It's not a case of whether GGG wins, but whether he wins by KO or TKO.

Oooh. Honestly I think it will be a good fight and will depend on the strength of canelos chin which we don't really know yet. We know canelo is an aggressor which in my opinion is the best strategy against triple g as we've seen in the limited success some of golovkins opponents have had against him doing this. If canelo however allows triple g to back him up he has no chance given golovkins great skills cutting off the ring and canelo in my opinion not being great fighting off his back foot.

Thing with Canelo is that he gives off the image of an aggressive fighter due to his forward movement, but his output isn't actually that high and he typically fights in spots due to what I believe is poor stamina.

IMO that's not the type of busy style that GGG may be vulnerable to.

Yea he does seem to pick his shots but against triple g i think the only way to win is to be just as busy or busier than ggg himself. I also think trying to go for the big knockout blow against tripe g will not work because his chin has actually been tested against legit m iddleweights

GGG by late stoppage or Canelo by decision. Sounds like straddling the fence, but GGG needs to KO/TKO him to win. Canelo is one of those rare boxers that score points hitting air.
