    Super overrated power. Golovkin couldn't knock down Rosado but people have selective memory when it comes to this uber bum from the former Soviet Union. Golovkin's hype is the same as Ronda Rousey's, it's built on mental fear, once he started fighting guys that were not afraid of his manufactured reputation he started struggling.
    This guy is done and Canelo is going to beat his ass.

    Assuming you're on about Jose Miguel, I would suggest it's because Canelo was like what, 20?

    You believe GGG power overrated? Now? Right at the end of his career? With all those other pro Boxers who have fought him or have sparred with him that all universially say his power is legit you are NOW going to say you think his power is overrated? An opinion is an opinion but on this occasions our opinions differ.

    And by the way he did hurt Canelo or Canelo wouldnt of run all night. Canelo legit won the 1st 2 rounds because he was answering Golovkins attacks and he was getting the better of Golvkin. Then he decided to run, he was getting hurt. If he wasnt getting hurt why change a winning formula? He would of won.

    Canelo didn't run, he is a counterpuncher first and foremost, what Lara was doing against him that was running.

    He ran, the counterpunching won him the 1st 2 rounds when he was answering GGG most times, but after that the counterpunching dried up. He ran.

    Canelo won the first 2 and the last 3 rounds, the 3rd round could have gone either way.

    I gave him the 1st 2 and the last 2 and i called the 6th a drawn round. It looked to me like hed figured out pretty quick he couldnt stand with Golovkin so went on the run, had a good 6th to show he wasnt done and had a push at the end. Something thats been done in this sport a thousand times.

    Yet, Yet, Yet Canelo didn't stand his ground and go toe to toe like a Mexican Warrior, Canelo went backwards, hmmmm.


    That's how much of a female dog Canelo actually is, Golovkin has bang average power yet Canelo didn't want to walk through it and have a real fight.

    Canelo is an embarrassment to the Mexican people, a true embarrassment.

    That isn't called running, it's called smart boxing, Canelo knew that GGG had the power advantage and he fought from the backfoot and picked his shots, in the last 3 rounds he went toe to toe with GGG, try to watch fights from a boxing point of view instead of jumping on every hate train in this forum.

    I scored it 114-114 the first time and 115-113 for Golovkin the second time, it should have been a win for Golovkin
    or a draw, Canelo wouldn't have deserved to win.
