Comments Thread For: Hopkins: Canelo Must Go To The Body To Stop Golovkin

That's the point. Why didn't he do it more often? Because he couldn't. Then other guy takes your weapons away. That's boxing. The whole point is people were talking about him stopping Golovkin to the body "because Kovalev". What nonsense. You must have heard or read about Golovkins whole career if you think he's vulnerable to the body since he's never been hurt or down.

lil g don't like getting touched to the body. Nelo was just trying too hard to knock him out & the face was wide open the whole night. Shame on Nelo for thinking he could K.O. lil g, lil g is bigger than him. Nelo has to go to throw body shots early & often followed by the uppercuts that lil g can only block with his face.

Well nobody likes them coz believe me they hurt. However to throw enough meaty ones you do have to set yourself abit, and Canelo is not going to risk that against a middleweight puncher. Maybe Golovkin is abit bigger frame wise, but Canelo wasn't stopping guys who were smaller than him too consistently either.Hes not a power puncher unless it's a Khan or Kirkland who are vulnerable fighters.
