Ggg was ass first half of both fights infact the first fight I gave canelo the first 3 rounds offtop and I had him winning the 12th both fights but in between those rounds he was getting worked, and same thing with the Jacobs fight canelo starts strong and fades then comes back in the last round

if you listen to Canelo fans without having ever seen the fight, you'd believe that Canelo treated ggg like Calzaghe did vs lacy and that ggg was rushed to intensive care after the fight from a frightful beating. Meanwhile the reality is that Canelo eeked out a split decision in a fight where he was out landed and only 2 of 50 press row scorecards gave him the win.Comment

I said worse for wear....it's an expression.....not worse than GGG, even though he did look worse than GGG in the first fight.

very well said. green k.Body work woulda won G the fight. G was straight head hunting way too much & Nelo already showed he has a A+ chin. Canelo already gasses on his own if there was ever a way to stop him it would be to the body. G was taking tons of hard shots to the body but never seemed to slow down but he was definitely feeling them more than the head shots.
People will say "he don't wanna go to the body cuz he's worried about getting countered" it's non sense. Nelos gonna counter him regardless and he's been doing in both fights so f-ck it that body work will pay off more than those head shots
i said the same thing after both fights; he has to go the body to stop canelo and get the rightful decision this time around.Comment

Precisely! It's crazy. I thought Canelo lost 8-4 and 7-5. I think even a draw in fight two wouldn't have been justified. Canelo didn't prove to be better than GGG at almost ten years younger. Can you imagine what GGG at 28 would have done to Canelo? It would have been a massacre.if you listen to Canelo fans without having ever seen the fight, you'd believe that Canelo treated ggg like Calzaghe did vs lacy and that ggg was rushed to intensive care after the fight from a frightful beating.

That ****** hole (worst ever in the history of boxing) over Canelo's eye was handcrafted by the most powerful hands in boxing. It took a team of gynecologists to prevent the smelly discharge from seaping into the club that night... and still gave his ****** gf, the DJ, and the taco vendor an STD.Comment

Who is this? Oscar? You can't read one article about Canelo without it mentioning how GGG was robbed twice.
MOST FANS AND EXPERTS HAD GGG WINNING!Comment

Didn’t see much difference. Look like ggg stop caring about being “loose” and went with old self and got KO. But overall I like j banks as trainerComment

I think Abels 3G stops rolls in 1 without catching those big shots which if it were canelo, could have been lights out... i dont think i’ve ever seen 3G look as bad as he did last fight. Canelo isnt perfect but he learned alot about rhythm from his floyd fight (and subsequent fights). Since canelos fight with mosley canelo has been number 1 if not top 5 in plus minus hit ratios... i think nelo may stop this banks version of 3G. Hopefully i get to see another outing before he’s in with nelo.Comment

I doubt anyone has changed their minds about who they think won the fights. There were only a few clear rounds, and a hell of a lot of close ones, and I think its the right conclusion that neither proved themselves to be the better boxer overall (although I gave the edge to G over the full 24 rounds).Precisely! It's crazy. I thought Canelo lost 8-4 and 7-5. I think even a draw in fight two wouldn't have been justified. Canelo didn't prove to be better than GGG at almost ten years younger. Can you imagine what GGG at 28 would have done to Canelo? It would have been a massacre.
G kept too much distance over the 24 rounds to be able to launch an effective body attack, no doubt wary of Canelo's counters when up close. If G closed the gap and went to the body he's going to have to take a lot of return fire that he he was shy of in the first two fights - and he's likely to have to take a couple of solid hits to land each one of his own. If Canelo held his ground it could be a short and brutal fight, and G's chin would have to live up to its reputation. I think in a shoot-out youth would win out, G having lost some of his timing with age - can imagine him taking too many shots.
Canelo's chin would also have to hold up though.Comment
