Comments Thread For: Canelo: I Did Not Feel Golovkin's Power, Not Really

[Daccan]

keep thinking that Golovkin would be the same fighter at 154

if Golovkin could make 154, he would be fighting there..... and if he could make 154, he would have negotiated on weight with little old faded 153lb Cotto..... who was his best possible payday

stop being silly

Yes, GGG might be unable of making 154. That doesn't mean there's a 154 fighter there that could stand in the ring at Canelo-esque catchweight which he could make.

hold on.....

we said that Golovkin was knocking out B/C-level fools, and you guys called us haters LOL

Never called anybody anything. Nice try to rope me in

[aboutfkntime]

Alvarez is at his absolute prime and he had to take a minute off each round in order to answer the final bell.
The Mexican has a decent chin and he fought to survive. Golovkin 8-4, Canelo-no problemo.

Golovkin got off to his usual SLOW start, losing early rounds in the process..... then he gassed after missing wildly with a TON of punches..... then he forgot to show up in the championship rounds

he was extremely lucky to escape with his belts

Golovkin aint no killer bro, rumors of his greatness have been exaggerated

he got exposed by a mid-level middleweight, then a blown-up JMW

This is a damn good post. I thought GGG had more to bring to the table but i was wrong. He's just a really good fighter (like Canelo) Not some ATG.

exactly !!

right, then what is your problem ?

give it a rest, there have been enough muppets running around talking all that 154-168 crap over the last few years

that myth has been busted

[Reloaded]

So why run???

Natural size and the fact Alvarez couldn't hurt him at all and also Canelo is a counter puncher.

Canelo took some great shots and never even blinked, no doubt GGG has power but as the class of opponent went up his perceived power went down which usually happens.

But the confidence killer that is GGG didn't go away. Canelo was visibly starting to look desperate in the mid rounds trying to figure out what to do. Canelo has never backed up in such a way, even when getting blown away by Mayweather. He definitely felt something that made him think twice about trading in the center of the ring.

"Blown-up JMW" You mean a blown up MW? Canelo walks around at a higher weight than GGG when he's offseason, how is that blown up JMW status? Apparently Tito Trinidad was just a blown up "JMW" when he was dominating 154 and only lost to great or very good fighters at 160 that all went to the 12th round.

damn, still need to spend time schooling the casuals

1) walk-around weight is completely irrelevant..... boxing uses weight divisions..... have you never wondered why?

2) 2 fights ago Canelo won the WBO Junior Middleweight Title. his body will adapt to 160 over the next couple of camps..... he will be better/stronger, and his stamina will level out

go on then, reply and tell me how great Golovkin is again..... despite the fact that he could not get a clean win over Jacobs or Canelo

Completely irrelevant only when it's roided up muscle like Canelo or Mosley maybe. Wasn't Jacob's tactic to blow back up to his natural weight which was higher than GGG's? Jacobs needed aboutfkntime's immense knowledge to understand he didn't know what the **** he was doing

2) 2 fights ago Canelo won the WBO Junior Middleweight Title. his body will adapt to 160 over the next couple of camps..... he will be better/stronger, and his stamina will level out

... and Trinidad totally showed us he was an undisputed middleweight by knocking Joppy out in his big debut in middleweight, and he will totally do the same to Hopkins! Wait a minute. Keep making unsubstantiated claims lol. Canelo had stamina issues at 147, he had stamina issues at 154... BUT AT 160 it'll all just fix itself! He will be so much stronger that his haymakers will be able to get a reaction out of GGG this time! He'll beat a 42 year old Golovkin by split decision in Vegas next time, don't worry

go on then, reply and tell me how great Golovkin is again..... despite the fact that he could not get a clean win over Jacobs or Canelo

Bwahahahahaha reading comprehension fail. Quote me saying Golovkin is the greatest and effortlessly whooped Jacobs and Canelo. You might find it on the corner of "Floyd MD Alvarez" and "Alvarez 118-110 GGG", as I'm sure you've been through that road before
