Just by looking at Golovkins resume and where his KOs come from, it was due to his opponents not being able to nullify his offense and defend their own vulnerabilities. Golovkin is a testament of an amazingly skilled ring tactician. He clearly does not have the full body reflex speed like someone of Canelo or Sergio Martinez where their style prioritizes it. He is like that of Marcos Maidana or George Foreman. He intelligently utilizes his full range of power taking into account the perfect timing nessecary to predict where and when to throw his shots before the opportunity presents itself.
Canelo and Jacobs are good enough ring tacticians to take away any success Golovkin can have at the expense of their own work rate by killing valuable time moving and fighting defensively at large.
Golovkin was only going to knockout or basically stop Canelo if Canelo decided to fight offensively. Otherwise there wasnt enough opportunities to inflict enough damage Golovkin would have to throw. Let's face it Canelo has a great chin, proved to be quite physically durable and was on his bike consistently last night. What is is. Expect the rematch to look the exact same.
