    Maybe Canelo should move up to light heavy and whoop Kovalev like Ward did since he's sooooo big!

    People keep talking about fight night weight like this is a huge advantage for Canelo. This only helps him against welterweights and some Jr middleweight. Not a full fledged middleweight who's in his natural weight.

    Trust me; Golovkin benefits coming in lighter

    I suspect they will weigh about the same on fight night, but GGG has a clear height and reach advantage. Could definitely see him doing to Canelo what he did to Lemiuex and just stuffing a hard jab in his face all night.

    Golovkin looks bigger, will be the same weight, I actually think El Pollo will weight more on fight night..............

    I suspect El Pollo will hit Golovkin with a lot of low blows to the testicles, since SOB has made low blow legal...................Weeks probably will be the referee.................we all know the judges and boxing commission will be criminal.............

    Golovkin is taller, that's clear but Canelo is stocky as anything. Neither is really notably bigger than the other.

    I've always said GGG is way bigger than Canelo. Besides his weight, Canelo's "size" is small. He's short, his shoulders/back aren't that big, and his reach is short. Not sure I can give GGG that much credit for beating a man that much smaller moving up in weight.

    Canelo weighed in at 164.5 in his last fight and looked like an Adonis so if he has to cut from that to 160 there's no doubt he'd a natural at the weight

    Brilliant. Absolutely classic. It's starting already.

    Might as well have dispensed with the preamble and just written the last line since this is clearly what the post is all about.
