But why is Brook's performance vs GGG heralded, even though he wasn't winning on the cards at the time of the stoppage, while Khan's performance vs Canelo's is dismissed, even though he was winning on the cards at the time of the stoppage, and lasted longer?


If Brook gets props vs GGG, then Khan gets props vs Canelo:manny:






GGG is one of the best pressure fighters in the sport period....great at cutting off the ring. Moving a little isn't going to do anything, Canelo's going to have to Thurman his way away from the pressure GGG will apply. GGG is bigger, stronger, longer, better stamina, better chin, great at cutting the ring, and throws many more punches than Canelo. You don't fight a fighter like that by standing in front of him imo, that's the main reason I think Canelo loses.


I don't believe he has the ability to move away from the pressure. He's a come forward fighter.


I guess in September the truth will have to be revealed:manny:
Imo he probably is the best pressure fighter right now

I know he can box but I think his fans sometimes tend to overrate his boxing ability as well.
And I know that Canelo hasn't faced anyone like Golovkin but at least he faced people with similar and even higher level than Golovkin even if not the same style while Golovkin not just hasn't faced an elite counter puncher like Canel, he also hasn't faced a fighter on Nelo's level in general.

Who has Canelo faced on GGG level :stopitslime:?

The GGG slander is crazy.

And like Newzz said Canelo ain't ever fought an elite stalker and somebody who excel and cutting off the ring. So it would be a first for both of them

Mayweather for example. Mayweather was a higher level fighter than Golovkin :ld:

I think what @reservoirdogs dogs means is that canelo has faced guys with better attributes then little g. he's faced faster guys, he's faced guys with better defense....hes faced guys with better technical ability. has little g ever faced a better counter puncher than canelo?....has he ever faced a better defensive fighter than canelo?....a better body puncher?.....a fighter with more speed?......brook is probably the same speed and we seen what happened there. canelo is a sharper puncher than brook though.


yea canelo hasn't faced a bigger puncher than little g, or a guy who can cut off the ring as well. but overall, canelo has much more experience vs a variety of different styles. while little g's whole resume is filled with one dimensional boxers with horrible defense.
