Comments Thread For: George Foreman: If Fight Goes Twelve - Canelo Will Beat Golovkin

[WesternChamp]

i give ggg 7 rounds max. if he doesnt hurt or take canelo out by the 7th round then he's not gonna win. canelo will beat him on points.

More or less agree. I mean its always an extreme & sorta nutty opinion to say "so & so can't win a decision" cuz its definitely not 100% true obviously. But the true premise of what people are saying with these sorta remarks I usually believe to some degree or another. Cuz I do think Canelo is figuratively coming into this fight up by 3 points on the cards before the bell rings for the first round. So GGG needs to win 8 rounds to win the fight by a close 1 point basically. GGG needs to win his rounds super clearly or get a KD or two to enhance his chances of negating that edge by Canelo & take that judge lean for Canelo away. Close rounds I think you can give to Canelo maybe ~75% of the time cuz the judges likely will.

My feeling too, but more so Moretti with the +3. Will be interesting to see how Moretti scores it.

First time I've heard Golovkin talk in terms of Gennady/GGG as being like Bruce Wayne/Batman (or whatever other alt persona fits there). Interesting.

I mean people are giving their opinions. Okay maybe some cats are fanboying, but fanboying happens with both guys in these sorta big PPV fight usually so that bs cancels itself out & generally I'd suggest people just ignore those cats cuz they aren't reasonable mfers 9 times outta 10.

The legit boxing fans have opinions & probably even favorites sometimes in a fight like this, but its not like they are usually against the guy they aren't picking as pro-the other guy & whoever is winning/wins they will give that guy their props during + after the fight. Its not about props for most of us. Its a fight & honestly both guys could deserve props after the fight regardless who wins. This sh^t ain't about that simple sorta sh^t to most cats here I don't believe. Most just wanna see a good fight, but they tend to be the quiet majority.

This is how I see it.

Decisions typically favor the boxer when the puncher can't hurt or knock down the boxer. Consider the aesthetics of a boxer landing clean punches while the puncher searches to land a hard shot.

This fight may come doen to which guy has the mental fortitude to stay disciplined in the championship rounds and not give away openings. I felt mental lapses cost Jacobs in the middle rounds as he gave Golovkin openings to steal rounds he was initially controlling.

This!!!! A head Hunter will be exposed and fall for traps left and right chasing that KO!!! Against a better boxer.

If power was all that is needed than Lemuix would be a P4P top #10 instead of a C Class fighter...

The best of the best are ALL AROUND skilled boxers with lil weaknesses.

*** casual fans probably rate Kimbo Slice as the best boxer because he has a VERY high KO rate!!!

[Shadoww702]

And disguise their weaknesses as strengths

[Shadoww702]

Triple GGG must KO canola elsewise he will be cheated out of the win by corrupt judges referee promoters and sanctioning organizations and KO the fake mexican he will

So your saying the better boxer won't win fairly because he's better at boxing???

GGG has the DUMBEST fans...smh

Foreman: "Golovkin, that's all he knows. Land those good hard body shots and to the head. He doesn't seem to know anything else."

... sure: no stiff jab... no legs cutting the ring... no ring IQ...
