Not clever enough. Trying to impose his speed too much instead of reading Golovkin and finding the openings. Some sharp throwaways to create openings and a consistent jab could help him out but Golovkin is longer and knows how to counter the jab and 8've never seen Canelo use punches that cleverly, he's got big feints and big shots/combos and that's about it.
Honestly dont see how Canelo can beat Golovkin outside of robbery or Golovkin being past it. He should hope that Golovkin comes in pressuring dumb like he likes to do later in fights to give "drama show" where he can onload on his guard/forehead and nab rounds (to be fair people were giving rounds where Golovkin was outboxing Canelo to ginger so). In summary, this is Golovkins to win or lose.Last edited by SplitSecond; 06-19-2018, 03:50 PM.

It's actually a good reason to believe he would use PEDs.
If PEDS helped him to keep fairly bulky and enhance his stamina and that is the best he could perform, well then he probably is in a lot of trouble this time around. If they really didn't help much we got another tight fight. Now maybe Canelo can slim down a bit and improve his boxing/movement but can he then absorb the blows better?
The PED controversy made this fight more interesting IMO.

I'll expect the same thing in the rematch. An OK fight, but not exactly breathtaking.

Originally posted by Real King Kong View PostWell on the positive side, both guys know they need to do more this time.
I made a thread last week asking, what CAN golovkin do differently this time to win? (Because I noticed a number of posters saying GGG was going to be all angry and stuff, and win this time, etc.)
What emerged is that most people think their guy (Canelo or Golovkin) "gave away" the early rounds.
Possibly both camps will be less keen to be cautious this time and try to push the fight earlier.
I'm not betting on it.
