Comments Thread For: Canelo: I'm Prepared to Look to Knock Out Golovkin!

[livershot73]

I'm going with Canelo if it goes 12, If it's going to be a T(KO), it would be in G's Favorite.

I honestly can agree with this ^ ^ ^

My prediction is GGG TKO R10, but if goes 12 then Canelo will most likely be declared the winner...

This is exactly why I love fights like this because you can just never be too sure.....

[livershot73]

Its smart in a way cuz it's incredibly hard to try and just box GGG who can box a lil behind that stuff jab I like to call it! You have to make him respect you and then when he makes mistakes(which does cuz he's an overly aggressive fighter) you gotta make him pay dearly or he'll overpower you!

Canelo isn't saying he'll come in and just attack like a caveman, but that he'll fight with killer intelligence and counter with the shots you don't see coming to set up another counter for a KO!

It's possible due to GGG coming forward and Canelo knows how to counter jabs and get out of there!

I like the kids ambition!

We've never seen GGG hurt so it would be interesting if that happens and how Golovkin would respond to it since he's never experienced it!

On the other hand Canelo has been buzzed and hurt and seems to know what to do! Fight back a bit, move, clinch and stay off ropes!

The Reynoso bros seems to have gotten Canelo to look for the shots that GGG wont see coming...interesting!

I honestly have to admire that as well...he really believes (and always has, from what has been reported) that he can beat GGG...I'm looking forward to an excellent fight....GGG TKO10 but if Canelo wins fair and square (please f u c k ing judges!) then he was the better man Saturday and I will be the first one to give him his props!

And if GGG blows him out, what will that mean. You gonna consider your own comments spam.

Maybe, or just maybe you are getting more unsure as the fight gets closer.

The most sure bet is this fight goes the distance. If im wrong PLENTY of ppl well let me know. But saying Canelo is gonna be a walk in the park??? Is gonna be VERY, VERY highly unlikely but if you think so then put your $$$$ where your mouth is. I'll give u 3-1 odds Canelo makes it past round 6...But you won't because you know better. Just like that dope won't either

marquez couldnt drop bradley something lesser fighters did, but he almost killed pac... so no, triangle teories dont work in boxing...

Not a triangle theory, Canelo has proven that he does not have that crushing power. He is precise and has good combinations

[TOBYLEE1]

Your dumb.

JR. Has SUPERB whiskers. His heart is weak. Not his chin. He quit but wasn't in any real danger.

Trout has never been KO'd either and he just barely lost to the NEW boogeyman.

Lara?? Never been TKO'd.

Cotto took a BEATEN for 11 rounds with a guy who LOADED his gloves you dumb ***! And Pac needed to drain him and was probably on PEDs...

*** for that matter I can say why couldn't GGG KO Jacobs like Pirog did?? Or why he knocked him down the exact same amount of times as Pillow Fists did???

You call me dumb and you just contradicted yourself. When has triple G been knocked down or hurt. Idiota

[TOBYLEE1]

All those 3 fighters are more elusive than Golovkin. In addition he has probably trained to have more power for this fight. Those 2 combined would allow him to think like that.

Also, he can't go into a fight with the mentality "I don't think it's possible for me to ko GGG" that would be very damaging and limiting leading him to need a completely different game plan.

I don't think that Canelo would go with the I can't KO him. He just can't go for it. If it comes he is a good enough finisher to recognize it and go for it

[aboutfkntime]

Wrong. He is one of the best technical boxers out there. The best jab in the business and puts together powerful combos. Excellent balance and footwork and ring IQ years ahead of Canelo. He has been playing possum for the last year to get this coward to fight him. He will beat Canelo much easier than people think.

that is absolute rubbish

no, actually...... that was dribble

clean yourself up

you guys are making the same mistake with jabs, that you did with footwork

Golovkin has an excellent, authoritative, telephone pole jab..... but is it a well-educated jab?...... no

a much better example of a well-educated jab is Mayweather, or Ward

Ward can vary his jab much more than Golovkin, and he literally uses it to accomplish 3-things simultaneously..... Golovkin's jab is specifically trained/designed to do one thing..... albeit one important thing, which it performs extremely well

Ward has a much more cultured jab, because that is what his style requires..... and he has developed it accordingly..... whereas Golovkin's jab is specifically designed to do one thing, because that is what his style requires..... and he has developed it accordingly

same with footwork

Golovkin is excellent at cutting off the ring, which is very good footwork

Canelo also has very good footwork for a boxer/puncher, he is no more static than Gennady..... who btw, followed Brook in spots during that fight

yes, I know it was only Brook, and I know that Gennady was in full control at that point..... but..... I saw it, and Canelo is not Brook

Canelo actually has better footwork than Golovkin imo, and Golovkin is better at cutting off the ring..... simply because his style requires him to be effective at cutting off the ring..... but those techniques/traits are mutually exclusive

second consecutive top post

I kept saying the same thing about Ward v Krusher 2. I was proven all too wrong when Ward hurt him. I think the boxer generally beats the puncher at this level. In boxing tho so anything goes. I just hope its a good fight.

One thing none of us know is, how will Canelo's power be like with the weight. His speed could be compromised too. it will be hard to say. JC Jr. is built to last. He's garbage, but the guy can take a beating. I think the stamina argument is weak, in that GGG nor Canelo has shown to be exceptional. I would say Canelo has been on deeper waters more often against class competition, which I think would favor him.

GGG cuts the ring off well, however, he often squares up, which could put him on his ass with the right counter. This is the best Fighter GGG has ever faced by far. This is the most dangerous fighter Canelo's ever faced.

I always said, if Canelo's counters are able to slow down triple G we will have a great fight. The style of these two fighters are going to play into each other strengths since they don't use their legs for defense
