    Actually no. He missed 30% of his punches, he continually pushed forward ineffectively,all while his opponent used better defense while still landing the harder cleaner punches.

    GGG was outboxed. When Golovkin won, he won it with pressure and scoring points with the jab, not by making Canelo miss and landing the better punches.

    Canelo's punches felt like little slaps on GGG. Nothing Canelo landed on GGG's face was delivered with any pain.

    A troll gotta troll.

    That's why GGG completely neglected the body and was reduced to jabbing, because he had very little respect for Canelo's power.

    I have no doubt a nice guy like GGG would never like a POS like you.

    Mayweather didn't impose his physicality on Canelo. 36 year olds don't go balls to the wall against high level fighters. They're too old for that they will get tired.

    No, he was very hesitant and weary of Canelo's power. Gave Canelo a lot of respect, and at the same time he only landed about 30% of his punches. When the other fighter makes you miss nearly 70% of your punches, you're not out boxing that opponent.

    Canelo was not prime. Look at him now & then he still had puppy fat! He was a kid then, he's a man now! All man in fact!
    Only time I enjoyed watching something more than a fully erect & evolved Canelo was my first viewing of broke back mountain!

    This. GGG is too slow to outbox Canelo. He just needs to use his jab and get Canelo on the ropes early, since Canelo is very limited fighting off the back foot. In the middle of the ring Canelo's upper body movement and hand speed was giving GGG a lot trouble.

    Just because he said that I'm thinking that is not his game plan. Perhaps. Maybe he just intends to throw less punches and commit more defensively. That loosely translates to "I'll box more." I don't think trying to tactically box with Canelo is very smart but hey, we'll see.

    From watching the video its quite clear that Sanchez knows that their best shot at winning the fight this time around is sucking Canelo into an all out brawl, because Canelo is and was clearly the better skilled fighter of the two.

    But if Canelo was running so much then why was Canelo using lateral movement right in front of him, and making GGG miss by inches? If Canelo was running why wasn't GGG able to capitalize when Canelo went to the ropes? Everybody knows this is a sport of skills, not luck. You want a street fight go watch felony fights, the sport of boxing isn't for you rookies.

    Yeah I got onto that.
    GGGs game was always about getting his opponents to trade away thinking they could knock him out so even conservative guys like Monroe fell for it but in Canelo and to some extent Jacobs he came across two guys who wouldn’t play ball which is why Abel Sanchez is moaning basically.
    Canelo might say he’s gonna have a tear up and you never know he’s felt the power and may feel he’s ok but it’ll probably be the same as the first fight as it’s the absolute best way of fighting him imo.
