I think it would resemble Golovkin vs Murray. Canelo is big but I don't think he'll take the shots as good. Gets KO'd in around the 8th
A fight I would like to see also
Definitely a big fight that most people would love to see, but I don't think Canelo's people would put him anywhere near GGG. To be fair , it's a big ask stepping up a division and fighting one of the most Dominant powerful champions there is.
GGG probably by KO, but it would tell us a lot about both fighters to be fair.
Golovkin said he would come down for pac or nob ed, why not alverezQuote:

Why Should he? Mayweather and Pac both started at divisions way below Light Middle and Middle and would have to move up a bit to make the match. Canelo is a light Middle who has been constantly banging on about moving up to MW. in his last fight, I believe it was above the Light Middle limit anyway.Quote:

if we're being honest, Canelo's future is at MW, and he wanted Cotto , which would've been the perfect first step. But I don't think he's ready to move up and take GGG's power even at a catchweight.
cotto already lost his punching power when he moved up in weight in the last time. If he tries to move up again forget it
Canelo said recently he isn't moving up to middleweight any time soon.Quote:

GGG destroys him but Canelo would land some good shots. They wouldn't matter but he'd land some good shots.
It's really a terrible matchup for Canelo because Canelo likes to work then rest, work then rest. GGG does massive damage when his opponent isn't working.
GGG wins at middleweight and I think also at light middle.
There is absolutely no chance of either Alvarez or Cotto fighting GGG. It's just not going to happen. Golovkin could beat both of them on the same night.
GGG destroys anyone 160 and down. He would likely agree to fight Canelo at 154 and it wouldn't make a difference, he would chew Canelo up and stop him around the 6th round (if not sooner).
i agree with this to a certain extent, styles make fightsQuote:

i have to say tho perhaps the way to beat Golovkin is to stand your ground and try and edge forward
canelo may do that and have some success
I think this would make a top fight , Canelo is tough and busy , GGG is calculated and deadly.
Make the fight , GGG late stoppage.
Who has GGG fought?
