    His accuracy and timing is of 154 and punching power is of 160 - 175.
    Golovkin has not changed over time in technique. And his speed and endurance now is questinable.

    It's his only hope.

    There is no way on earth that Canelo can hurt GGG.

    The way Canelo wins, if he could, would be to catch an old GGG with shot speed and reflexes and outbox him.

    It's possible. But not sure it can happen until a few more years go by.

    Canelo isn't a big puncher. He has a couple highlight reel KOs...so did Pernell Whitaker too.

    Canelo has decent power.

    That's the only way he can win, because GGG is the bigger puncher, but alvarez has much quicker hands.

    I also believe he's reached that level, but we know ggg will keep throwing bombs and will have the height and reach and power advantage. Canelo has enough power to be a threat to any mw, his skills have reached incredible levels.

    His talents have been fully utilized now

    No doubt

    GG doesn't have the huge size advantage Junior did so he might get it worse

    No way. Golokvin is gonna use his jab like he did against Lemieux. Canelo for the most part only fights in mid range. Golovkin can fight mid and long range.

    Come September, Ginger is going to get his welcome to the big leagues.

    I'm hoping that he makes a funny face like Stevens the first time he goes down :)

    They notice it, they just don't like to talk about it. They'll be having nightmares about it though come September . .

    Yeah but bare in mind Chavez Jr isn't Floyd Mayweather, Chavez is there to be hit, same as Liam Smith.

    Out boxing GGG will be Canelo's only option as he doesn't have the power to bother GGG.

    I can definitely envisage a scenario where Canelo's speed combined with his great defense could pull off the upset against GGG. I can also envisage GGG steamrolling through Canelo to a late stoppage victory.

    It's a pick em' fight.

    No different than Golovkin's jab against his punching bag Lemiux.
