Bro with all due respect, the fact that you’re calling the undisputed 168 champion of the world “ass” already let’s me know where you stand…..you gonna talk about canelo being flat footed when David is even more flat footed than canelo. He also has a weak defense, a soft body, and a suspect chin. We talking about the same David who got knocked down by a short Jab from Ronald gavril
Could you imagine if this was canelo?…..but I know I know. David’s not the same guy right?….he grew a new chin right?
Who has David fought that has prepared him for what canelo brings?….dude has quickly become the most overrated fighter in boxing for no reason other than y’all wanna throw shade at canelo. Once again….WHO has he beat that’s prepared him for canelo?…..I’ll wait.
And then you wanna bring up charlo. The same charlo who montiel had doing the stanky leg…..once AGAIN. imagine if canelo came out here and struggled with montiels bum ass. We’d never hear the end of it. Y’all don’t keep the same energy for these guys.
Sorry But canelo is not losing to David. Charlo is a tougher matchup because of his athleticism. But David gets picked apart and stopped before 8 rounds. He’s not the guy y’all think he is. Canelo is gonna dig into that soft ass body of his then spark him out with a overhand right. He’s not durable enough. Mark my words.
Excuses for his last two fights. Lol.Canelo: I Started To Get A Bit Fatigued; Haven't Been Able To Work Explosively In Gym

LAS VEGAS – Canelo Alvarez admitted that fatigue hindered him during the final few rounds of his 12-round win against Gennadiy Golovkin on Saturday night.
The 32-year-old Alvarez got off to a strong start and built a considerable lead on the scorecards, but Golovkin gave him some trouble once it was clear Alvarez grew tired by the ninth round. Golovkin was behind 78-74 on all three scorecards by then, which enabled Alvarez to secure a win that seemed more comfortable than the official scores submitted by judges Dave Moretti (116-112), David Sutherland (115-113) and Steve Weisfeld (115-113).
Alvarez explained during his post-fight press conference that his inability to train as hard as he wanted to prepare hurt his performance in the later rounds of their third fight at T-Mobile Arena.
“I think towards the end of the fight that I obviously started to get a bit fatigued,” said Alvarez, who retained his IBF, WBA, WBC and WBO super middleweight titles. “And that’s because we haven’t been able to work explosively in the gym. But this fight, with the problems that we had, I’m really happy with the performance tonight.”
Guadalajara’s Alvarez (58-2-2, 39 KOs) didn’t define exactly what he meant by working “explosively” in the gym, but he also revealed that his left wrist has hurt him since his 11th-round stoppage of Caleb Plant last November 6 at nearby MGM Grand Garden Arena. He’ll have surgery to repair cartilage damage in his wrist, which could keep him out of the ring until at least next May.
Alvarez said before he fought Golovkin for the third time, though, that his fragile knees allowed him to do roadwork for this training camp for the first time in more than four years. That should’ve enhanced his conditioning, but Alvarez, who has long dealt with stamina issues, was noticeably tired over the final four rounds.
The 40-year-old Golovkin threw 34 more punches overall than Alvarez, but he averaged only eight power punches through the first eight rounds, according to CompuBox’s unofficial statistics. Golovkin averaged 20 power shots over the final four rounds, yet still fewer than Alvarez, who landed almost twice as many power punches overall (85-of-217 to 46-of-171).
Golovkin (42-2-1, 37 KOs) connected on more jabs than Alvarez overall (74-of-350 to 45-of-270), but the Kazakhstan native appeared hesitant to throw right hands, particularly during the first half of their fight.
“What I feel, he didn’t throw his right hand because maybe he think I’m gonna counterpunch him,” Alvarez said. “Maybe that’s why he only throw the left hand. I just did my job. It was very difficult to hit him, too, because he’s like protecting everything, you know? It’s very difficult.”
Nobody gives a fukk about them media dikk riders. This the same media that put little g ahead of Winky Wright and Roy Jones all time
The opinions of the fighters is what really matters. And most fighters and trainers sided with canelo. Cause fighters know it’s about who’s really doing the damage. Even his own damn trainer said they lost that’s why he got fired
Andre ward hit it right on the head…
Andre ward: “a lot of the media are in love with golovkin. It’s a love affair. And when you’re blinded by a love affair you can’t see objectively. If you make your name by being this rah rah guy, why did you choose not to be that guy on the biggest night of your life?….there’s a reason for that. You asked for Mexican style. That’s what you called for. Your heard Roy say it. And the golovkin fans and the writers don’t wanna hear that but it’s the truth. Canelo did what y’all didn’t think he was gonna do. He stood there and gave you Mexican style. There was only one Mexican in the ring that night. And that was canelo”
Errol Spence & Derrick james: “Triple G said Mexican style and he was backing up the whole fight. Canelo stood there trying to fight and golovkin kept backing up trying to box”
Roy Jones: “The Mexican beat you Mexican style. You asked for a war and backed up the whole fight”
I rewatched the full fight yesterday. Canelo is being honest, Golovkin was very hard to hit last Saturday. That's the truth and why he couldn't get Golovkin out of there before the 9th. You see it early with how frustrated Canelo got around round 3 or 4 I think. When Canelo gets frustrated, it shows. He's terrible at hiding it. He always turns his head and starts to walk around the ring with aCanelo: I Started To Get A Bit Fatigued; Haven't Been Able To Work Explosively In Gym

face. He did it very early on in the fight, which let me know he was super frustrated. Unlike some of the other truly great great fighters, when Canelo gets frustrated he tends to check out and does just enough to cruise to victory, unless he gets lucky. It happened against Caleb plant...only difference is he eventually caught Plant and got lucky ..that doesnt happen against the elite of the elites like Golovkin.
Canelo didn't look great on Saturday. However, out of those fights you mentioned and this past one, I have yet to see any brehs in this thread or others even have the humility to say "I was wrong". I'm a fight fan, so I'm always down to dissect reasons fights didn't go the way they could have, or we can put Canelo's resume under a microscope and talk about it.
They did the same thing with Callum Smith and Saunders. Watch, when David gets beat, it's gonna be "he should've moved up to 175 last year, he's drained, he only had 6 weeks notice to stop doing cocaine" WHEN DOES IT END
Everybody said Canelo would win...no one picked GGG and thought he would get stopped. But Canelo looked lazy and looked like he was 40 after round 7.
I'm a GGG fan..I let it be known I was not happy with what I saw from him. Easily the first really bad GGG fight I have ever seen. The weight, the age. Whatever he look really past it. Now Canelo clearly won this fight. But he didn't look good. He looked like he is declining big time. That bivol fight probably put more mileage on him than we think. Its worse because he is the younger man. It just made for an overall bad fight.
Both dudes looked weathered. Definitely not used to seeing GGG be that gun-shy. You're right about Canelo and Bivol too. Moving up in weight and taking shots that you can't get out of the way of while the other dude makes it look easy can be taxing physically and mentally.
