Prime Mike McCallum beats Canelo or GGG like a drum

What was that mate ?

 

I think Golovkin's footwork has slowed down naturally has he's aged. I think with Canelo it's always been his main weakness. He's improved on it and moves more swiftly in the pocket now, though.

That's why a lot of fans on here think Saunders can capitalize on his slow feet with jabs and his faster legs. I think Canelo has way too much variety for Saunders personally.

You often hear Saunders poke fun at Canelo's footwork. He's said it at Canelo's press conference with GGG and in many interviews.

At this point in Golovkin and Canelo's careers i feel that's their Achilles heels. I think they're both top elite boxers taking nothing away from them. I do believe that's their main flaw, though.

If you can only mention a couple of names who would beat them in history then they must be doing something right.

 

GGG could cut the ring off excellently years ago, he follows more now, all speed related. Like with Canelo at times, years ago he would've relished the position he had a fighter in like he had Canelo, but he knows he throws certain shots and he's getting countered if he's not on point, so he's more cautious than he was, especially the left hook to the body. Oscar saved Canelo from a legit loss by binning the belt and just waiting a little longer till they had confirmation he was missing a step, slowed that bit whilst he still looked good to some

 

Oscar ****ed up Canelos rep, he'd have more losses but the fighter is the goods, like old school, started his pro career a boy and has honed his craft through hard work, pumped up stupid with Peds agreed but they all are at it

 

Nice fansty dream, But in reality McCallum is what? 63 years old? Canelo and GGG would put him in a retirement home.

 

Canelo does have a history of picking on old men.

 

You of all people should know almost all great fighters have done that, not just Canelo.

 

I do know that, I'm just pulling your leg. Actually, McCallum's break out win was an aging Ayub Kalule.

 

You’re entitled to your opinion like anybody else.

I think Mike had superior skills and he beat better fighters where he encountered just about every style possible.

Both Canelo and GG have also had hard fights with guys who weren’t on Mike’s level.

 

And drunks

 

I actually think Saunders on form is an extremely hard fighter to beat when he's up against it, his movement is on its own at middle

 

McCallum's peak years were at Light Middle whereas Golovkin and Alvarez are natural Middleweights with Middleweight power and punch resistance.
I can't see Mike beating either one but he would give then both a great fight.

 

Mike McCallum was the best body puncher in the world. He would work at the body of GGG and Canelo and tear them apart. My dream match is not McCallum vs GGG or Canelo, but it's McCallum vs Hagler at 160.

 

You could be right. We never saw the best of the Body Snatcher, as they never made the really great fights in his physical prime. He was good enough, though. Gave Toney hell.

 

Both GGG and Clenelo take out McCallum at MW.
Too strong for him at 160.
