    FACTS
    Lets begin
    1. GGG beat him the first fight and everyone knows it.
    2. Canelo is 27 and risks losing his drawing power if he gets beat, especially if he gets stopped
    3. GGG is 36 on his way out. He really has nothing to lose at this point.
    4. GGG just fought whereas Canelo is coming off a knee surgery (minor) and has been inactive since their last fight
    5. I expect the judges to be much more fair given the controversy involved. Well at least one judge we know is gonna give it 9-3 canelo LOL
    6. GGG is the bigger stronger man, as evidenced in the first fight. GGG can fight better as he started slow, failed to cut off the ring as Canelo escaped to the right. These two things GGG can easily correct and basically win the fight.
    7. Canelo fought the best fight of his life. He looked sharp, threw great combos, showed great defense. Of course he gassed but thats what happens when you cut weight. Watch Canelo training footage he looks bloated this time around. He cant perform better than the first fight.
    8. GGG knows Canelo cant hurt him, especially after landing flush several times to no avail

    I agree he's definitely taking a bigger risk than GGG. But I also think Canelo himself sees it as less of a risk than their first bout. He knows Golovkin is one more year older, and had another training camp and fight since then too. He also knows he can hang with GGG, didn't get KTFO and even outboxed him in spells (not enough to earn the draw IMO for the record) so he will have gained confidence from the first fight.

    Then again, being Clenbluterol-free might make him less confident now.

    Totally agree with everything and full respect to Canelo because of it.
    I think the same with the judges,after the controversy of the first fight I expect and hope to see it done better this time.
    I can’t see Canelo getting a KO and I’ve never seen him fight dirty like Ward.
    Golovkin does have to solve the riddle though as Canelo was pretty elusive and I don’t expect that to change,kill or be killed might be his mentality this time.

    Pretty good analysis re, ggg doesnt have much to lose except for his titles lol, point number 4 is a good one, ggg more active going into the fight, should be sharp & full of confidence.

    Gennady wasn't really the bigger man against Canelo.

    Has Clenelo become Cleanelo?

    Will Golden Boy pull out all the tricks to favour Clenelo again?

    And one can argue because of that, GGG faces an uphill battle with the judges and Las Vegas

    Lol and you accuse me of going over the top.truth is they both Middleweights,at 154lbs Canelo had such an extreme weight cut,when Eubank Jnr lost his pen I remember Hearn saying Canelo wanted to move up to 160 then but Oscar wanted him to fight Smith,Canelo looked so pissed off on those scales that fight lol.
