    This fight will be like Canelo vs Kirkland only this time Canelo will know what its like to have the shoe on the other foot.

    Canelo has a weakness and its more than obvious when his opponent moves around and boxes him Like Floyd and Lara did. If you don't think GGG can box like this then watch the Lemieux fight and over the first 3-4 rounds GGG picked him off with just the jab. Lara had the right idea but failed to throw any meaningful punches and his workrate was his undoing, not Canelos boxing ability.

    GGG is bigger and has the best jaw in the business. Thinking Canelo is going to turn into superman all of a sudden is just plain ridiculous. Yes, he will land his shots, but only because GGG will be there for it and the fact that he is fast and a good fighter,but he isn't going to stop or even drop GGG so get that out of your head.

    Who has an iron jaw that Canelo stopped? Failed to catch up and hurt a dehydrated shell of a fighter in JCC jnr and failed to stop an aging Cotto. These two names dont have the jaw that GGG has, and when Canelo landed his best shots they were only point collectors and not knockout drops. GGG wins this by severe pummeling. This will go 9 rounds maybe 10 when the collective damage sets in and Canelo fades badly.

    I prefer Gillette razors myself! What is Occam's razor? Is that the new fangled on line razor company? Usually the most obvious razor to buy is the correct razor to buy!

    All I hope is its a fair fight with no controversy & the etter mam om the night getting the win BUT !!
    Previous fights involving the NSAC , Vegas officials & Oscar leave m wondering if we'll ever see a fight without contraversy again

    after the cotto fight I was positive ggg would beat canelo but now I'm not so sure. tbh I think it's gonna be bad night for ggg fans. My gut feeling is ggg will win the fight but the decision will go to the golden boy which makes me sick. I'm praying to the heavens that I'm wrong. I really wish everyone was picking ggg so I could put these bad feelings out of my mind but it seems more and more people are picking canelo. If I had to bet my own money I would just bet with heart , ggg by late stoppage haha

    So GGG will last longer than Khan, but not as long as Liam Smith. I genuinely can't wait to see this.

    Yep same here,Tim Bradley just said he was going with Canelo and then looked at Canelos last fight with Chavez and thought this guy hasn't improved much and that as good as he is at bobbing and weaving GGG is gonna throw a lot of punches and GGG only has to land one,thought that was bob on
