    Cock draining Gayweather walked no one down.


    He ran, pitter patted and sparred his way to a win.

      Yet it was still Canelo that ended up on the ropes at one point. Walking down somebody usually implies you put them where you want. Canelo came forward but he didn't corner him or make him fight off the ropes. Golovkin was free to keep circling him in the middle of the ring which was completely different than what Canelo did in the first fight. The overwhelming majority of the fight took place around the center of the ring so I'm confused when this walking down occurred.

            Of course GGG took a different approach in fight 2, if he cant get a win that way, he fought a different style and boxed more.

            Lets not forget that GGG is 36 years old, an age where Canelo himself wants to be long retired, Canelo himself dropped his belt because he knew GGG would obliterate him.
            How did he beat him up when Gee was on the receiving end of the majority of the notable power punches of the fight?

            He got outlanded in power punches as well

            You geetards are a special bunch

                Canelo is bad man!
                I agree that Canelo looked good, otherwise he wouldn't have hit GGG even as much as he did.

                It's just that GGG still did more. In both fights.

                  They’re both good fighters, and that’s why...

                    Give boxers benefit of the doubt to move around like the good ole days!

                    GGG Canelo 1, Moretti had it close..

                    And that’s all she scored!
                    Walking a fighter down involves pushing the other fighter back by coming constantly forward and moving them out of the center of the ring preferably to the ropes where you have an advantage. Moving forward and having the other guy side step you or step back periodically, never abandoning the ring center is not walking him down. Problem with you guys is you don't have a clue what your talking about. Walking a guy down is what Golovkin did in the first fight where Canelo completely left the center of the ring to go to the ropes.

                      I didn't see your post prior to this and I just posted pretty much what you said. The problem is these guys simply don't know what they are talking about.
