Is here anyone except me who believes that GGG has a chance?

    I personally think Canelo will be too busy for GGG, but the entire fight depends on how deterred he is by Golovkins power. He's never been hit by anyone close to as ferocious a puncher, and if Golovkin lands clean early I can see the fight turning out in his favour.

    Jacobs and Lemieux to start. Guys like Brook, Geale and Macklin would give him all he could handle, too.

    I don't know what people you're speaking to, but Golovkin should be the heavy favorite. I'm intrigued to see what the opening lines will look like for this fight.

    Canelo still hasn't taken on a true MW since winning the lineal championship. Now he's about to take on the hardest hitting and best MW in the world. Unless he improved his footwork exponentially and learned how to fight off his backfoot during this training session, I don't see him getting past the mid rounds. Golovkin is going to go on a seek and destroy mission in this one, I'm almost certain of it.

    Canelo is a counter-puncher; what's more his work rate (punches thrown) is very low--across all of his fights

    GGG's is very high (nearly double Canelo's, even though GGG has until now been in a higher weight class than Canelo and mean work rate (across all fights and fighters) goes up as you move down weight classes)

    Canelo's fight plan could involve a dramatic increase in his work rate, but i doubt it will; for one thing, he's a counterpuncher, for another, those who watch his fights closely say he gasses early even though he frequently rests during rounds.

    Well................I think Golovkin has a chance to knock a few feathers off El Pollo, get past the criminal referee, judges and boxing commission, knock El Pollo out...............
