When Canelo fought Cotto, I felt like there were several rounds where Cotto outboxed him, but just wasn't powerful enough to phase him. I could see a few of those happening w/ Canelo in this fight

But other than that, I do believe that GGG made himself "appear" to be vulnerable (to an extent) in previous fights in order to land this one, and therefore did not take training as seriously as he could've. I think he has taken training VERY seriously leading up to this fight
