    Au contraire, it's Canelo that has had stamina problems throughout his career. All that extra muscle he has added may improve his punch resistance some but it's not going to help his gas tank. I say that by the 6th Canelo is gasping for air and GGG has him outta there by the 9th. It'll be a great fight while it lasts though.

    Canelo's combination punching, speed and accuracy will be his keys to victory in this fight not his power.

    It's a given that Golovkin has one of the best chins in boxing, Canelo whilst heavy handed isn't a one punch guy so it'll be the above his key to victory. If Saul can continously beat Golovkin to the punch, putting combinations together he has a chance and will get GGG'S respect.

    I'm looking forward to seeing who is the stronger of the two fighters close in....who has the better core strength.

    "Feather fisted" Andre Ward rocked big bad Kovalev completely. So I'm sorry I don't buy OP's logic.

    GGG is not Kovalev, in fact Sanchez says GGG rocked Kovalev to..

    Canelo seems to have stamina problems & fights in spurts when allowed, GGG wont allow this. It seems he has bulked up for this fight , not great for stamina, maybe Canelo is looking for an early Ko...should be a great fight ,unlike the nonsense Fluid served up last week!

    Not a good comparison at all. Ward could only hurt Kovalev after Kovalev had gassed. But since GGG is a high stamina fighter I don't see that being a possibility.

    He has enough pop to gain GGG's respect. Which is why I think G will fight the most disciplined fight of his pro career and win a decision.

    I'm not denying that Alvarez has exhibited stamina problems in the past -but- Alvarez isn't the one who will be on the down side of 35 and has looked like **** in his last two fights..

    I think the keys for Alvarez are to take Bumlovkin's jab away and find a home for that left hook to the body.

    Agreed. Alvarez must neutralize Bumlovkin's jab or else he's gonna have a long night..
