is an abundance of cheerleaders and haters. The level of discussion is often prepubescent and not much more. Let's up the game folks!

Apparently not. I'm mostly interested in how Canelo takes a tru MW punch and how GGG does past 8 rounds in a dogfight since he rarely ever goes past 8...

So what does that prove? Did you read what I was responding to when I wrote that? My whole point was it's no good bringing up Kirklands KO record and applying it to this fight in any way. For example, you know Khan, who fought on even terms with Canelo for several rounds, couldn't even last a round with Brendis Prescott. Kirkland hasnt got one other good win than Angulo, who has less speed than Frank Bruno wearing lead boots walking through treacle. Kirkland couldn't last a round with Ishida. No chin. He didn't land a good punch on Canelo because he's crude. So how does any of this show how Canelo handles a hard punching durable middleweight again?

Kirkland also didn't have Ann Wolfe. And if you know boxing you'll know she don't play. Kirkland lost every time he didn't have her. And looked TERRIBLE every time

Canelo is a tough guy and can take a punch, but it remains to be seen if he can take GGG's sledgehammer blows. I think he will see GGG's punches coming -- no mystery there, but if he catches GGG with a combination that GGG doesn't see early on in the the fight, it will be interesting. Otherwise, it could be a GGG beat down of Canelo.

Rarely, they would spend months accusing one fighter of ducking, they then cry how no one watches boxing anymore because top guys aren't fighting top guys etc.

when the fight finally gets made they would spend months looking for excuses like weight, gloves, no drug testing or which drug testing agency to use etc and after the fight they would still moan or disappeared when their favourite does win.

Look for examples Garcia v Matthyse, Ward v Kovalev first and second fight. Or a lot of Mayweather fights over the last 10 years.

I agree. I think it is part of the social media age. With the relatively anonymity the internet offers anyone can grab attention by making outrageous claims and accusations without being held to some standard of proof.

It's simple my friend, GGG has a perfect jab, and Canelo has to pass that to land anything, one thing is certain that he cannot KO GGG and it'll be a hard job to box GGG when you are landing 4 jabs at most a round.
I also started a topic abt that last week: https://www.boxingscene.com/forums/s...d.php?t=757772

I smell Bull****!

I know. Did they actually think he'd admit to it? If he did, people think the fight's a joke and don't purchase the PPV.

Then, if he goes out and gets destroyed by a guy that he waited to fight until he thought was washed up, how is that going to look?
