Comments Thread For: Sanchez: Canelo Knew if He Stopped - Golovkin Would KO Him!

Nonsense. Stamina is a natural talent. You either have it or you don't.

Of course you can work on it to make it better, but if the opponent is working just as hard as you for stamina, then it all comes down to who has more natural stamina. That's why you can have two marathon/long distance runners who train together but the other does better than the other.

There's zero scientific proof to back your claim. There's no "stamina gene", it's not in our bodies. It's about what we do with our bodies, how we do it and what we put in our bodies.

Even when training with each other you will never find two people who train exactly the same with exactly the same mindset and intensity for the exact same period of time, eat exactly the same amount of the same food and breathe the same air in the same room.


Those variables are what the marginal differences between worlds class athletes come down to, not genetics.

Canelo stood his ground plenty in the first fight and rocked Golovkin ; Gennady's defense was embarrassing at this level - it was so bad that Billy Joe got the courage to call him out!

Lol that picture.
Also lol @ "elusive". Bumnelo straight up ran

Honestly GGG fought dumb. He had no plan B besides chase Canelo and swing for a KO. He didn’t work the body nearly as much as he should have. A couple of punches to the ribs would have stopped all that movement and elusiveness. You can’t exxpect Canelo to just sit there and let you punch him.

sanchez....why u blame canelo about his style
it;s ur job as coach to give advice how to anticipate canelo's style
if golovkin fight the same way, i think canelo will win decision this time

Many times Canelo stopped, whether on the ropes or in the middle of the ring. And GGG couldn’t land anything significant apart from the jab. I think GGG and his team need to work on setting traps by using variety of punches.

This pathetic stuff coming from Sanchez here. “If only he just stopped so Golovkin could hit him”. Oh, really??

Well said. You would think GGG or his team would change it up after the 3/4th round but nope, he just did the same thing over and over again. Expecting Canelo to be stationary or to fight the “Mexican” stereotype way is just plain dumb. You have to do your homework on each fighter not their nationality.... There are levels to this shit, this isn’t immigration.

Imagine what they would have said if they fight BJS.

Gabe Rosado did well when he moved on Golovkin (note that there is a difference between move and run), Willie Monroe Jr did well when he moved on Golovkin, Kell Brook was winning the fight when he moved on Golovkin, Daniel Jacobs was winning when he moved on Golovkin, and Alvarez was winning when he moved on Golovkin.

Rather than any fear of the man, Abel Sanchez seems to know that Golovkin doesn't have the style to negate good movement (which is likely why they said he'll no to fighting Saunders in Kazakhstan).
