    :patsch ok, GGG is going to KO Canelo in one round. :roll::roll::roll:

    Fact is GGG has NEVER been in the ring with a fighter as complete as Canelo. Fact is.

    If Willy Monroe, Curtis Stevens, Daniel Geale were able to land leather on Golovkin, Canelo who is greatly superior to those guys surely will.

    Don't act like GGG is this flawless fighter who can't get hit :lol:, because if you're honest with yourself, GGG has a lot of holes in his defense. Watch thoose fight, you can see Monroe teeing off on GGG as GGG comes forward a few times.

    The thing is. Almost nobody thinks Canelo stands a chance against the best 160 pounder in the world.

    It sounds like I'm saying it won't be competitive. That's because me and basically everybody else is giving Canelo no shot.

    Your comment is a bit off topic and irrelevant, and it also doesn't make sense.

    Who is everyone?

    Last time I checked GGG was this monster beating fighters like Daniel Geale :shock:, who later got KTFO in easier fashion by Cotto :roll:, who was outboxed and outgunned by Canelo afterwards.

    Anyone not giving Canelo a chance is an idiot, period.

    The one man who knows both of them in the ring says Canelo will win.

    Canelo plays checkers. Golovkin prefers to play chess!

    Timing balance footwork power major edge to Ggg defense

    Not better defense, don't be fooled by Golovkin's lack of respect for his opponents. Head movement, sure. Not waist movement.

    I'll bet when Canelo gets in there with GGG, he will learn the art of fighting off his back foot rather quickly.:yep

    I'm going based on what he's shown us, and I see him leaving himself open when he throws and when he's coming forward.

    You're right about him not respecting his opponents, they are 2nd and 3rd tier fighters if not worse. He better shows us his "hidden" defense against an A level fighter like Saul.

    I think he showed really good defense against Lemieux. Lemieux isn't some A-lister but the defense was on point.

    If GGG was able to take good shots from Stevens and Lemieux, then he will take Canelo's and return the favor multiplied by two. Canelo is going to sleep.

    He looked really good against Lemieux. I would say his success came through the use of his well timed jab.

    Lemieux is very one dimensional, he comes in bouncing in a straight line and will throw hooks. GGG did great at timing him with the jab not allowing DL to get his offense reallyb going.

    A case where offense becomes defense.

    Are you seriously suggesting Canelo is on the same level as Stevens and Lemieux? They may or may not have more power than Canelo but that is only part of landing successful and effective punch.

    The gap in skill level between DL, CS and Canelo is wide. Canelo has a brutal body attack and is dedicated to it, which creates opening on top, and Canelo has some of the best feinting skills in boxing today.

    Canelo also counters extremely.
