Why did Golovkin "run" most of the fight?

    I thought they wanted Canelo to "fight".

    It's called boxing off the backfoot. Google Floyd Mayweather.

    According to GGG's camp Canelo was "running" in the first fight. So is it boxing off the backfoot or running?

    GGG's power has gone, looks like Canelo waited the right amount of time to fight GGG

    There is also the minor detail of landing more and better shots as well.

    OP with the small 3 incher doesn't know what running is. Running is going back to the ropes and circling the perimeter of the ring and not engaging. Golovkin was circling the center of the ring pumping out jab.

    Small pecker. Small brain.

    :lol:

    He was on the backfoot from 1-9. Why didn't he push Canelo forward or stand his ground?

    Canelo pushes him back sitting in the pocket.

    no, give some credit to Canelo. GGG was wiping guys out all the time. Canelo was smart and took the fight to GGG when other guys would have been knocked out.

    Golovkin is clearly shot. He showed every year of his 36 years.

    Sorry, 3". You're wrong.

    I thought in the 6th round it was clear who the 36 year old was.

    Dude the length of your nose is bigger than my pecker. That hurts bro. I wish I had a big nose to compensate for my little pecker.

    Correct, anyone who has watched boxing for some time could see it's over. GGG better retire
