Canelo Cant take a Big Shot

just watch the fight against cotto's brother with one shot and he was almost out on his feet, and jose miguel cotto isn't a world beater, and I'm mexican and think Canelo is golden boy's chavez jr, another paper champion

 

Give him time. Some adjust and some don't.
But yeah, he cant take a good one.
He has a habit of retaliating with his chin up high. A veteran with a punch could use that. Go soft on him for half the fight and then boom.
Micky Ward did that against Neary or someone.

 

He was hurt by Cintron, but Cintron was hurt too. So He could not follow up.

 

canelo vs angulo or chavez jr next.

 

Kind of presumptious to claim Canelo can't take a shot. He's been matched carefully so far, but everyone has hit him without any negative results so far.
He's so young and still developing , so of course we'll not know how he reacts when hit with a big shot from an elite fighter until it happens.
It figured that Cintron would have tested his whiskers a bit , but seemed not quite himself and Kermit never got a really good shot off.
If Canelo were to ever face Kirkland, his ability to take a shot would determine if he wins or not. If he is indeed glass jawed , he'll be exposed soon enough.

 

He's 21 for **** sake, he can have all the cherry picked opponents he wants as far as I'm concerned, he's years ahead of where a 21 year old should be.

Nothing wrong with his resume so far.

I think his chin is fine

 

He has only been rocked by Cotto when he was caught cold and came through that fine enough, I think his chin is grand and he will be the next Mexican great.

 

So the question remains...

CANelo

or

CAN'TNELO

 

hmmm - interesting observation mr LA IRISHMAN? Not something I'd expect a casual fan of the sport to notice! lol not too many Irish in LA either especially those interested in boxing. Are you able to speak spanish by any chance lol:yep

 

I don't think Canelo has a great chin, but he's not glass either. People are just desperate to find some reason to drag him down.

 

Hes young and his chin doesnt seem to be a problem. His biggest problem is defense. He also tends to do deploy the same stategy over and over, he needs to change it up more. Otherwise I think hell be just fine

 

Against Cotto, it was his first big stage, he was still cold and he was struggling to make 147.. That should be taken into consideration.. I think he's taking shots better now that he doesn't have to cut so much weight..
