Comments Thread For: De La Hoya Not Ruling Out Canelo vs. Golovkin Trilogy

[TonyGe]

The second fight was not a robbery. I thought GGG won, but you have to admit that Ginger did a lot better in the second fight. GGG has no one to blame because he backed up too much.

Read up on how to beat a pressure fighter which is the style that Canelo somewhat took on in the rematch.
#1. Use your jab.
#2 Step back. Don't run but step back when needed.
#3. Circle your opponent.
#4. Don't go to the ropes.
#4b. Don't abandon the center of the ring.
Those are the 4 things that Golovkin did right
#5 Work the body.
That was his major blunder. No body work. No attempt at body work. Even when late in the fight Canelo was losing power on his punches, and could to be hurt to the body. Incredible...The judges watched a guy school his opponent and didn't know what the hell was really happening.

Don't blame Golovkin for so called backing up blame him for neglecting his body attack.

I can’t think of (1) fight for either Canelo or GGG that will pay them both more versus fighting each other a 3rd time. At the end of the day, it’s about making the most money for your family and increasing your overall net worth in your profession. As fighters, you have to look out for yourself and your family, your taking all the punishment in the ring. And most fans will buy into a 3rd fight just like they did with the 3rd fight with Manny & Marquez. And they bought into a 4th fight too when Manny was put to sleep by Marquez.

No need for the 3rd fight. GGG has already beaten Canelo twice. He will get robbed again.

Clearly you are blind and are not to wise on true boxing as Canelo lost neither fight.

It seems to me like Oscar is willing to circumvent the WBC if need be, in order to ensure a Canelo/GGG trilogy. Outside of the heavyweight division, it is the biggest grossing box office fight to be made in the sport of boxing. Oscar is going to look after his own interest. A Canelo vs a Charlo fight would make a hell of a lot less money than a Canelo vs GGG fight to be exact.

GGG needs 2 knockdowns minimum for a win and he’s obviously not doing that. He knew what he signed up for last fight and what he had to do to win and didn’t deliver. If he signs a 3rd fight he’s in it purely for money.

I like GGG but it’s his own greed that got him to this spot. Before the first fight when ODLH told him if you fight in June(BJS fight in Kazakhstan) then there will be no Canelo bout in September. He should of just took his belts and moved on, it’s not like Canelo had the WBC strap. He could of went back to making $2-3mil a bout and taking his AirJordan endorsement and still live comfortably. It’s not like he getting’s $100k a match. Chocolatito’s taking a beating for $135k per bout.

What you don't recognize or acknowledge is that Ginger was digging to the body. That's what made GGG backup.

I agree with your points, very astute. But if you to choose to circle and jab, then you have to get your opponent in a vulnerable position and take advantage of it and hurt him. GGG didn't do it. He never forced his will by coming forward and applying constant pressure and backing up Cman.. When he changed his style it "appeared" Canelo was forcing his will.

Depends on your own likes and dislikes. If you favor pressure, you see it one way, if you favor boxing skills and movement, you see it another way.

Most of us, saw GGG wining 7-5 and even 8-4. I thought he outboxed C but,a at the same time, he backed up too much.

It's like Floyd Money, he circled and jabbed, but never got hit and schooled Canelo. GGG took way too many punches, his face was a mess.

2 knockdowns??? You do know in 24 rounds he couldn't even get 1??? Might want to try and actually throw some combos and body punches before you worry about a KD

GGG has the DUMBEST fans....
