    Interesting question. Whose chin holds up, and whose doesn't? Or do both remain sturdy?

    Neither are getting knocked out. Close decision either way.

    Are you sure that no one's whiskers will give way? Alvarez looks weight drained.

    And Golovkin? Well, he's not exactly a spring chicken, is he - and we know that chins don't get sturdier as they age.

    Since Canelo's not on the Clen anymore, there you go!

    Gasnelo will make his long awaited return tomorrow and he'll have....

    No KO from either but if GGG throws caution to the wind I can see Canelo Team throwing in a towel, maybe a diseased cow or even Oscar in a dress just to stop the action:headbash

    Golovkin has been hit with bigger shots than Canelo ever has - bigger shots than Canelo can throw, mind you - and he was fine. The question mark (if any) is over Canelo. Actually I think Alvarez has a much better chin at 160 than 154. He looked good last time.

    none, most likely, they both iron chin.

    This seems to me to be the most likely outcome, if there is a stoppage. I think it's likely that the action gets halted, but as you say, it seems unlikely that Alvarez would KTFO.

    One of these mandibles will get busted up, no question.

    I think if someone does crack, it will be Golovkin.

    Golovkin is much lighter for this fight, doubt he will be able to take punches the same way he did in the first fight, but he's also quicker on his feet, he'll be in-and-out much quicker.
