Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: All GGG Does Is Come Forward; Canelo More Skillful

[Marvlus Marv]

Oh god. We've still got over 2 months of this yawn-talk to go. I dunno if I can take much more. If the bad blood is real then surely Oscar can engineer a scuffle at the next presser just to perk things up a bit.

You do know wikipedia and the like are edited and full of wrong information...right ? ive actually heard his real Am record was actually 5 wins 345 losses...this guy is the most manufactured 'star' ive EVER seen!

What is this?... Now I know you're trolling in respect of your comments about his amateur record lol! Abysmal amateur but a future HOF middleweight champion, sounds about right.

ggg is an effing bum. hes so slow you can time him with a calendar.

Very true statement by Oscar. All ggg did was come forward. He didn't even throw body punches and wouldn't or couldn't cut off the ring. Canelo controlled the pace of the fight. Canelo made ggg miss all night and had him punching the wind. Canelo landed the cleaner shots and Canelo landed the higher punch percentage and higher body punches.

You can try to sell that to some people, but real boxing fans know thats not true...GGG controlled the pace, not clenalo...thats why he was so gassed out, if Clenalo could have fought at a slower pcae and pot-shotted...he would have....

margarito wins....


all he does is come forward why didn't you fight him? you are more skillfull.

[steeve steel]

Better state of mind, yes, but better state of body? Hmmmm... no. Bye bye Mista Clen.

that's a fair comment. Golovkin landed more punches over all in the fight and in 10 of the 12 rounds. He also was the aggressor and had Canelo on the ropes or backing up for the majority of the fight. A jab whether people like it or not is a scoring punch. Ever hear of a guy named Larry Holmes? He's won plenty of fights primarily on his jab. Golovkin landed power punches also it wasn't just the jab. His jab backed up Canelo and put him on the ropes. To me and most people that shows the jab had an effect on Canelo. On the other hand Canelo best punches usually did not halt Golovkin's forward progress or force him to change his game plan. How many times did you see Canelo cut off the ring on Golovkin because he was going back. Never. How often did you see Golovkin trapped on the ropes? Golovkin is being demoted when he may or may not have cut off the ring while Canelo gets credit for never putting Golovin in the position of backpedaling. Come on its ridiculous.

Let's face it, Canelo fought off the back foot most of the night.....same will happen in September, except GGG will be more aggressive and also beat him on the body...

Saunders made Lemuix wiff a lot also. Did you score the fight for Lemuix since he missed so badly but still kept coming forward???

No ******, because like you I score whiffs.
