    Just on outright wins

    Smith
    Canelo
    Monroe

    Shade over 8/1. You can add in a couple of the 'bankers' to make it just over 9/1.

    GGG late TKO. I think many people are sleeping on his actual boxing skills and only focused on his power. I think he will eventually wear Canelo down and the referee will stop it, round 9 or 10.

    Another close fight I think between BJS and Monroe. I think Bill's possibly got into Monroe's head this week and it will cost him the fight. BJS on points.

    Smith's potential is still relatively unknown but I think he stops Skoglund mid fight via the body.

    I'm looking forward to all the boxing tonight.

    I predict Golovkin to systematically wear down Canelo. Canelo has had issues with good jabs. GGG has a great jab. Canelo will have real real problems with Golovkin's jab that I have no doubt. Golovkin wont throw hands with Canelo because he'd lose that battle. He'll stalk Canelo while intelligently picking his shots behind his jab. Canelo might be more skilled but Golovkin is technically superior and will fight smart big time in this one.

    Couldn't agree anymore with every word you said in your post if I tried m8, exactly how I see it.

    Golovkin to win inside the 12. He and Sanchez will be well aware of the lack of skill the Las Vegas judges have with simple arithmetic or, as they call it, math.

    Canelo will light up the arena in the early rounds, every shot he lands will have the crowd screaming, but once he starts to slow and feels the weight of Golovkins punches he'll run out of ideas.

    Either the ref or Canelos corner will save him from being KO'd around the 9th-10th.

    I can see Canelo having some success throughout the fight. In fact, with his counter punching, speed and overall boxing skills I see him winning 3-4 rounds during the fight. However, I cannot see Canelo with his feet being able to avoid Golovkin's jab forever, which is consistent and very hard. From here I expect Golovkin to break him down and stop him in the 9th round. I can't see Canelo having the stamina either to keep up with Golovkin's pace.

    Very hard to call. I thought at first GGG late. As I'm getting closer I can see him taking it on points. I believe it will be a great fight which could go either way. Can't wait.

    Fight is off, a shame.

    This card was bad anyway but now it's really awful.

    Really want Triple G to win, he is my favourite fighter.

    GGG stoppage /ko around the 10th however I won't be surprised if we see a clinic master performance from Canelo in defeating an old and declining GGG.

    Such an exciting contest I don't really know what is going to happen to be honest.
