Golovkin-Canelo OFFICIAL!!!- Sept 16th

[Master]

I also believe that GGG will win this fight against Canelo.

The two fearsome fighters will meet in the ring on September 16, 2017 - ie this weekend. The fight will be held at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, America.


Thanks.

PK?

Golovkin looks like a skinny bitch and Alvarez looks like a body builder. I'm starting to question if this will even go the distance, Alvarez might take his soul.

In September do we know what the weight will be?

Is it 160 or another carchweight?

How do you think this fight goes down?

Is the power of Canelo going to be effective at 160?

Is GGG still picking on the small guys?
(Apart from Jacobs)

Discuss..

the hbo fellows said it was at the 160 limit.

I just don't think Canelo will hurt GGG.

His punches might not be that effective at this weight.

He needs to try and outbox him and use all those 26 years against GGG 35 years.

If GGG wins I want the BJS fight and Jacobs rematch straight away..and is Lara still a viable choice?

GGG might be another Hopkins and fight on for another 5 years..

Canelo got tired in the middle rounds against Chavez..the size difference was massive.

I was expecting oscar to drag it out until Autumn 2018..quite surprised it's happening now.

You listed the problem with the fight. Canelo's stamina. The hope to make this fight competitive fell on the idea moving up in weight would improve his stamina. To beat GGG you have to move and when trapped move your hands. He cuts off the ring so well there is constant pressure. That drains a fighter. But he doesn't do his best work when things are coming back at him. He does amazing damage if you stop fighting though because of his punch selection and technique. If Canelo moved up and his stamina jumped maybe he could move (even though he is slow of foot) and throw and move again because he has good hand speed and good enough power. But his stamina leads him to take breaks. GGG isn't the guy to take breaks against. GGG makes you fight 36 full minutes and Canelo is not about that action.

For Canelo to win he has to out box GGG for 36 minutes. For GGG to win he only has to hold his own when they both fight and do what he does(damage) when Canelo does what he does(takes breaks)

Ignoring Chavez Jr...is GGG just too big for Canelo?

There both great in their different weight classes but I just don't see how Canelo can win this fight.

Let's ask this question as well..would Canelo beat all of GGG opponents and vice versa for GGG.

After GGG beats Canelo I'm more interested in how he will fair at 168 mixing it up with the Degale, Eubanks and Groves of the division..I think it will be interesting..if it happens.

No. I'm guessing that Canelo walks around heavier than GGG

[GaMo]

No, Alvarez is too good for GGG

No, Alvarez is too good for GGG

I don't see Canelo having KO power at 160...just don't see it.

mmmm....

Would Canelo beat Jacobs?

Would Canelo beat Jacobs?

I believe he would beat Jacobs

[imp]

Main positive I see for Canelo is that GGG is not a mayweather type fighter.

Would Canelo beat Jacobs?

I don't think so. Jacobs is a really good fighter and his biggest perceived weakness was his chin. He lasted against GGG and by many opinions won the fight. I think that Jacobs is a bit too good of a boxer for Canelo and I don't think Canelo will have near the power at 160
