Canelo Alvarez vs Gennady Golovkin III 17/9/22

...if GGG knocks Canelo into a glassy-eyed stupor...

Some people fantasize about having a million dollars. This is mine.

...so Canelo knocks GGG out, huh? OK fair enough, but what round are we talking here? Are we talking a first round blast-out like Lennox vs Golota? A mid-rounds grind-down like say 6-7-8? Or a "take him out to the deep blue sea" 10-11-12 round smashing like Fury/Wilder 3?

Unfortunately, it'll be either the "grind-down" or the "deep blue sea". But no way Ginger blasts out GGG in the first couple of rounds. GGG is too sturdy and too much of a professional for that.

But Ginger KNOWS the judges are firmly in his corner.

A GGG decision win is not only out of the question. It's is as plausible as Flat Earthers admitting they've been wrong all these years. So when you have that kind of knowledge, you can rest assured that your opponent is forced to try and win by knockout... which will of course only work in Ginger's favor.

I read many years ago that in Karagandy, Kazakhstan, that GGG used to fight in the streets from the age of 10. I am hoping he has some old school feints or tricks up his sleeve that he can pull out in desperate moments like say in Round 5 when it becomes clear it is not going in his favor, and catch the younger "more corporate" 'Ging by surprise. It's how Foreman caught Moorer supposedly: he instinctively inched closer at a certain unexpected moment -- the opposite of what Moorer expected -- and with that extra inch he put Moorer right on the end of his sneaky punch.

So anyway, good post, so it's Grind Down vs Deep Blue Sea? WHat a way for GGG to end his career, if that is the case.
