GGG by TKO in 6
Right now I am even leaning towards Cotto to beat Canelo based on how poorly Canelo kept Kirkland off of him. Sure he ended up KO'ing Kirkland, but he couldn't keep James off of him all that well. You see a few times where James would drop back and gather himself....really after 1 bum rush straight forward being fended off you'd assume that Kirkland would have started looking for angles and stayed on the outside trying to work in behind the jab, but he didn't.
Canelo is a good boxer, but he takes his time in the ring and he's not as forceful when he's not getting his way in there which can give the wrong guy a little sniff of victory and to a hungry fighter that's a very dangerous thing.
