ggg won 8 and 9 imo but lost the last 3

Looking forward too it, could be a level playing field in that G is another year older and Canelo has had to stop eating KrytoCow, hope G does it but think he'll get robbed again.

I think we see the best of canelo last time I don't think he can do much better and he made ggg miss a lot with his right hand but I'd of thought ggg will have come up with a way to stop canelo from slipping it and if ggg regularly lands the right he could get the stoppage.

agreed

That's fair, but I think you have to acknowledge that 10 and 11 are swing rounds that could fairly be scored to either fighter.

My last minute thought would be I hope DLH and Gomez, the Reynosos, and Poppa Hopkins are all in perfect view when Canelo folds like a lawn chair.

My last thought is "why the F am i paying to get thoroughly aggravated"? Canelo has the fight won before walking down the isle. The judges are paid for. The Ref is paid for. The only possible way GGG walks out of that ring with the belt tonight is with a KO.

I just hope that GGG and His team know it. They were naive in the first one thinking that they could win an honest decision in Vegas against our modern day Floyd (Canelo). He needs a KO. Bottom line and that's all that fans need to know and all that GGG and his team need to know.

My ONLY hope at this point is that if Canelo wins this fight, he wins it inside 12 rounds. GGG is 36 years old right? He is bound to hit that wall and it could very well be GGG's wall tonight. I would even say that there's a better shot that GGG gets knocked out tonight than Canelo. I just don't want to be pissed off tonight. Boxing, don't piss me off again. Get it right for once in a big fight.

Also agreed.. I gave those to Canelo. I think only 4 of the 12 rounds were surefire certain. 2 for each

How should ggg get knocked out? How in hell? Have you ever even seen him even slightly staggered? It just won't happen! He's an iron-headed mofo who just shakes off what hits him!

Just want to see an amazing fight, the fix is on anyways, so hopefully gennady knocks out canelo cause it's his one and only chance to win!

[ironbeard]

GGG may end it first half. Canelo can get the win if he goes body early and often, in and out. GGG's number one weakness is to the body. Number 2 is his lack of quickness. Third is age.

It's all such a sad affair, boxing! Before tuning in on the vegas-card tonight, i watched the ahmet öner promoted yildirim vs. 45 year old Lolenga mock (he won but got robbed ofc) & tom schwarz vs. a physically handicapped 11-0 mexican cruiserweight (1st round knockout! Now schwarz who's a joke is ready for a title-shot!), both fights for intercontinental belts! What a fornicating disgrace both events were! Both on german national tv (sport 1 & mdr)! Both so blatantly obvious, utterly stupidly fixed affairs! Painfull to watch! Puke inducing! Whatever!

And now ladies & gentlemen! lets get ready for the third fixed fight of the day! If i wouldn't love the sport so much...🤮

I am definitely concerned with Canelo training for speed and movement. He's full of ish saying he trained for the KO. He's obviously looking to maneuver and counter more this fight. It's going to be more difficult for Golovkin to land, but if he does land, I think Canelo will feel it more without that extra weight cushioning him.

I honestly don't know what this means for Canelo's stamina. Might be improved, might be the same. Canelo with better stamina is definitely dangerous. Uh, I don't know what to think anymore. Man, this is such a great rivalry.

I was good with my prediction. Discounting the fact that I thought Golovkin won the fight more clear this time. Canelo definitely used his legs more this fight and was faster. He also got legit hurt more this fight than anything GGG was able to deliver last fight.

Seems Canelo's stamina was better, but it was only dangerous in-so-far as HBO thinking all his maneuvering and pushing Golovkin back was an indicator of who was winning the fight.
