    It is entirely possible. This one will be over early. It's a bigger mismatch than most seem to realize.

    How much money have you put down on GGG then?

    Exactly this. Last time I bet it was Kovalev / Ward 1 and I had to ban myself for a month even after Kova won.

    I dont bet big amounts I just prefer to do a multi to boost the price up and if it doesn't come in no big deal!

    About the same time Tiberi beat Toney.

    It is unlikely. However I expect his jab to be very effective. Canelo is shorter with a 2-1/2" less reach then Jacobs. GGG will be closer when throwing the jab and snapping Canelo's head back. Interesting to see how effective Canelo counters GGG's jab.

    Like the good Professor said, this will be shockingly uncompetitive, yes GGG can put him down with a jab, he may even put him down, with a glancing cuffing shot. All the people who think Canelo has even a vague hint of a chance are deluding themselves. Mayweather-McGregor will probably last longer.

    He does. And I see he is practicing his liver shots also.

    It's possible, Golovkin has a very powerful jab, power in all his punches, but Golovkin will be fighting El Pollo's promoter, referee, judges, boxing commission, I think El Pollo will take his pecker and peck Golovkin in the testicles so Weeks can stop the fight on a testicle blow like he did against Kovalev. Oscar's referee will protect El Pollo as much as possible, remember, boxing is very corrupt!
