    Great fight. Not sure who wins. I might lean ever so slightly towards GGG , but, I really don't like the way he rarely changed tactics when faced with adversity. LaMotta would give him plenty of adversity to think about.

    Been done before. Golovkin is bigger, hits harder and is a better boxer. LaMotta has huge heart but Golovkin is not the kind of guy that you can overcome with heart. That will get you sent to the infirmary.

    I'll take GGG in this one in a very entertaining bout which could see LaMotta take some beating in the end.

    Be great fight

    Lamotta achieves what Canelo couldn't and stops him.

    Both had iron chin, applied great pressure and possessed stamina and a high workrate. The thing that would have made the difference between the two for me was power. GGG had more, and the Kazakh would have landed the heavier punches and won on points after an all-out slugfest.

    I feel the same, what happens when GGG can't keep the fight at distance and has LaMotta in his grill for 15 rounds.
