Can canelo really beat Golovkin?

No. Not in a fair fight. That's why all the Canelo fan's (aka Mayweather fans) want him to fight at 155. They want Canelo to have every possible advantage. Even Canelo knows this.

 

Well at 160 GGG has the advantage, and that's what they're both angling for.

THis is a 90/10 fight IMO. Even though GGG has been facing "bums", anyone with a decent pair of eyes can see the guy is super talented.

Other than the hypocrite Golovstans annoying the hell out of potential GGG fans, I really don't understand how anyone cannot be a fan of this guy.

 

Canelo CAN beat Golovkin, at this end there is potential for most guys to beat another guy on a given day. Do I expect Canelo to beat Golovkin? Nah. At least so long as team Canelo don't manage to keep dodging until Golovkin starts deteriorating.

Not sure if serious? 155 is not a weight class - middle weight is 155-160, anywhere in there SHOULD be allowed. Canelo doesn't have to "move up", the ridiculousness is expecting GGG to move down when he already weighs in within the constraints of middleweight's requirements.

 

No

 

Pathetic caveman feet, cant cut the ring off and has no jab. Only chance to win is by lucky haymaker or robbery.

 

I just do not see Canelo winning.

 

Canelo has a similar style to Marquez where he throws his combos in spots. They need to get set and can just do it off the fly. Marquez had better footwork imo. Both used the left hand/jab in a similar manner.

 

hohum the latest alt to the rescue ...

 

No. He would get Khanned the f out

 

I believe so, Alvarez is the faster boxer, better defensive fighter, and more fluid in counter combinations.

GGG is a good fighter but overrated, 155/60 I think he gets outboxed in a tough fight. People act like Alvarez is easy to outbox yet outside of Mayweather that hasn't worked and GGG is not the type of athlete physically to exploit Canelos weaknesses.

 

I would give 2-1 odds GGG wins the fight. That means Alvarez has a chance.
