    GGG late stoppage. You simply can't keep the man off you for 12 rounds without him hurting you and putting you down. If Canelo gets put down it will shock him and he won't know how to respond.

    My thoughts on the outcome

    1. Two elite level fighters with excellent defences, more often than not goes to the cards.
    2. GGG is an ex soviet union fighter fighting against an adopted Amercian Mexican, and the American media has demonised Russians for the past year, because they hate Trump, so he will not get a fair shake on the cards. Kovalev recently was stopped whilst the referee was watching him being punched in the balls whilst bent over double at just being punched in the balls, for Gods sake.
    3. GGG is 35 and is physically deteriorating and will not be as good as he was 3 years ago, or as destructive.

    So in conclusion I have to go with Canelo UD by 3-4 points as the safe bet on this one.

    I think GGG will hurt Canelo and create a few moments, but Canelo weathers the storm and gets the decision with his judges, and a referee who is about as impartial as Hitler was with the Jews.

    Smith fight was cracking, two genuine world level fighters. Great scorecards thought they were spot on. Great learning fight for Smith, hard fight

    Hearn's cards are lightyears ahead of Warren's, no debate.

    Well, I thoroughly enjoyed the boxing on this side of the Atlantic tonight.

    Thought Smith looked quite rusty tonight, ate too many jabs for me but he was landing the more hurtful shots. I felt he could have finished him in the 11th but he just took his foot off the gas. Good win though.

    BJS was levels above Monroe and he was still only a 6/10. The way he slips and slides when he dodges those shots and then counters is just class. Excellent movement, timing and speed. He's our best pound for pound fighter over here imo.

    First few round Billy looked great. Think the cut and rust made him lose confidence and flare in the later rounds

    But Munroe was awkward and negative spinning off and presenting the back of his head even though Billy obliged anyway

    Canelo on pts for me. All Bout timing. GGG declining Caneko improving.

    Billy would need another fight at least before even trying to be competitive with these two.

    Canelo has very good combinations which will hurt Golovkin. However his feet don't move fast enough to avoid him. He tends to stay still too much.

    I think Golovkin will grind him down and get him out there late.
