GGG/Canelo I Highlights

Power puncher GGG was reduced to jabbing.

 

He has the best,most prolific jab of anyone around against a guy not known for his jab so why would you not use the jab,oddly enough his power punches hardly touched Canelo whereas his jab would rock him back more.
I’ll be interested to see if Canelo and Golovkin have the same punch resistance as I expect Golovkin will get laid out before he retires,just a question of when and who.

I expect Golovkin to risk more this time and I hope he doesn’t rush it this time

 

More I watch this fight, I give Canelo more credit. He is still scum but I give him more credit, still have Golovkin winning just not by more than a round or 2.

Golovkin says he has loss all respect for Canelo, if so he needs to show that in the ring and not smile and play games.

 

I had never seen Golovkin fight so timid. I feel that if Canelo hadn't tired after round four, Golovkin would have not been able to rally a come back in the middle rounds.

I made a thread stating that I feel Golovkin likely isn't the same fighter after his fight with Canelo. That old boxing term comes to mind, I feel Golovkin "left something in the ring". He gave it his all, the way he kept coming forward despite getting clobbered with clean power punches, and its very likely his chin won't be the same. Happens all the time.

 

Problem with this highlights package is that this is virtually all of Canelo's good stuff. Golovkin's work is harder to highlight because its steady and constant, not these bursts of action and then ages before doing anything else.

 

GGG's work is harder to highlight because he missed nearly 70% of his punches, probably more to be honest, and the punches that he did land were mostly measuring jabs... Hard to make a highlight out of measuring jabs..

We've all seen GGG's two good punches he landed in the entire fight a bazillion times though.

 

GGG does the same thing in every fight. He stalks, jabs and throws hard punches that works for probably most fights he is in. I think Canelo is a different animal. He was countering GGG all night. Canelo is more experienced and GGG is older. GGG is going to have to increase his jab output and somehow avoid all those counters. I really want to see Canelo fight Jacobs and Sanders. I like both fighters almost equally.

 

If that’s your opinion, it’s perfectly fine but have you ever heard the expression - opinion is like a dick, it’s great to have one but you shouldn’t wave it around in public. ?
You’re trying too hard to get everyone’s attention with it, makes me wonder what’s the underlying issue.

On a side note, you’re right, it’s not an easy task to make a highlight video of Golovkins work that night. So what?
You don’t win a fight by having 15-20sec bursts per round just to look good.
Golovkin outworked and outlanded Canelo and, luckily, about 80% of boxing community were not looking for reasons to give Ginger rounds, they based their cards and opinions on the work that both fighters put in.

All of your “power puncher reduced to jabber” gibberish only show your lack of understanding and serve as a further embarrassment for Canelo since he still lost and was gifted a decision.

 

This really made me want to throw in something sarcastic about boxing styles and that description being vague as hell but instead i’d like to ask you this - what do you mean by saying Canelo is more experienced of the pair?

 

I didn't say of the pair. I said Canelo is more experienced as in since the last fight while GGG is a year older.

 

BT is promoting the fight more than HBO or Golden Boy Boxing

 

How is me stating that it is easier to make highlights of Canelo landing punches on GGG than the other way around??

Canelo landed the more telling, and more meaningful punches throughout the fight.

GGG outworked Canelo mostly between rounds 5-9. Unfortunately for GGG, pro boxing isn't scored based on who lands more punches, you are confusing Amateur scoring system with pro scoring system.

Canelo landed the harder cleaner punches, Canelo used much better defense, Canelo set the tempo of the fight. In the first three rounds Golovkin looked lost, and in the last three rounds Golovkin was fighting without a plan just following Canelo around trying to land a haymaker and missing badly almost evrytime while Canelo countered beautifully and outslugged GGG in the 12th also...

Prize fighting is socred based on who has better DEFENSE, who landed the HARDER CLEANER PUNCHES, who demonstrated better RING GENERALSHIP, and who's AGRESSION is more EFFECTIVE.

The jab, while being a very good weapon, and almost vital at the elite level is the safest least damaging punch in boxing. Canelo landed more power punches, and the power punches he landed were more impactful than the power punches GGG was landing. Canelo also beat up GGG to the body not just the head.

If this fight were an amateur fight you can definitely argue that since GGG landed more of those measuring jabs he deserved the win, but its prize fighting and the 10 pt mst scoring system must be used to score the fight. If you did not use the 10 point must scoring system to score this fight I recommend you to o back and watch it using that system.

 

Canelo is more experienced at the elite level.

 

I don't think this fight needs much promoting here in the U.S. where the vast majority of the revenue will be coming from.
