    What will it say about Canelo if he can't beat a 36 year old Golovkin?

    Have the fight in Kazakhstan and you shall see how confident these Canelo's supporters be.

    Golovkin is just never on Pac's level.

    Oh for sure,wasted years in Germany didn’t help.
    Have you seen the difference between the German days GGG as appose to one trained and taught by Abel Sanchez?
    I know he can bug sometimes but Abel Sanchez is one of those rare teachers in boxing,just look at Gassiev KO in his last fight,touch to the head with the right to set up the left to the body as much an Abel thing as a Golovkin thing,this type of combination I want to see from Golovkin as well as those over the top looping punches that got Rubio out of there.

    Honestly I know this isn’t the case but you’d swear he was holding back in his last few fights,I’d rather see him go all out against Canelo like he did to Brook and either win or get KOd trying lol.
    Imo him and Abel were too concerned with work rate of every second instead on focusing on quality.

    This. People keep pretending that Canelo is some green rookie just reaching his prime when he's been a pro for 10+ years and an elite fighter for at least 7 years. Canelo reached his peak and stopped improving years ago. The rematch is still a 50/50 fight.

    Well Pacquiao couldn't beat a 40 year old Marquez in fact he got KTFO and it just prove that Marquez was just as great as him

    **** like this just cracks me up, he couldve said that before the first fight, but not after G already beat Canelo.
    Specialy the “might win easy” part. Yeah, like, Canelo might turn up in a body armor and head gear and Golovkin might decide to box only with his left whole night, who knows, right?
    Calling yourself an expert and publicly sharing your “knowledge” used to require certain sense of responsibility.

    There was nothing easy about what Canelo did in the first fight and his whole game plan was/is based on hopes of Golovkin aging fast and not being himself enough to get the KO. Thats a future HOF in his prime.
    Who’s overrated?

    'Bout right. I had Canelo 8-2-2 the first time. Adelaide Byrd was close. GGG's only chance is a big punch. Otherwise he's going to be embarrased. And I like Golovkin MUCH more than Canelo.

    Golovkin just needs to prove that he is able to adjust. If not, he is overrated indeed.

    He is an come forward, offensive style fighter, it's his destiny to be KOd.

    I had Golovkin winning the fight 8 rounds to 4 easily, Harold Lederman had Golovkin winning 8 rounds to 4, Paulie had Golovkin winning 9 rounds to 3, Nacho Beristain had Golovkin winning, the vast majority had Golovkin winning, Oscar will own the judges, referee and boxing commission, Bob Bennett will be El Pollo's cheerleader............this will be a very corrupt fight like the first one.............

    Let's put it this way. If you took every boxing prediction Atlas ever made, went to the bookie and took the other side, you'd be a multi-millionaire now.

    Atlas is an odd fellow. he had GGG winning the first fight 118-110 but in their next fight 8 months later he might lose easy. WTF

    He must be trying to get back in the good graces of the boxing establishment.
