I see Canelo Alvarez knocking GGG out like Marvelous Marvin did to T.Hearns

That's what Hearns expected to happen if Hagler tried to slug. Boxing is full of surprises that very often shock the experts. For example-who expected Marciano to KO Walcott in the first round of the second fight? Who expected Archie to floor Marciano? Who expected Galento to floor Joe Louis? Or Shmelling to KO him? Odds on all these were probably 200 to 1 yet they happened. So we can talk about probabilities but certainties are the stuff of wishful thinking and nothing more.

 

What's your official fight prediction?

 

The point isn't that they are exact replicas of one another. The point is whether the total certainty you express is logically justifiable or not when we consider just how unpredictable boxing matches can turn out to be.

The truth is that such confident assertions are merely personal opinions based on personal preferences. Unfortunately personal preferences cannot guarantee future reality.

 

That's what people thought about little Archie Moore vs Marciano and Archie stood toe to toe for most of the fight and even managed to floor Marcianio. That's what they thought about Douglas vs Tyson. No one was supposed to be able to walk Hearns down. Both Haggler and Ray proved that wrong. We can speak of likelihoods. But certainties? Unfortunately that is a privilege reserved for the Creator..

 

GGG W TKO 8.

That being said, I don't see how Canelo can't be compared to Hearns in any way, shape, or form. Completely different fighters.

 

You have seen lots of things over the years that never happened.

 

gg is way bigger than canelo.

 

I never claimed that Canelo would even remotely consider mindlessly and carelessly bumrushing Gennady.

BTW
I don't care enough about this to get into extended arguments either.
I simply assumed that a counter view would not be a big issue.

 

Canelo isn't being compared to Hearns.
