Comments Thread For: Teddy Atlas: Canelo Might Beat 'Overrated' Golovkin Easy!

[kidbazooka]

I disagree with the overrated comment. GGG reminds/reminded me of julio cesar chavez in his explosive days. But am I one of those that believed/believe a talented "mover" couldve exposed that relentless style of his?? I unashamedly always did!......Canelo isnt the greatest of movers, but he's learned enough to take care of this older past prime version of the G-man imo. Unless of course GGG turns back the clock with some smooth cutting off of the ring while getting off first.......

Sanchez did want to make ggg into Chavez but it’s easier said than done.

I think Abel is content with having ggg more of a poor mans Chavez but even a poor mans Chavez is still pretty damn good

Well Teddy, we're all entitled to our opinions I suppose. "Over-rated" does seem a bit harsh for an undefeated three title belt holder who's fought anyone who would climb into the ring with him.

GGG is half Korean so he not white white OK his mother!

White boxers like Ggg, Klitschko vrothers, Kovalev, Lomachenko will never get their credit because of the racism and corruption that controls boxing. Lebox Lewis was losing to Vitali Klitschko and the ref called an early stoppage due to a cut. Kovalev god robbed in the 1st fight qgaibst Ward and lost by a nut punch abd corruption in the 2nd fight. Ggg is about to break Bernard Hopkins 160 title defense record. Wlad Klitschko dominated heavyweight for many years. Loma appears to be the best boxer on the planet. Yet still people always find a way to try to discredit them, even using their robberies as examples. People cant deal with the fact that Eastern Europeans are starting to take over the game.

Isn’t GGG from Central Asia???
Also I think white fighters get rememdous credit! GGG was always overrated! A few of his defenses were interim/regular title defense(which shouldn’t count). Loma is rightfully placed 1 or 2 in P4P talks! Wlad will be a hall of famer without beating one hall of famer. Kovalev is a 2 time light heavyweight champion with a chance to clean up the division. Vitali will be in the HOF! What more do you want?

😂😂😂😂😂😂

Overrated because Canelo is only the 3rd world champion he’s fought and one guy was a welterweight champion.

Atlas lost his damn mind

[Yerlan T.]

But teddy gave golovkin 10 rounds what does that make canelo then?

Hahahaha, spot on, bro. Atlas, saying "Golovkin is overrated" but giving him the victory at the same time, doesn't realize how heavily he hurts Canelo's reputation - so it means, prime Canelo lost to 35 years old, past his prime and "overrated" boxer.

[ThomasJK]

You mean the same

Overrated because Canelo is only the 3rd world champion he’s fought and one guy was a welterweight champion.

Welter weight that walks around at probably 165-170 lbs on any given day. OK then. Well I don't recall anyone holding a gun to Kell Brooks head to sign to fight GGG either. I guess he thought he knew what he was doing. Boy was he wrong. I also don't recall a wave of MW's fighting over themselves to climb into the ring with GGG at that time either. Eubank called him out, and GGG called his bluff. Something about losing his pen?!?!?! Hard to blame any fighter for a poor resume when other fighters within the division avoid him like the plague which was the trend at that time. Look at Wilder, he's kind of fallen into the same mode. Not so great resume, but avoided by the other top guys in his division. Maybe GGG and Wilder are both over-rated, but that is yet to be determined.

I’m confused. “Overrated GGG”. What does that make Canelo? Because he couldn’t beat an overrated fighter.
