    The overwhelming media scoring the fight had him winning

    That has more weight than punch stats and he landed and threw more punches anyway

    So what’s your point?

    There is more to fights than who is moving forward. I am not convinced that if GGG is more aggressive he wins. I think it is a gamble. The more aggressive he is the more conclusive the win will be for either since he will take a chance and Canelo will have opportunities for counter. If GGG wanted to be aggressive in the first fight he could have, but he held back and let Canelo fight that fight. Openings create openings. If GGG comes out like Hagler and Canelo comes out like Hearns, we will see a short fight but a great fight. I don't think either guy has that in them.

    GGG is gonna get started sooner this time. I think he knows once he makes Clenelo gas out, he has to go for broke.

    Yeah but when you fight another good fighter something different happens. He might win, but he might get hurt. More countering opportunities. I think he might start earlier, but let's see what happens if Canelo can counter him. Either way the faster the start the more chances of stoppage either way.
