That has a lot to do with age. It's both. The same exact thing happened to Kovalev. Dominated the comp his entire run but got older AS the comp was getting better. Jacobs is the only guy who was there when GGG was still in his prime and isn't a new comer. The rest are relatively new to the weight class.He's only gone 12 rounds against opponents who have considerable talent (Danny and Nelo)...
That's not a coincidence and has nothing to do with age...
90% of the mas resume is cans and journeymen, he was expected to crush them and he did...that is not an exaggeration...
This shyt is honestly embarrassing as a boxing fan. Then you have these dudes cards presented as neutral. Triple G winning 8 rounds what a jokeBoxing media clearly wanted canelo to lose and they never hid their bias in favor of GGG before the fight. Due to the controversy with the first fight and the whole clenbuterol scandal, youknow these guys were gonna give GGG the benfit of the doubt and give him every close round.This wasn't a robbery, not even close.
Also the boxing media have been hyping GGG up for years
Not every close fight is a robbery
People in this thread had different scores
Now imagine if 3 of yall were judges
#Inyafeelings ?!GGG and co said they would take the decision out of the judges hands this time because they knew this would happen again, and they didn't. So far Canelo/Golden boy had gotten 2 judges suspended (Cj Ross and Adelaide byrd). Do you know a good way to cheat the public? Disguise a close decision for your guy because your guy is going forward instead of backward, thereby playing the public and hoodwinking them into believing your guy won. Everyone is dissing Harold Lederman, and yes he is definitely old as fukk with these fukked up cards he gives HBO nowadays, but his card wasn't that far off from what really happened. There is no way in hell Canelo won more than 1 of the last 5 or 6 rounds. I had GGG winning rounds 7-12 myself.
Anyways it was a good fight, but GGG beat Canelo twice and has nothing to show for it. if I'm goldenboy I try to get a rubber match with GGG. Huge money and very little risk. Afterwards I call out Errol Spence. I forget who said it last night during the fight, but someone said that neither fighter will be the same after last nights fight. I agree. Any of the top 160 beats Canelo/knocks him out. He's at the end of his rope.
Exactly...
And he stopped throwing body punches not because of anything G did...
Nelo gassed as we expected him to but he had at least 6 rounds in the bank when he did this time...
That was the difference in the fight...
I had it 6-3 going into the 10th round...
Gave G 10 and 11 but scored the 12th for Canelo which Abel 100% agrees with me on...
Exactly...I’m glad that I can ignore 90% of y’all boxing opinions in here now. Most y’all just delirious stans and get hyped off HBO presentation.
I think Jacobs and Charlo would do better against Canelo. GGG can’t counterpunch to save his life. A slick mofo like Canelo would see that shyt coming all day which he did. Its hard to knock somebody out when the see and can anticipate all your punches. Charlo has the boxing skills to hit Canelo with some shyt he dnt see coming. GGG just jabbed to jabbed.(somebody said that idk who did.) and didn’t jab to set up something.
People thought Ward couldnt stop Sergay..it happened though.Wait Canelo took some of GGG's best shots and Blowjob Saunders is gonna take him out?
and what did i reply to? some shyt about which hurts more - a jab or a power punch
which means more in a brawl than a boxing match. unless you want to go ahead and flip the script on all the fights where a match was a stalemate outside of one fighter outlanding the other by significant margin.
even if you wanted to say body punches were doing work... if they did any damage then why the hell did GGG move to infighting for the second half of the fight and pick up his tempo while Canelo was the one winded? crazy power huh
even roy's "better punches" shyt is wild subjective lol
You think Spence would beat Canelo still?People thought Ward couldnt stop Sergay..it happened though.
The jab is the ultimate neutralizer to speed. You can control a fight with a jab and movement.
Forget ggg now. I'm talking about Sanders now...dudes in here acting like he would be humiliated by Canelo..lol.the problem is GGG didn't control the fight
half of the shots he landed in the fights were jabs,
he got beat to the body and head all while being forced to fight off his back foot.
Yep...stops him in under 9.You think Spence would beat Canelo still?
