Comments Thread For: Golovkin Wants to 'Punish' Canelo 'For Bad Things He Has Done'

[Boxing 956]

what I think is likely.....

they cannot teach Golovkin to deal with the skills, movement, intelligence, of Canelo..... so they will play to their strengths

they will focus on keeping Canelo on the back foot with the jab, which is the only thing that worked the first time around.....

problem is, I think Canelo will deal with that more effectively.....

meaning that Golovkin will not focus on the body or take any risks whatsoever..... meaning that he will likely dig himself into the same rut as last time..... following Canelo around, pushing out that jab, but getting touched up in the process

Canelo UD 116-112

Great another Adelaid Byrd. Are U that ****** to think that only Canelo can change but not GGG. Its ur love for canelo that doesn't let ur pathetic little mind think that GGG can change his approach to this fight. What u wrote on this post is just ur desire based on ur unending love for Canelo. That or ******ity either one makes sense.

no, I don't

I do not think that Plodkin can change very much at all

you need to understand that he did not " adapt " to Canelo..... he was limited by, Canelo..... limited to a jab

which is not the same thing

Jabkin will be exactly the same

Both will be the same, i except a similar fight. The only way i see it being different is if GGG comes out hard from the opening bell.

Neither can adapt much in style. Canelo basically ran out of necessity and tried to steal a win because he didn't dare be anywhere near GGG and GGG didn't do much when he had a chance to.

They are what they are, they never change much. I had GGG winning, but i wouldn't say either put on a good performance at all.

stylistically i don't see how it can be much different. Canelo still won't be foolish enough to go anywhere near GGG, and i'm not sure the ageing GGG can do a whole lot more than he did, the body doesn't allow it.

He won the first fight 90% of real boxers and analysts saw it. If he just changes just a little it will be a clearer win for GGG. Honestly whats canelo gonna change? If he trades more he will have to spend more time in front of GGG and even u know he doesn't want to do that. If he moves more he will get tired sooner. So what's he gonna change.

War Golovkin, break Clenelo legs!

I disagree completely

I heard the same thing about Ward heading into the Kova rematch

Canelo is a skilled thinking fighter who shows more to his game every single fight

don't know how you can say that about him actually

he will be more effective, mark my words..... they will have more options, and a more-tailored gameplan

I don't think you have a CLUE

you will likely be using words like surprised/shocked after the fight

It's hard to see how Canelo shows more every fight, what fights were they? against the punching bag Chavez? Khan that was chinny at lightweight? domestic level Liam smith?

The fact is that GGG was the first top level opponent Canelo faced in a long time and had to rely on a gift to get a draw.

It's easy to show things against guys you're levels above. Canelo never shown much against top opponents, and same goes for GGG. Andre Ward on the other hand had already shown he could comfortably beat top fighters in the past.

If you don't believe me, just ask Canelo's promoter BHop. He commentated GGG's fight with Kell Brook and said all the way back then that GGG looks old, said his punches "had no snap on them" and it looked like he was pushing his punches.

Yes--I think we can all agree that Gennady certainly isn't a hard puncher anymore:

No idea why Brook's corner stopped the fight; it wasn't like Kell was getting hurt by GGG's pitty-pat punches:
