    How do you feel about his chances in terms of percentage? Do you 45% is too high of a percentage or low?

    It's a 50/50 fight

    No one in history would have a 100% chance of beating GGG even at his age right now.

    Oh I think going off the first fight he has a 50% chance for sure.

    I think he has 45% chance he will test positive for another banned substance.

    He alone has a 25% chance, the judges make up the other 25%. So 50/50 is reasonable.

    Wtf? This is not mathematics. Golovkin is the favourite, but you can’t tell this in percentage.

    Forgot to mention he’s already up on one judges scorecard already.

    There are so many permutations that I've narrowed my deciding factor on Canelos' gas tank. And I still can't decide.

    Essentially correct. However, I think it is quite likely Golovkin will take it out of the hands of the judges.

    I think Canelo has between a 50-60 percent chance of winning. It's not that he's better. It's that he's younger.

    Rooting for Triple G, but I think Canelo takes a legit close decision in a decent fight.

    45% sounds fair to me.
