Molina and smith were effective because they brought the pressure and smothered cintrons punches but doesnt even get down like that.
Gomez landed way too many flush right hands to canelos chin and if he had any real power behind them, canelo could have got severely hurt, possibly even knocked out.
If cintron brings his A game, he can beat canelo. This is a respectable step up.
I agree with what you're saying, but IMO Canelo is better technically than Angulo, he has better movement and a wider variety of punches and combinations than Angulo as well
I honestly feel like Alvarez put up a lazy performance against Gomez, he didn't look like he was really into the fight at all and was just going through the motions, he knew that Gomez is a light puncher and that he wouldn't be able to hurt him so he didn't even bother to avoid his shots, hell Canelo has a good jab and he didn't even bother really committing to it
Cintron is pretty good technically, but his power has seemed to have faded a bit in his last couple of fights, he has stamina issues and he's always hot and cold, you never know how he'll show up, he's kinda like the Red Sox, he can have everything going in his favor and he'll still find a way to choke
Sorry man, but I don't like Canelo's movement at all. He is too flat footed for me and I see a mover giving him problems. I like Cintron in this fight. The only question is if Cintron is already past it. He might be. If he moves like he did against Angulo, he could give Canelo a lot of problems. What's the weight for the fight?
I said Canelo has better movement than Angulo not Cintron, Canelo side steps, Angulo just plods forward, Canelo actually uses angles and Angulo just shoots at you from in front of you, Canelo has a better shot than Cintron and Kermit's fights were always a matter of if, for example if he was gonna control the tempo, if he was gonna be able to keep it together mentally, or if he was going to actually use skill or just freeze up, it's been that way his entire career don't see any difference now
I dont feel like Canelo put up a lazy performance against GOmez.. IT was gomez' experience that made him look that way. Fighters, especially the youngsters like Canelo, CANNOT afford to be lazy on big stages like HBO PPVs.. Credit goes to Gomez cause he came to fight..
We all know that Pressure is what bothers Cintron and Canelo doesnt bring enough of it.. That's not his style..
I know what you mean about Cintron's diminished punching power but when your opponent is up in your face all night and smothering your punches just as Molina and Smith did, then of of course you're not going to get full extention of your punches..
Even when a fighter is washed up, the punching power doesnt disapear just like that.. CIntron still has power but it's just a confidence issue and the way he was smothered that made him look weak..
I really like Kermit's chances.. I think he can win.. If I were to wager on this bout, ID definitely go by a decision... Kermit isn't getting knocked out. That much is clear to me..
