Comments Thread For: Mayweather Sr: Canelo Can Stop GGG - If He Goes To The Body

[Travycat]

Who knows, but when you swing to the body, the head is open. And Golovkin hits a lot harder to the head than Canelo does to the body. I've never seen GGG have problems being hit to the body. This fight just gets more fun, because you can't predict it.

Vice versa for Gennady

Bad ass...a FAIR and UNBIASED analysis of both fighters strengths and weaknesses...that's why I can't wait for Saturday! Thanks for sharing man...

Absolutely, you're welcome. I too am very much looking forward to this fight!

I keep seeing this silly comment constantly being posted "GGG doesn't like it to the body" lol neither does canelo nor does any boxer. some can take the shots better than others but I scratching my head as to why so many keep insinuating that GGG cant take body shots. I cant ever recall a time where he was seriously hurt, in trouble, in survival mode or bent over from a body shot. so where is this coming from?

When GGG gets hit to the head he continues fighting, we don't see any sign of hurt. But when the opponent hits him to the body, he steps back or he continues to block and he doesn't answer by any shot. He gets so passive. You can see it against Jacobs and Murray (early in the fight).

I fully expect a body attack to be Canelo's primary goal. He can win with it. Probably his only chance to hurt Golovkin, impede his attack.

Great advice from the man himself, the trainer of champions.

GGG is a midrange fighter. Getting in close, smothering him, and breaking down his body gives Canelo the best chance of winning.

but canelo never fights that way

Sure go to the body and leave the head wide open. Im sure ggg will take the trade off. Besides canelo is the one bulking up and dehydrating those muscles we'll see who can take the body work

Was going to say but u beat me to it... Canelo focuses on GGG body to much and he will be eating some hellacious counter shots upstairs.
