GGG Wasn't Allowed To Throw Body Shots...

[satiev1]

logic not found as addressed in the OP.


GGG was taking plenty of risks like stalking and winging that ****** looping right hand upstairs.

Ate hard counters too but never stopped doing either.


so what would exactly deter him from the body attack? since he was wakling Canelo down anyway. He was running Canelo down. He was not afraid of Canelo's counters.


it looked exactly like Margarito against Cotto where Cotto's shots were bouncing off him..... but except Margarito in this case didn't throw body shots cus he's getting scared to get countered?


make some sense.

Not saying you're wrong, but how do you explain the fact he did throw body shots in some rounds?

[El Gitano]

I am convinced.

The logic that he was afraid to get countered upstairs makes no sense because he was getting hit flush moving forward all fight anyway. And he was getting countered throwing his looping right hand.

Did he stop moving forward? Did he stop throwing the looping right?


No and No.

Was it like Jacobs where GGG had to fight him in the middle of the ring? No... it was against the ropes.


He simply completely abandoned his body attack which has carried him so far in his career. His body attack is what broke Kell Brook by the 5th(faster than canelo with movement and counters). Lemiuex. Murray etc.




I'm sorry to say but GGG took a bribe for money. He's ensured a rematch now. part 2....

I remember reading Doug Fischer's report years ago on their sparring session, he mentioned that GGG hurt Canelo once or twice to the body. It would be logical he'd be aiming for the body during the fight, but nope, part of his contract said no body shots, I suppose.

[HeadShots]

Ignorant.

Margarito and Cotto are different fighters.

You are forgetting that Canelo is a body puncher too and he didnt land too much to the body.

That's is too normal.

Estrada is a great specialist too and he didnt landed to the body against Cuadras

ahh *** you are ******.


how many stoppages does Canelo have to the body? Liam Smith?


GGG has Lemiuex, Murray, Brook, Macklin, and the list goes on and on. Except Brook, all full fledged middleweights too.

he has just as many body finishes as he does head shots.


that's how effective his body attack is. it's on a completely different level from Canelo's body attack game.



Completely different levels.

[kidbazooka]

Wow you guys are fuucking idiots if you think he took a bribe.

You compare a bum like lemiux to canelo.

Wow u guys are fuucking ******.

[Larry the boss]

man this is just sad..lol

I agree with everything you said except for the rematch. No way in hell is canelo fight him again. He's content with the draw

[HeadShots]

Not saying you're wrong, but how do you explain the fact he did throw body shots in some rounds?

sporadic.

it was like Jake Lamotta vs Bill Fox. he just threw punches to make it look real.

it wasn't a sustained attack like how he always does.



even when the decision was read, he was laughing. he didn't seem seriously bummed.



honestly it's because he didn't tarnish his legacy AND he's doubling up on the payday.


let's say he gets 15-20 mil. it's doubled.


If he didn't land Canelo, who would he fight? Charlo for 3 mil? or BJS for 5 mil?



it makes no sense financially. he secured the rematch with a perfect performance and drama.

[kidbazooka]

He didn't throw bodypunnches cuz canelo was lighting his ass up with counters.

Nuff said.

[spenz]

He did throw some body shots but it's not enough. This should be the job of abel to remind him that it is a vital part of his overall weapon. If he goes to the body more, he'd probably tire out Canelo even more and maybe he could open him up so that those loaded overhand right could finally connect more solidly.

He would probably get hit more but his chin can easily take Canelo's best punch anyway. In the rematch, we could expect this body punch bonanza to be there for sure.

[j.razor]

Come on man, I watched the fight with all the boxers from the gym, and this O.G. Ex fighter straight called it.

He said GGG just got old, he could see the shots but he just couldn't pull the trigger in time, and the more he missed the more he fought with his heart instead of his head.

Able if he was this great trainer should of calmed him down and had him working the body.

Wait, I thought he "got old" when he fought Jacobs? It's just a wild guess but maybe he couldn't pull the trigger because he was blocking the punches with his face & body??
