I'm Mexican and yes its an EMBARRASSMENT. Its sad that canelo as a Mexican and comes from a Mexican gym doesnt fight like a true Mexican should.

Hel.l yeah! Tell those bums!!! Skills pay them bills, there is levels to this and ggg level just doesnt compare to canelo plain and simple.

Abel Sanchez has ruined most of their promising careers by not showing to adapt to different styles! He is a hard headed old fool who got very lucky with Golovkin who is a fighter so beloved by casual fans that he’s protected win lose or draw!

"casual fans"... bwahaha!

Yeah .. Abel ruins promising careers by training fighters to become world champions.

Maybe he should get into the beef business, like the Reynosos.

Anyone that says GGG doesn’t have a version of the style of some past Mexican fighters, including Canelos team, doesn’t know the history of Mexican Style fighters. Guys like Chavez Sr, Ricardo Lopez, Eric Morales, and Marco Antonio Barrera all had a direct style of being the aggressor and pressuring the opponent. It’s a style that “pursues" the opponent around the ring, throwing powerful punches, while absorbing some to the chin. Generally there's inside fighting, a lot of bodypunching, an attempt to take the heart from the opponent. It has a little bob and weave head movement involved to get inside. The general idea behind the Mexican style is to keep a more square stance and throw a lot of lead right hands. So the past Great Mexican fighters had more of an entertaining, aggressive style of fighting. It’s a style meant to please the crowd that wants a war between boxers.

The American style is more what Canelo fought in the first fight. It’s a style that resembles more of what Mayweather Jr. or Sugar Ray Leonard looked like in the ring. Their style is a lot more slick and tactical and focussing on not getting hit and then hitting. And they become aggressive when an opponent gets hurt. It’s a lot of sharp counter punching.

To be fair, GGG really made up that term to win over Mexican fight fans but his style does resemble the style of past Mexican fighters more so than Canelos did in the 1st fight. Canelo resembled more of Mayweather than Chavez Sr in the 1st fight. That’s what GGG’s team is trying to say.

Canelo may know what the Mexican style of boxing is supposed to look like but he didn’t show it with Golovkin. Clearly he was trying to make it through the rounds to finish the fight. I suspect Canelo’s body transformation this time will allow him to skate away a bit easier. Stick and move will be the plan.
