Your an idiot,my life don't revolve around 1 fighter like gggarglers/gggbaggers. So if ggg loses will you admit your a ****** 4 saying canelos has no chance? Course not

You're*

its like golovkin ****d your sister or something the way you hate him and he's barely in my top 5 of current fav fighters right now lol. I never said canelo has no chance either if he makes it to the final Bell he may very well win on the cards with oscars judges. The difference here is if and when golovkin wins you will still continue to hate him like he stole something from you.

Jacobs DEFINITELY hits harder than Canelo.

However, against Golovkin, I feel like Canelo will hit harder because he won't be afraid to trade with Golovkin like Jacobs was in the early rounds.

Jacobs didn't start sitting on his punches until later in the fight when he realised that GGG could no longer hurt him.

Canelo has more confidence in his chin so I think he will sit on his punches and he will try to break down Golovkin to the body.

However I repeat, Jacobs DEFINITELY has more power in his punches than Canelo. This is not even debatable.

I think jacobs like ggg has more sustained power overall but canelo may just have more 1 punch haymaker power. And don't underestimate him being able to not have to drain as much to make weight combined with being able to fill in extra 5 lbs of solid muscle compared to usual as he normally has to cut to 155 then rehydrate so one cannot fill to 160 of pure muscle if making 155/154 weigh in.I think this whole camp canelo has looked less drained than ggg who looks less cut than I have seen him

That's a bold call, you might be right though.

The first couple of rounds are going to be significant for both guys. If Canelo feels GGG's power and doesn't like it, he might be less willing to let combinations off or commit to punches as he usually would. but if he feels ok with it, he might be able to fight his normal fight

On the other hand, if GGG doesn't respect Canelo's power at all once he feels it, Canelo might be in for a rough night. You need to get GGG's respect. As sharp as Canelo might be with his punches, if they're not hurting Golovkin and they're getting more tired as the fight goes on, the sharpness goes out of those shots. Then GGG might get to work.

Your the ****** whos every word about canelo is full of hatful diatribe just like most gggroupies,I never refer to ggg with the slanderous ******ity you do,I use as many facts to support my opinion as possible while always maintaining that ggg is a very skilled fighter with a bad resume. So keep deflecting...

And becoming the grammer police on this site just shows your a straw man deflecting like all grammer police tards.

Its that type of ******ity I'd expect from a dumb flômo like you who thinks someone gaf if my pick loses,suck it easy.

GGG looks quite bigger compared to canelo

GGG is 3 inches taller and much thicker.

[Verus]

You really think Canelo hits harder than Jacobs?

Jacobs hit harder when he stops plants his feet, but he moves around a lot. Canelo's combinations are more frequent and crisper.

[Shadoww702]

i don't understand the whole 155 lbs thing. canelo looks good at 160 lbs. he might be shorter than GGG but he is pretty wide.

???? It's called growing up. This is Canelo's 4th weight class as a pro... How many times has your GOD moved up???

Damn your DUMB!

Can't help but think of something Golovkin said a while back 'they all come in with a game plan, then I hit them a little, then no more game plan'.

I remember before a JCC Sr fight where the commentator said his opponents have to deal with three things: pressure, pressure, then more pressure. Sr did it by always cutting off the ring and never letting up, and Golovkin does the same thing. His opponents consistently say he doesn't actually hit that hard, its just that the punches don't stop, and its a constant flow of punches from all angles until one catches you that you didn't see coming - he doesn't even need to hit flush, the glancing punches do damage too.

Canelo won't get his rest breaks in this one, and he'll be hit harder and more frequently than he's ever been hit before, UNLESS he can land something that, for the first time, gets Golovkin to go backwards and stop his momentum.

Does Canelo have that sort of power ? Haven't seen it yet.

If Canelo pulls this one out I'll be digging into the thesaurus for superlatives and it will all but cement his eventual HOF place (imo).
