    Anyone have any theories why ggg wouldn't go to the body? Was he afraid of counters? Seems hard to believe he could've just forgotten.

    Yeah, I have a theory:

    “You got any excuses tonight, Roy?”

    Just kidding (us Jones fans will never forget that line).

    GGG was weary of Canelo’s crisp counters over the top. As such he preferred the safety of staying behind the jab to the head.

    It was an "Adjustment", Just Like GGG Deciding to Fight Off his Backfoot All of a Sudden...

    His LACK of Bodypunching was BRILLIANT and it's Shameful the Judges Didn't Properly Award GGG For It...

    One thing I noticed rewatching the fight - GGG made Canelo miss a lot. Seemed like in the first fight people never stopped talking about how Canelo made GGG miss so often (and for that matter how well he avoided GGG's offense with movement). But we don't hear much about how GGG turned the tables in the second fight.

    My advice to GGG would be not to read into the judge's scoring and think you can make changes that will convince them.

    Alvarez is facing Rocky Felding, december 15th at MSG.

    I'll be honest, im still a fairly big boxing fan, and Ive never even heard of felding. When was the last time the top draw in boxing fought an opponent you never even heard of?

    He's a belt holder at 168.

    Callum Smith blew him away in a round.

    sounds like xplosive is familiar with felding. hes british so Im guessing the brits here at least have seen him a time or two.

    i had never even heard of this fuck. when was the last time the biggest draw in boxing faced an opponent you NEVER even heard of?

    Looks pretty limited from what I saw on YouTube. Probably the worst title holder in the sport. Ginger will use him as a big heavybag.

    This guy is a nobody, but the Garden will be completely sold out.

    I sure as shit aint going though.

    I'm surprised though. I was almost positive it was gonna be LeMoo.

    Well, I guess Canelo was due a gimme, but this is as uninteresting a matchup as you can get

    Lol what the fuck? Rocky Fielding has a belt? When the shitting fuck did that happen??? The only fight I've seen on him is when he got buttfucked in a round by Smith.
