Comments Thread For: Canelo vs. Golovkin Rematch Finalized For May 5, HBO PPV

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

Canelo exposes ggg and the rematch will only be easier for Canelo.

I see a 116-112 card for Canelo this time or possible stoppage to the body

yup usually rematches are easier for the winner so either GGG bulldozes Canelo or Canelo outclass GGG and possibly get that stoppage.

To me Canelo is the guy who has to make more changes to win the rematch. I mean win the rematch without the aid of the judges. I'm doubtful he can do it. Stamina is a big factor in his (IMO) lose. He also has to stay off the ropes. On the flip side Golovkin has to be more accurate and go to the body. I think it's easier for him than Canelo if age hasn't caught up with him.

Well 1 judge thought MarGGGarito beat Ca$hnelo so...lololol

Bias judging goes both ways ^^

There is also the fact that 85% of pundits thought that GGG clearly won.

Like I said before punch stats don't judge a fight. They call a cross hook uppercut as a power punch. It's an easy way to keep track of the punches. It disconnected from reality on the effectiveness of those punches. The judges don't use this definition of a power punch to determine how a fight is scored. They look at the effect of the punches to determine if they are meaningful. You guys are looking at punch stats which is not used in scoring a fight. Punch stats omit all kinds of information about what happened in the ring. Judges score fights not CompuBox. It's amazing that I have to explain that to you..

Bro - A power jab is still a jab. Nobody ever said punch-stats or Compubox have anything to do with scoring a fight, but they are the best record for characterizing a particular fighter's punch selection when viewing the fight as a whole. It has never been a vehicle to judge a punches "effectiveness". Why are you mixing apples and oranges?

At one point in time it was criminal and carried a death sentence to think/say the world was round.

Just ask Galielo.

In years to come people will realize just how wrong, approximately 85% wrong, about that first fight

Canelo wore "Winning" gloves during their fight in May due to bruised hands. Any picture following JCC fight shows a very badly bruised Right-hand. He didn't have time to let the hand fully heal prior to training camp for their first fight.

Winning gloves are like Floyd gloves...pillows for brittle hands.

Canelo will go back to wearing crisper Everlast in this fight. Expect his punches to have a greater impact than was the case in the first fight
