    IDK Chris because if that punch, if everything else is the same with chin up in air, is repeated I see GGG staggering but I don't think it will happen because GGG has a much stronger chin than Khan and even if he is wounded I doubt Canelo could finish him off.

    That's the only reason khan can throw those rapid fire pitter pats flurries, you can't do that in a defensive chin down guard up position, that's why khan usually gets countered and banged out

    One decent think about Khan is the kid can box, his footwork is amazing IMO, and take risk.

    Khan's chin is made out of the weakest substance found in the known universe and GGG's is forged out of the strongest.

    Very stupid. The Mayorga boxing style isn't popular for a very good reason.

    Nah you misunderstood my post. I meant Golovkin wouldn't just stand there with his chin up in punching range when he has just been hurt by a bigger stronger man.

    Guess I misunderstood. Sorry about that.

    BTW
    I get the impression that in this encounter it's GGG who is considered to be the bigger stronger man.

    It's cool.

    Yeah, that's the general consensus. I think Golovkin hits harder and is taller, but I think Canelo will weigh more on fight night. That being said the size advantage goes to GGG.
