    Not exceptions at all. Just real facts that Massive Favorites were upset in the Boxing ring. You think Canelo cant beat GGG, that's fine but History say's Canelo Can, and i Believe he will.. Because guess what? Nobody is unbeatable! My Post about Tyson-Douglas is proof, my good man. And Tyson was more feared than GGG is.

    Canelo's defense and boxing instincts are on another level. His upper body movement and excellent vision allow him to slip punches much better than Golovkin. Both seem to have iron chins but chances are one will crack eventually if they're getting hit easy by a top fighter.

    Okay :lol: What I'm saying is when I watch GGG's and Canelo's fights and play the possible fight in my head, I can't see any possible way for Canelo to win, style-wise. Of course, any outcome is possible when two men steps in the ring.

    Whilst I think GGG wins comfortably, you're right that Canelo can win. Anyone can win any fight. And that's why boxing is the best sport in the world.

    I think you are underrating GGG bub. He'll push Canelo into defensive mode. We haven't seen Canelo have to fight to survive, he's not elusive, movement is not his friend. He'll have to fight GGG off of him. The bodywork will sap that already questionable stamina, slowing Canelo down even more. I don't see Canelo making it out of the late rounds.

    I really respect Canelo as a fighter but anyone who think his a chance against ggg is clutching at straws imo

    Canelo is a hell of an impressive fighter, slick, experienced, great defense. DLH should stop fooling with his metabolism and let him fight at 160. Hopefully that puts something on his punches. The fact is though, the guy doesn't seem to be able to break an egg. That's big in boxing when you don't have the legs to get away either.

    He's on GGG's level as a fighter, but he hit blown up welterewights like Cotto and Mayweather with his best shots and they didn't budge. GGG will get hit plenty but like Michael Moorer said about one of his LHW challengers; "he's got 22s I've got magnums."

    GGG won't stop throwing bombs with nothing hard coming back at him. I give Jacobs a better chance against Golovkin, he's a banger and has skills. Underrated. I think Saunders with his style will give Golovkin pure hell.

    Too slow on his fwet
    Not enough stamina for 12 rounds at the pace ggg brings
    Doesn't hit hard enough to push ggg back or stop him

    Some fans seem to be clinging onto this idea that Canelo is a master boxer who can dodge punches and still be effective this isn't the case, he doesn't have much of a chance at all

    Thats fair. The thing is GGG has never seen that Offensive firepower coming at him. Lemieux can not prepare GGG for that, Thats a whole nother level! Canelo is the real deal.

    Maybe i'm underrating GGG, but then maybe you're overrating him. I'm used to watching great Fighters earn their stripes, not seeing fighters with these manufactured reputations because their fanbase thinks they're so great without being truly tested, being hyped with Cred they haven't earned yet.. :deal

    Canelo slick? What is your definition of slick? Canelo does not have the speed of foot to be considered slick. He has problems with movers. His power was enough to stop some rugged fighters and to put Kirkland to sleep, which, despite him being down s bunch, hadsn't happened to my knowledge. Even against Ishida, he kept getting up and was getting up again when the ref halted it.

    Point is, I think his power is fine and he has good snap on his shots.
