    He missed a lot of right hands in the first fight. A simple adjustment and those could land. Other than that it's hard to improve in winning 8 rounds.

      He needs to go to the body and cut off the ring better. He thinks Canelo is another Lemieux who will just stand there and take a slow hayemaker to the head instead of dancing away from him all night.

      I had him winning, moreso based on Canelo doing less than anything impressive.

      Whoever wins I hope Jacobs or Charlo beats them. Sick of GGG and Canelo and BJS isn't reliable to fight the best opponents

        Be specific. Talk about strategy and skills. And don't just say he's more determined. (He's also like, more older.)

        What can Golovkin do to Canelo this September that he didn't do before? And why?
        I think 8-4 is pretty decisive and that was my original score. I'm NOT a GGG fan mind you. I was rooting for Cleneloterol to win.

        To get more rounds in the bank, he needs to throw more punches when he hunts. He was huting a bit too much and wasn't letting his hands go. He needs to get Cleneloterol to throw more so he can catch him in the middle. Don't be as repetitive with the punch choice either and most of all, work the body from round 1.

        Clenelo WILL get on the bike so GGG needs to get some air out of those tires as quickly as possible. Take the legs out and the head will follow.

          "go to the body" sounds so simple. he didn't do it for a reason. Canelo is arguably the best counter and combination puncher in the game. Golovkin knew the risks of punching downstairs and never took it.

          Golovkin should stick to what he did in the first fight except finish rounds stronger. Canelo seemed to always finish better as the round ended.

          If lil g gets too wild trying to prove a point Canelo will lay his ass out. that's why he never got careless in the first fight. it was a chess match.

            I think Golovkin might try and step on the gas from the start. He was pretty tentative early. Making Canelo work harder earlier.

            For what ever reason it seems Golovkin stopped throwing to the body.
            Yep, it depends on which canelo we get. And yes not throwing to the body was silly by GGG.

              He still need to take the risk of mixing it up, he was aware of Canelo's speed, so he was hesistant to go to the body. Thats why most of his punches were jabs. But there are levels to this stuff, if GGG is really above those levels then he needs to find a way to win.

                incorrect.


                GGG boxed behind a beautiful jab that couldn't miss. That is boxing. Reminded me of a prime Larry Holmes


                What Canelo was doing wasn't boxing. he was getting bullied from rope to rope to rope and having most of his flurries blocked.

                  He don’t need to do nothing different but come in to the fight in better shape to chase chicken Canelo running the whole fight. Oh and maybe wear some good track shoes.GGG won the first fight and he will win this next one definitively.

                    Landing the jab but missing nearly 70% of power shots is boxing now? lol

                    Golovkin looked like absolute crap out there. I'm not going to waste my time explaining all the beautiful things Canelo did, I'd rather use my superior boxing IQ to better use.

                      canelos counters... he opens more and will be easier job for canelo...
                      ggg did good fighting behind his jab and being cautious.. his best chance is to continue like that...
                      ... yes... stay behind the jab ad repeat the "ballet" from the first fight, right?...
