Saul “Canelo” Alvarez cannot compete with the power that Gennady “GGG” Golovkin has going for him, according to GGG’s trainer Abel Sanchez.

Golovkin (37-0, 33 KOs) will be putting up his IBF, IBO, WBA and WBC middleweight titles against the highly popular Canelo (49-1-1, 34 KOs) in a little over 3 weeks from now on September 16 on HBO pay-per-view at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Sanchez hasn’t changed his mind about Canelo not having similar power as the 35-year-old Triple G. Sanchez still views Canelo as a “slapper” and not a big puncher.

Sanchez knows what big punchers are at the middleweight level. He’s seen Daniel Jacobs fight, and feels he’s a big puncher at 160, but not Canelo.

“They both can bang the same — I don’t think so,” said Sanchez to Fighthub in comparing Canelo to Golovkin in the power department. ”I think Golovkin is a bigger puncher, I think Canelo is more of a slapper.”
