I agree it could happen. Canelo is not of the same stature as Triple G. Canelo's frame isn't the same. Triple G hits a lot harder as well and will be much angrier this time as he got really ripped off in that last decision and will want to finish this guy up quick this time. When you add that anger in there and that he really wants to make a statement he may indeed kill Canelo.

Round 3

At least Canelo is doing 'better' testing now. We will see how he really looks.

And that's another great point you just made. The fact that he's not going to be taking these substances anymore will certainly make him less powerful. but mentally he probably will still think he has the power that he had eating the tainted steak. That means this time he's going to come out and attack more and sit in the pocket and therefore I think there's a bigger likelihood of him really eating a shot and getting totally destroyed

I think so too. There are many so called 'experts' picking Canelo tho. Maybe they think GGG has slipped enough.

Canelo is thinking that he is younger and he is also thinking that he better jump on the guy quick so I think he will be really aggressive. I can't see him running like he did last time. I think he suffered a lot with a lot of accusations after that fight of running like a coward. The problem is going to be that he is going to step into the pocket like Pacquiao did against Marquez and I think he is really going to get jolted.

That's my feeling to, but I having a tingling in the back my mind that the timing for Canelo could be just right. GGG has been more inactive over the last couple of years, he's no spring chicken anymore either. A Canelo win would be pretty devastating for GGGs legacy.

I don't even know why Triple G is taking this fight. Everybody knows he won the first fight hands down. Then Canelo gets caught taking the hormones steroids whatever. Then the fight gets canceled. Why on Earth would Triple G waste his time and fight a guy whilst clearly being let's say one step over the hill which isn't much but it sure could do the trick. I always felt like the lighter weight classes got older quicker. the heaviest can fight on into their 40s but can you imagine Triple G at the age of 45 or something?

$$$

In the lower weights age plays a huge factor, but look at guys like Moore or Hopkins, they started out lower but were more than competitive at higher weights and advanced ages.

Munguia gets Brandon Cook on undercard. At first look that feels like a one way thrashing. Any chance they're just setting up his 160 debut with Lemieux-Spike winner? Or will Canelo get the winner for his comeback fight after Golovkin beats the freckles off of him.

Munguia has been talking unification, so I hope that's the path he takes. This will be a pasting.

Canelo's ban should now have ended right?

Yes, which is why he is due to fight Triple G.

Canelo is going to try to strike fast like a cobra. He will definitely be making his move by the 2nd or the third round.

Do you know what date it ended? The fight has been scheduled for months, but he was still banned. Just wanted to know the date it ended.

It's six months from February the 17th so I think it ended about a week ago.

Thanks buddy. I knew it ended in August but wasn't sure exactly when.
