    Ive seen GGG take too many shots in too many of his fights to say he has good defense.. His defense damn near doesnt exist.

    I think he has decent defence, but at the top level I really can't say that it's 'good'. He did well defensively against Jacobs in fairness, lots of parrying and rolling. He'll leave himself in an open position if he thinks it means he can return fire - which is fine - but we can't credit that with being defensively good.

    I'd give defense to Canelo. Khan is really fast and Smith isn't bad either. Although, that said, Golovkin was actually pretty good against Jacobs. The guy that thinks Canelo is better on the inside is going to get a surprise. Golovkin has hospitalised dudes on the inside.

    Canelo is the superior boxer. His only challenge here is he tends to lag in activity during rounds to conserve energy, this can be his undoing in this matchup.

    uhhh.... you know if Mayweather actually fought GGG then nah dude. That's not going to good for Mayweather. Just one partially landed shot will shake Floyd's body to his core.
