    I guess you could say GGG's power kept him honest...but that'd be stretching it...

    I’m no Canelo fan. Had him losing both GGG fight. Gave him hell for the Clen. Was rooting for a Plant upset. That did not happen. Not even remotely close.

    I saw Canelo winning and winning big going into the 11. Plant won 3 rds at best.

    Yeah, saying that would be a stretch cause Canelo just kept coming forward and GGG was unable or unwilling to commit to his offense.

    I agree with your analysis . The greatness of Canelo is he got the Knockout

    He may have got in bad habits, falling in love with his power as he said. Against GGG that might be his down fall, he might get careless against someone with huge power and a axe to grind.

    GGG made adjustments, and his back never touched the wropes. GGG had canelo head bouncing around like a bobble head from his power jabs. GGG had Canelo hurt in round 10 of the 2nd fight. GGG fought a great fight against Canelo in both fights.
