    Uh, dude. If Clenelo does beat GGG, that's exactly what he will be doing. He will be beating up a 40-year old. GGG is not shot, but he has slowed down considerably. However, any real boxing fan should be able to see why Clenelo is now willing to fight GGG a third time after approximately 4-years after their second fight. He needs to rebound against a name opponent and who better than GGG? A fighter I, and many people, had him losing to both times. In the eyes of his fans, he will get back on the winning track against the "feared" GGG.

    There are three possible scenarios in this fight. 1.) GGG will have to KO Clenelo to win without any controversy. 2.) If GGG manages to knock him down a couple of times throughout the fight, he may get a draw. 3.) Even if GGG were to win the fight in the eyes of the fans, I think boxing will ensure that Clenelo wins because GGG is on his way out and the "cash cow" is still relatively in his prime. Thus the gravy train continues for all the vultures out there who are making money off of him.

    I'm still rooting for GGG, though. I despise Clenelo and his cheating, shitty, and vulgar persona.

    I get the Canelo hate but don't shoot your credibility in the foot.

    We need to put out another wellness/mental health check for @22JM . He's been missing since Bivol had his way with Clenelo like a football jock and a freshman.

    Credibility? Anyway, no shade towards Canelo just stating facts.

    $85 to watch Clenelo who just lost 10 rounds to Bivol -- fight a 40yr old that he's already lost to twice.

    I hope GGG breaks his jaw and forces a corner stoppage this time. Anyways will catch the YouTube highlights the next day.

    Its Obvious !!!!! Where is the fight taking place? Vegas Where were the 2 previous fights held ? Vegas. Both ended in blatant robberies giving decisions to Canelo Why will this one be any different? Nothing was done about the other two blatant robberies.
    I would LOVE to see a GGG-Canelo fight in a neutral Venue, with neutral judges with both in their prime NO one from Vegas or the NSAC allowed. Gennadiy would give the Ginger Pretender a schooling that the schooling Bivol gave him look like a close fight
    Trouble is Ginger hasn't got the stones to do that so I will not be wasting my $$$$$$$$$$ on it Go GGG knock the Clen Kid out cold
