    GGG is a come forward with no head movement and Canelo is a natural counter puncher with good power speed and defensive, You do the math!

    good analysis

    also, just wanted to point that, while obvious to us UK fight fans, might not be so for others: the "Hatton" in your post above is Matthew Hatton, not Ricky Hatton. They are brothers actually. Ricky was the more accomplished fighter.

    or both

    why bother watching GGG's fights? Far easier to just scan these threads and learn all you need to write your own posts

    Lol what did you expect,don't listen to the trolls go check him out,he keeps his chin tucked in and he does have head movement and rarely gets caught when he's in this is baaxing mode.
    There is another point to this you know and that it would be some achievement to go twelve rounds without getting hit you know?

    Well, during his last fight and in some previous ones Triple G's defense hasn't prevented punches from getting through repeatedly so there is no reason to suppose that Canelo will fail in connecting where others have succeeded. One explanation that Triple G gave was that he wants to entertain the fans by permitting himself to get hit.

    Decent beard... Decent combos with speed.. And a sneaky uppercut he throws sometimes.. Tough mentality.. Even if a lot of crap is said about Canelo I think hes not afraid of anyone and shows a lot of heart in the ring.. Now that being said I hope GGG lets him looking at the lights! :boxing1:ggg

    ^^^Yes, this is his best chance. If GGG wins 7-5 on most cards, the three scoring it officially for the match will see it for Canelo.

    He's the "A side" aka the corrupt judges and hype machine will kick in to save the ppv cash cow.
    Canelo has excellent upper body movement but slow footwork and can't deal with lateral movement:
    he was getting schooled by Khan.. a blown up light weight with no chin until he knocked him out. GGG
    will cut off the ring and will go to work if Canelo goes to the ropes. Canelo's punching power is very overrated;
    knocking out a B- level Kirkland and Khan prove nothing. Everyone talks about GGG's weak resume but who wanted to fight him in his prime? Martinez wanted to deal with GGG about as much as anyone wants to deal with
    Charlo right now. Canelo has been handled very well by Oscar and gotten the benefit of the doubt decision wise in a few fights...Lara comes to mind. Golden Boy realizes Canelo could easily lose to Jacobs, Charlo or Lemieux and wants the big payday.
