    Most eastern Europeans do dope that shouldn't be a surprise.

    Canelo on the other hand has that fuucking aztec jaw.

        Well at his age his stamina and chin will begin to fade. He does appear to have a great chin and very good stamina BUT I'm not sure that many of those Canelo punches were fully loaded. Golovkin got hit with some decent punches but Canelo was rarely set to fully fire his heaviest shots at him and Golovkin never landed his best shots either because both their defenses were good enough to prevent that.

        All these top guys are probably on performance enhancing drugs. Golovkin is just the best of the bunch, that's all.

          Lol, yeah. I posted a clip of it on the forum a few days ago.

          But yeah, you're right. Other than that fight, I've never seen Canelo rocked that bad besides that fight. And he was young. Yeah man, Canelo has a good chin. I agree.

            Was he actually down in that fight? I thought he was just wobbled.

                Naah..

                It's the mix race that's given him the best of both worlds.

                Korean and Kazakhstan.

                Discovery channel mentioned. A human is stronger when your mate is genetically farther in race than your mate. Hence, Korean and Kazakhstan has genetically engineered him to be a human tank.

                Plus eating kimchi will make any korean stronger.

                  It is called having a good chin.

                  That combo he took from Jacobs in the 12th without blinking was insane though. If nothing else, he is in the hall of greatest chins of all time.

                    It's because as opposed to Golovkin; Canelo is not a natural middleweight. It took him several years in order for him to grow into that weight division. Canelo is the naturally smaller man and his punches are a lot quicker and faster than GGG's because they're a lot lighter than GGG's. So it's not that far fetched or out of the ordinary why Gennady was able to absorb and eat punches from a naturally smaller and quicker opponent like Saul Alvarez.

                      Yeah, see, he's injecting straight into his face. That way, the juice localizes in the main punch zone, turning him into some kind of punch-eating machine.
