        Good catch bro I didn’t realize I contradicted myself. But in reality Canelo has given the fans way more, ggg just came here to exploit an easy situation.

          Shadow here we go again. I don't need Compubox to tell me that Golovkin outscored Canelo in both fights . You scored the first fight for Golovkin and so did I. In fact our scores only differed by one round.

            Canelo adjusted in the rematch, which is why he gave Golovkin more trouble.

            Canelo is a better body puncher. Golovkin has become a headhunter in his recent fights.

            Canelo is a better counter-puncher.

            Canelo has better head movement. Look at Golovkin's face in the rematch.
            Nelo did lose both fights but is the better fighter as he has better resume. Same reason why Pac is greater than floyd.
            It's the reason I don't rate floyd. He never gave biggest rivals rematch to do what nel o did to gg g in rematch. What Pac did to morales and Bradley in rematch.


            Floyd is good for first 12 rounds, but he hasn't given enough evidence to show if his peers have another training training to rectify mistakes in first fight how Floyd would do.It's one thing doing it against lower tier names like Castillo and maidana. But how would you fair against biggest rivals in rematch?. Lots of unanswered questions with floyd. Floyd fans think winning first fight convincing according to judges ends all debates, how naive they are?

              You mean like Koby vs Steve Nash. Nash was a member of the 40 50 90 club four times in his career. Nobody has ever done that before or since. Even a player as great as Larry Byrd has only done it twice. He has the highest free throw percentage in history. He was a low volume high percentage shooter. So are you saying Nash is a better basketball player overall than Kobe and Byrd.

                He is IMO. Shame about the clenbuterol and holding the fight up with 3G things.

                  boxing individual sport



                  in boxing, it's called outworking the opponent to win. higher workrate + higher landed punches = win

                    Golovkin is def one of Canelos better opponents, likely in Canelos top five.

                      Exactly right. Some of these clowns think that landing 50% of 50 shots (25 for the math-challenged) should count more than the fighter who lands 30% of 100 (30). Greater number of punches means more aggression and should be rewarded accordingly.
