Hard to bet against Golovkin in this fight but in reality is it a 55-45 type fight. My only concern is Golovkin carrying an injury like bad knee(s) as he seems to be content on just sitting down on his shots for this fight.

It will certainly be interesting to see if Canelo can slip counter Golovkin's jab and be wary of the follow up. If Canelo can survive the first few rounds and win them then Canelo could get the decision but I wanna see how he reacts to an intense GGG attack from rd 1.

 

Bro, both ggg and canelo are many levels above both Taylor (too many levels above Taylor) and that Hopkins who couldn't beat JT WITH TWO ATTEMPTS. Both ggg and canelo are vastly Under rated by many on here. It seems them both being GREAT ELITE VERY TOP P4P level talents for some reason makes other fighters lesss than they were.

Accepting their greatness does nothing to the greats prior to them. Hopkins will always be a great, but trashing ggg because of his resume (hops MW reign was far weaker) while pumping hops and company is silly. Hops greatest mw win was vs tito, that's a fact. After tito the number 2 guy is probably odh who got shredded (fact) by sturm. The 3 is in all likelihood echols who was a huge disappointment.

Fyi: Just because greater fighters come along doesn't erase our part greats

 

Bhop that got robbed by taylor twice would shutout canelo.

 

Ishida has never been TKOd before or after this fight...

 

I think so too.

 

if he does truly win the rematch, then he will lose in controversy. But i dont see that happening, he will lose again and maby this time a draw wont be controversy enough.

 

My thoughts on the rematch if either of you are interested:

1. I got Canelo also. The first fight was very close, and Golovkin isn't getting any younger. Plus Canelo knows he can take Golovkin's power now which should help him.

2. However, this is really a 50-50 sort of fight, maybe 60-40, but it could legitimately go either way. Before the first fight, there was an argument that Golovkin's power would be too much or that Canelo could easily outbox him. But now we know that they are close in level, and any objective analysis will surely conclude that a good night or a bad night for one guy could make all the difference. Or even something like a cold.

3. After writing all that I've got to make a prediction. I think it will still be controversial (big fights always are), but I think Canelo does significantly better than last time and gets a close UD or MD. Maybe one too-wide card a la Byrd and two close ones.

 

I don't see Canelo taking the rematch

So, you may well be right

 

I have Golovkin, more emphatically this time.

He's got the less adjusting to do, and it's clear that his game plan was superior the first time round. What I think Golovkin will switch up:

1) He's going to come into camp in shape this time. He was soft at the start of the last camp and that's the first time I ever saw GGG even slightly out of sorts.

2) He knows Canelo's best shot is ineffective. I think he's going to rip to the body this time and eat the counters and compound Canelo's gassing problems, which he still has not solved.

3) He's not going to start so tentatively and he's going to go pedal to the metal for all 12 rounds if necessary, because he knows what to expect. Giving the first 3 rounds away is what hurt him the most imho.
