    I agree,GGG hurt him in the 2nd fight and if he landed any of the fallow up shots Canelo would have been down. Credit to Canelo who instinctively responded like the Matrix to prevent the fallow up shots from happening. GGG has the power and skill, and mindset to do it, hopefully it happens in September. Something like Hearns vs Leonard 2 would be nice.

    Even if he did, at this point it would be ruled a slip due to a poorly installed canvas.

    The vinyl would be removed and the fight forfeited due to inadequate installation.

    And we go to the scorecards, 118-110 Canelo.

    If he fought Usyk he'd probably be knocked down.

    Even granite chinned warriors get stopped by accumulation of punishment. Or, you know, a body shot should it land clean.

    Fair enough but Beterbiev hits harder than GGG.

    GGG is one of the best finishers ever at 160.

    Beterbiev is bigger than GGG and has knocked out bigger fighters.

    Canelo does have a proven granite chin but his punch resistance might go down in the future if he keeps relying on it.
