GGG - Macklin a 50-50 Are you mad I was going to put Golovkin as a 1/7 fav. He is a beast and reckon hell finish Mack in the 7th or 8th. If anyone who thinks this fight is a 50-50 and wants to give me odds of 4/6 on Golovkin Ill gladdly have a wager with them.
GGG-Macklin is a fun fight in the making, but I agree GGG should walk through him.

Canelo very well may do as you say, he just hasn't performed against the same level of opposition that Trout has to date. In addition, he was rattled badly by Cotto's brother a few years ago. I also think of Canelo as a guy who will grow into a full junior middlweight, but he's not quite there yet. There's a reason he was fighting blown up welterweights until very recently. Trout is a full-fledged junior middleweight, perhaps even a big one. He moves around the ring a lot too and has a longer reach than Canelo.
