    Can you stand up and swing your fists?

    This is literally the only thing causing me pause. Golovkin has nothing to lose here. This is likely his last fight and there is no one on the planet (except unfortunately Golovkin) that doesn't believe that Golovkin at the very minimum needs to badly hurt Canelo to even have a hope.

    I don't have a sense of where Golovkin's mind is. You would think he would be in seek and destroy mode... But I also thought that would be his approach to the 2nd fight when Canelo stood in the pocket the whole damn fight.

    Basically I don't know if we are getting a JMM when he KO'd Pacquiao, or a Roy Jones Jr when he fought Tarver the 3rd time and just fought to not get KTFO in one of the saddest performances I have seen.

    If you wish. I jumped out of my seat and started screaming when Mosley rocked Floyd. As did others.

    :lol:

    The theater went wild when Pac knocked Thurman down.

    I would very much like to see the ginger boy take a mat nap. It would the end of a good career for GGG.

    No way Is GGG getting knocked out at 168. Dropped by constant body shots? Maybe.... Losing on points? Absolutely.

    He needs to knock the F out of this ginger mouse and smash him to bits. Bivol hurt Canelo. 168 GGG hits just as hard as Bivol at LHW.

    I'm buzzing for it.

    I dunno, man. Golovkin is old and Clenelo hits much harder at 168 than he does at 160.

    What I meant by comparing him to RJJ was not that he would fight to avoid getting ktfo, but that he would try to box Canelo again and risk losing again going to the scorecards.

    Where do you come up with this, lol? And even if it’s true, it’s truly a shame that he stayed at 160 for so long. AnY bOdy FrOm 154 tO 168……(as long as they meet me at 160)

    I didn't notice much promotion for this fight until this past Monday. They even had a huge electronic billboard next to the Freeway.

    It should really pick up this weekend.

    You all need to get over that 154 to 168lb thing. The point Able was trying to make was GGG is a bad m-f, that could probably beat anybody in either of those divisions, maybe KO any of them. He wasn't far off. Canelo, the guy that should have lost to GGG twice did go up and unify. GGG'S going after him again and feeling great 168lbs.

    If someone could answer this question, we could make a rough estimate about the winner of GGG vs Canelo 3:

    Who wins Murata vs Plant ? Or who is better, Murata or Plant?

    If Murata is better than Plant, we could say Golovkin knocks out Canelo, because Canelo lost to Bivol too, and he looked pathetic. It means Canelo is not the same boxer that fought GGG for the second time.
