    Default Can GGG get any better?

    Unless you're last name is hopkins Father Time affects all of us.

    Is there any part of GGG game that you think he can improve on (head movement etc) to make him an even better fighter at this stage?

    How long can he leave it before he moves up in weight? Or does he even need to if he will make so much money with the Canelo rematch?

    Golovkin is slowing down and not as effective cutting down the ring.

    He really is Hagler now some young active boxer will beat him in the very near future.

    No Canelo did not. Ironically Saul tried to do what Leonard did against Hagler which was to steal rounds with eye catching punches but really Golovkin was doing the effective work and landing the better point scoring punches.

    I thought Golovkins output was better than against Jacobs this time out and to be fair he outlanded Canelo in all but one round and landed over 50 more blows. The only weakness really was that he started very tense. I am not sold on a rematch, but if it was to happen in the next 6 months I see it going the same way, but maybe a little more urgency from Golovkin. He knows Canelo fights only in spurts and knows his style now. I liked how GGG took most of Canelo's shots on the arms too. A tighter defence than we have seen recently. It took a few rounds to figure it out, but Golovkin is the one who made the adjustments and showed the better ring IQ. However, in saying that Golovkin has a style that won't last another half decade. He has 3 fights left and should make them count. That is one reason I am not sure he really owes Canelo a rematch. Jacobs sure, but this wasn't that close.

    Well wrote. Few appreciate the subtle technical skills Golovkin has, he made Canelo gas out and stay on the ropes. Golovkin just outpointed him from there.

    Canelo had to fight GGG that way and no one should be surprised he was on his bike picking his moments.

    GGG could get better in the rematch by perhaps going to the body early?

    He can't get any better now & there is no way he'll move up now.

    He's never shown any inclination to move up before, so I can't see him doing it now.

    He can make a ton more money fighting Alvarez again, although he'd probably have to send a Terminator back in time to wipe out Canelo's family, so that Saul is never born, in order to get a decision against Alvarez!
