    Like if knocking out macklin was something of difficult.... Destroying the vast majority of gg's opononents is not a big deal, tbh. Cotto can do it too, I dont think that's something to brag about.

    Ouma goes 12 with Canelo, and Cotto, just like the smaller Lovemore N'Dou did. Daniel Jacobs would KO Cotto, point blank. He'd beat Canelo too.

    The only fighters Canelo can knock out are hand-picked Glass Jawed opponents like Kirkland and Khan, or small WW's moving up.

    Would Canelo even beat Brook or Jacobs? Toss-up fights IMO.

    Here are some of the supposedly iron-jawed opponents whom GGG knocked out:

    Kell Brook who was knocked out by Errol Spence,

    Lemiew who had been knocked out by Rubio,

    Rosado who had been knocked out three previous times,

    Sergey Khomitsky who had been knocked out twice before,

    Daniel Geale was later KOD twice.

    The rest are mostly tomato cans who don't even seem to warrant a detailed description on WIKI.

    Props to them for adding Tommy Hearns and Roberto Duran to the video. They had a Canastota cast.

    Kell Brook has a granite chin, did you even see the fight? He was never knocked down.

    I should have said TKOd.

    BTW
    He went down on one knee voluntarily to be counted out.

    Did you watch the fight?

    I can easily see GGG knocking out Cotto (too small), everyone Canelo ever knocked out, and Chavez Jr. I see Canelo having a much more competitive match against the Kell Brook that faced GGG, and winning by close decision. I give Canelo little chance against the Giant Jacobs that fought Golovkin.

    Rosado had been stopped once before (by Angulo) not 3 times

    Khomitsky has 2 other stoppage losses on his record.

    'In his two other stoppages, 'The Ghost' suffered an injury retirement against Avtandil Khurtsidze, while a mix-up with the taping on his gloves accounted for his other inside-the-distance loss to former world champion Robert Stieglitz

    That later was an absolute joke

    'In a relatively even bout, which appeared to be much closer than the scorecards indicated, Robert Stieglitz won by TKO against game opponent Sergey Khomitsky. Stieglitz was the more busier fighter, while Khomitsky focussed on single punches.

    A left-right combination sent Stieglitz to the canvas in the end of round nine. However, the referee ruled it a slip

    Khomitsky was taken out of the fight at the start of round 10 while his right glove was retaped. According to WBO supervisor Beate Poeske, Khomitsky's corner took off the loose tape from Khomitsky's wrist, which was ruled as prohibited. According to Miss Poeske, Khomitsky's corner was only allowed to cover the loose tape with furthermore tape. Khomitsky was already dealing with a loose tape in the previous rounds. Miss Poeske said, that Khomitskys corner had no more tape in reserve and that there was no cutman, who could deal with the situation. So, the WBO's statement was, that Khomitsky was taken out of the fight at the beginning of round ten, because his corner was not able to retape the right glove and because Khomitskys cornerman detached the rest of the loose tape

    Canelo beat that AZE off of Cotton Cotto....Did you miss that fight?
    GGG would murder any opposition Canelo has faced in the past

    Then why didn't Canelo fight any of GGG previous opponents? I am sure those guys would not have minded the payday.

    Instead they got tailormade Khan and Kirkland.

    yeah but he didn't. You can say it and then in reality Cotto takes him 12.. To see it in reality would have been different.
