Comments Thread For: Canelo Won't Fight in September, Return is Postponed

[TonyGe]

It's twice now big fights in Vegas were cancelled due to Canelo. First time due to a failed drug test. Second time because he had his feelings hurt. What's it going to be the next time. Someone took his parking spot?

I personally noticed during Wade and even more so against Brook. Hopkins even started noticing.

So youre basically saying it had nothing to do with his level of competition? Thats a matter of opinion. He has not been in any wars to be passed his prime at that age. If what you say is true then Canelo is damned if he does and damned if he doesn't. He does not fight him he is a duck but when he fights him and wins he beat up a pass his prime GGG. Thats exactly why he should ignore his @$$

If he fights in mid-December like last year, then he can fight the winner of Kovalev/Yarde. Still has pretty much the same options as he would if he would have fought in September.

Gets more time to heal his knee issues. May never be great, but fighting in December will be 7 months prior to his last fight...And really five months until he gets back to training.

You still pvssyed out from my debate of listing the punches landed with the time on the rounds like Pvssy-g did against Jermall Charlo & Boo Boo You poser.

you were the Puss who said they did a film study yet never posted the results. Lmaooooooo

Of course competition exasperates it, but as I said to the other guy, you don't have to be in wars to start breaking down. Think of all the amateur fights, camps, sparring, running, strength and conditioning, all the thousands upon thousands of punches thrown over 20+ years. It's natural for the body to start slowing down mid 30s, across multiple sports and life in general. He's been fighting a past prime GGG so what is it if he has another one? He still hasn't convincingly beat him, despite doing better in the 2nd fight. Canelo, I think is slowly breaking down too, as is evident by his knees.

So you think GGG won the second fight?

I'm actually fine with 7-5 either way or a draw. Golovkin let to many early rounds go but I think swept the last 4. He was landing some hard shots from the 8th round on that I think are being overlooked. Canelo put up a great fight, don't get me wrong. But to fight that good of a fight and still have the guy coming forward and actually seeming to get stronger plays on your mind a bit. All Golovkin has to do is throw more body shots and not give a **** what's coming back because he'll get countered anyway. I've said for years that guys can't take a sustained body attack from Golovkin. If he threw the body shots he used to, I do think they would break Saul down.

Lol. So your admitting that the only person capable of having a big fight in Vegas is Canelo? Why doesn’t Lovkin fight on that date in Vegas?

[Truth Serum]

And your cool with that??? This idiot admits he prefers Rolls and Vanes for GGG fights. I bet your SUPER excited about GGG vs. 154lb Munguia.

Stop using the "GGG is only chasing Canelo for a payday" excuse... you sound dumb af while DAZN is laughing at you!

He abandoned the body attack since the first fight. He realize real quick that it’s a whole different ball game when your fighting elite competition. I doubt he’ll go back to that attack. He’s too concerned with getting countered. He rather be safe and box than fight
