    Abel Sanchez says Canelo beats Kovalev compares him to GGG

    Says he trained both GGG & Kovalev and Kovalev cant punch like GGG and is no where near the puncher that GGG is. Also says GGG is the better boxer. Says even though GGG was able to control the last fight with the jab he doesn't think Kov can do that because he thinks GGG is a lot trickier and smarter and has the better jab. Says Kov maybe longer but is slower.

        I feel like there's a few Kov fans who think he's win, but most of the Kovalev support seems to be from Canelo fans who want to give their guy extra credit.

            I think all Abel said is that Kovalev's jab is longer but slower. Not sure he said in general. GGG's jab is still fast. Not as fast as it was, but still one of the fastest in the game. For some reason his other punches have slowed down a lot.

              Kovalev used to have one of the sharpest, hardest jabs in the game. This is the major thing that changed about him and I've been saying it for the last year or so. It has slowed, and long with that, some of the power has gone.

                Good find...I more or less agree...but I am skeptical that GGG punches harder than a big punching LHW...I guess we will find out when Canelo and Kov face off.

                  Early in the Jacobs fight, Canelo was slipping Danny's jab and countering. Jacob's reach is about the same as Kovalev's. So I wouldn't be surprised if he can do the same with Sergey.

                    GGG a better fighter and harder puncher than Kovalev. Some Canelo fans do not want to hear that.
