    Was VADA Testing TOO Harsh for Golovkin In the rematch?

    Lampley in the 8th round said:

    ''Gennady doesn't have the power he once had...''

    or

    ''He never fought someone with a chin like Canelo...''

    did his power diminish since Jacobs?

    when Golovkin fought Canelo the first time, much criticism came that Gennady looked slow with his jabs. looking into the rematch, many of Golovkin's shots looked weak. maybe Canelo's ring IQ didn't allow Golovkin to set up those power shots shown against previous opponents.

    Victor Conte had said that fighters werent being tested consistently through VADAs CBP, referring to Golovkin who was always top 15 WBC - and the Champion. Why would Conte challenge VADA and HBO star fighters and have Ring Magazine publish such statements? Was it GBP also playing mind games and practices against their competitors?

    120 Days VADA testing was done for GGG Canelo 2. That's the longest both have ever tested for a fight. Does anyone recall a high profile bout starting 120 Days out?

    Will the CHarlos and Spence fall the same fate if fighting Canelo?

    He's getting old and Canelo has a great chin. Nothing sinister about it in my book.

      In addition, looks to me like Alvarez has gone to the Mayweather school of defense. Bumlovkin has never been a one-punch KO guy and Alvarez did a good job rolling with the few Bumlovkin punches that did land flush. It also seemed to me as if the Triple L wasn't fully committing to his punches for fear of being countered..

        The testing and upped level of competition is about as valid as the age excuse for why GGG looked less than stellar. The GGG bumboys don't like hearing that though. He only looked bad because of age doe. The 1st fight it was because Canelo ran doe.

          wtf would the testing have to do with it? are you implying G is dirty? or that they drained all of his blood?

          both are ******.

            Golovkin has been random testing year round for several years it is only new territory for Canelo.

            That Charlos also test but Spence does not.
