GGG will come forward with a ram rod jab, right hook and left uppercut on Canelo.Quote:

First, Jacobs is very underrated. He is fast and has a good punch. He looked a decent amount bigger than GGG too. I think that Jacobs pretty easily has a size, speed, and power advantage over Canelo. So I don't think that Canelo will bring anything that GGG hasn't seen before in those departments.
GGG is still a really good boxer. Even though Jacobs had good movement, GGG was able to still get in often and land good punches. He may be slipping a bit but I don't think that significantly.
Last, Canelo won't be able to outbox GGG. He is decent enough but he isn't a great tactician. Also, he won't be able to outgun GGG.
If Canelo can either outbox or outgun GGG then I will admit I severely underrated Canelo
I already know the outcome. Canelo will win a unanimous decisionQuote:

And as obvious as Mayweather vs McGregor.

Question, will Alvarez be pound for pound number one
When he dominates Golovkin or does he need to do more?
I guess Crawford is the number one at the moment.
Even if somehow Canelo beats GGG, IMO he still wouldn't even have a case for #1 p4p. GGG is a great fighter but I think a bit overrated. He was outside my top 5 not too long ago but with the loss of chocolatito, Kovalev pending on how well he comes back, and Rigo being inactive, he may have snuck back in.Quote:

The better question is, if GGG dominates, does Canelo have any case for being a p4p fighter?
I'm looking forward to the Caballero/ De La Hoya fight as wellQuote:

@Batman this undercard makes our Sky/Matchroom ones look like gold.
I'm leaning towards De La Hoya, Caballero is decent but has been very inactive and hasn't looked that good in recent times. I thought the Hall fight was much closer than those cards suggested.Quote:

What exactly does Canelo bring that Golovkin hasn't seen? Nothing. Golovkin's seen and beat every style, that's the whole benefit of having 500 million amateur bouts - bigger, faster, stronger, slicker etc.
Liam Smith was able to trap and pressure Canelo - but clearly didn't have the firepower/strength to make a dent - so how the funk is he gonna keep Golovkin off him? Canelo could be turned into Curtis Stevens, swinging for a homerun as he concentrates on protecting himself.
5.30am Wednesday - Golovkin KO/TKO/DQ 7-12 @ 3/1 (generally).
Golovkin is overrated and the hype will be exposed soonQuote:

But Chocolatito was even more overrated in my opinion.
1. Terence Crawford
2. Andre Ward
3. Saul Alvarez
4. Gennady Golovkin
5. Vasyl Lomachenko
That's how I'd rank them and the winner Saturday
Can make a strong case for being the number one
Canelo will move above Ward for sure.
I hope you stick around after Saturday.
this is a massive fight in my head, I cant remember a fight that doesn't involve a brit that I have been more interested in
I cant wait till it kicks off
comparing it to the daft fight the other week, not 1 of my mates have even mentioned it to me
some of them are half into boxing
why is that?
I'll be here to hear all the excuses ;)Quote:

If he loses he'll take Naz place as the biggest hype job in history (even though he totally dominated his era/weight for his time).
Just say to them GGG is the one that smashed Kell Brook and they will remember who he is.Quote:

Wow. I feel that you highly overrate Canelo. Even if he beats GGG, I doubt I will have him that high let alone before that. If Canelo were that good, I would expect him to beat GGG pretty easily.Quote:

I'm pretty excited to see Canelo get beat and see what your reaction is. Just don't run away after he loses.
I still maintain Canelo made a tactical error when he fought JCC Jr. at 170. He lost any bargaining chip he may have had to try and force GGG to 154. He couldn't say any longer "I'm not a middleweight." Finally he had to accept the challenge against GGG at 160, and it'll be the only time in his career that he won't be facing someone he outweighs by 20-30 pounds at fight night.
I'm going to enjoy this one.
@powerpuncher he will win easily and I'll be here to gloat
Boxrec actually already has him as their number one P4P.
@TitoFan I'm pretty sure Chavez out weighed Canelo
He was also much taller and had a huge reach advantage
Speed beats size so Golovkin can weigh what he wants.
