Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Triple-G Should Talk In the Ring, Try to KO Canelo

[taino78]

I expect Canelo won't come in as bulky as the first fight. So maybe he can box a full 12 if necessary. His stamina was terrible and that's what made it closer.

I really think this is going to do massive business in September.

If Canelo has any sense he'll keep talking. Both him and G just need to look no further back than a year and see how Mayweather and especially McGregor turned a total farce into a massive financial success just by projecting a fake image of hate and aggression towards each other. Probably still call each other once a week for suggestions on how to spend the $$

Canelo has to improve his stamina and Golovkin can't just headhunt all night.

If they stand and trade it's probably to Golovkin's benefit.

If Canelo implements the same fight plan as the first fight but without visibly gassing out, he'll win a legitimate UD.

If GGG has to chase him all night again then he'd better add some new tricks to his offense, and hit the arms and body consistently.

GGG can't give the exact same performance because it isn't going to get him the UD. He can draw some confidence that many thought he won the first fight, but coasting on that logic isn't going to serve him.
He still has to dig deeper and give a better performance if he wants to win this one.

Lopsided scorecards aside- it was still a razor close fight.

golovkin is doing what every fighter should and that is promote his upcoming fight and he's doing a damn good job of it! what is clenelo doing? acting pissy and being diva talking about not doing the faceoff and press conferences. clenelo is looking like a coward who's scared to face ggg! de la cokehead hoya needs to get his boy in line and properly promote this fight only ggg is doing so at the moment.

Well now,,,, what will BigAssRed do in the ring? We know GGG is coming for the KO but what will BIGASSRED DO?? That is the Question!!

Will he run like a cur? Like Mayweather did ? Will he cheat the fans again??

Or will he stand and fight!!! This fight has the opportunity to be a classic: the old gladiator against the young. The young should win because of age BUT will he try? Will he go for it? Does he really want it? What is in his heart? Or will he simply run and depend on wretched judges as he did in the first?

We shall see !

I agree with you that this will be a financial success. Definitely more than 1.3 mill the first did. But I don’t agree that they should put on an “act” of hate towards each other. That is neither fighters natural personality and would be foolish to attempt. I believe that the discontentment being shown currently is genuine and understandable from both sides. Where as both Mayweather and McGregor built their fanbases on talking that chit and not giving a fook. Besides neither of these two could ever sale like Mayweather, if he hadn’t got into boxing he would probably be flipping cars somewhere. No one can deny he has/had the gift of gab and could excite the public

Is there any promotor who is more full of shyt the ODLH??

[Shadoww702]

GGG is a pressure fighter and Canelo is a counter puncher. Canelo cant help but try to run and outbox him. nothing wrong in a UD win

He also egged GGG into rushing in at 1 point and GGG didnt. He was ready to uppercut GGG but GGG saw it at the last minute and backed off.

[anonymous2.0]

It would be nice if De la Hoya talked up his other fighters half as much as he does Canelo

[OnePunch]

ohh the irony of Oscar suggesting that someone else is talking too much.........
