Just look at the Martin Murray fight where he wasn't just cutting off the ring, he was side-stepping and using high energy maneuvers after cutting off the ring to set up clean shots. But lately, similar to Manny Pacquiao as he declined, the outline of the footwork he used to have was there, the basics of the footwork he used to have was there, but the "finishing moves," the much more high-energy-output dependent moves to step side-to-side to create cleaner combinations, those were mostly missing vs Canelo.
At least, they seemed to be somewhat to me. I just compare GGG's energy level in the Murray fight vs the Canelo fight, not to mention the better speed and power during the Murray, and I didn't see the same guy. I hope the rematch proves me wrong, but judging solely from the first GGG-Canelo fight, the Jacobs fight, the Brook fight, and the Wade fight, I feel the promoters took the fans for granted again and made this fight 2 years too late. Ages 33 and 25, with GGG 1 year past the end of prime years and GGG 1 year before the start of peak years, would have been a much better, more fair balance of both their prime ages than one at age 27, absolute peak age, and the other at age 35, 3 years past the end of peak years.
Instead of 1-1, which was still significant advantage to Canelo since being 1 year before your prime is better than being 1 year past it, but instead of 1-1, we got essentially negative 3 to 0, where 0 represents being at peak age, and negative numbers represent how far not just past your peak you are, which would be like negative 8 for GGG based on average fighter's peaks, or about negative 5 in his case, but how far past the end of prime years, or your prime years, you are, which in GGG's case are both the same, since he started his decline at basically the exact age almost every other offensive fighter does, 32 and a half.
So, I do think the promoters took the fans for granted, and sacrificed another product's quality in exchange for being able to sell it to more people. But, I hope to be proven wrong in the rematch, if GGG can maybe fix some things in training and magically recapture his prime... Here's hoping!
Murray is a sh.it as fighter.
And Golovkin thrown near of 700 punches vs Canelo.
That's a good number.
Golovkin is in a good moment, stop with the excuses.

BTW i think GGG can beat Canelo with just a few adjustments. I dont think hes past his prime yet. But the gameplan was wrong, he has to use more bodyshots and lateral movement in the rematch and he wins it simple put. I think he trained to mutch for power, he has to train more for speed.Last edited by Tobi.G; 10-03-2017, 01:38 AM.
