Predictions - GGG vs. Rubio?
Does it go rounds? Will Rubio be a tougher challenge than Geale, Macklin, Stevens, Adama and Proksa?

GGG in 6 or 7. Very onesided up til then.

This is a showcase fight. There's no doubt about it. At the same time, Rubio is a legitimate top ten fighter at middleweight. We're not walking into a Rod Salka-Danny Garcia scenario. When are GGG fights not fun to watch? Even when we factor in that he's a big favorite to stop Rubio, I'm still looking forward to see him fight.
As we've talked about, I understand where you're coming from though if you're frustrated in seeing him clean out the division.
Still, with Walters-Donaire on the undercard too, I think it'll be a fun night of boxing.

Rubio is tough
I reckon he could take him rounds
Re: Predictions - GGG vs. Rubio?
Rubio is tough and I have no doubt Golovkin will stop him, but I have no predictions as to when. I will tune in (even if it is the recording I watch as if Live) to watch a master at work. I love GGG, always have and like the cut of his jib.

This is the most likely outcome. Rubio takes him rounds and eventually is stopped in the later rounds. This is what I expect. If it ends earlier and emphatically, it'll be a statement.
Re: Predictions - GGG vs. Rubio?
It's a cracking fight for the undercard of Donaire-Walters. Rubio is tough but offers nothing, it's just about how long he lasts. GGG will get slated by the walking dead however he wins here.
Sky Sports have bought it for the Brits, think this is the third GGG fight in a row, maybe looking for the future Froch fight

What would be the bigger upset -- Rubio beating GGG or Algieri defeating Pac?

I actually think Algieri is a live underdog in the Pacquiao fight. Pacquiao's the favorite, but Algieri has got a shot at boxing and moving to a decision. I would say Rubio beating GGG is a bigger upset.
Re: Predictions - GGG vs. Rubio?
I expect to see an even more dominant GGG. Hes going to make the ring very small for Rubio and probably put him down with a body shot in the fourth. Really looking forward to this fight.

Same and would just like to add that Rubio can punch and knows all the tricks.

I figure at least one of these fights will end in an upset.

Won't take much to pose a tougher challenge than they did
