    GGG within 5rds
    I don't think even Canelo's overhand right will keep GGG at bay.

    Golovkin likes to go to the body. Canelo is going to be coughing his liver up by the 9th.

    GGG TKO round 8, after an even looking couple of rounds GGG just takes control, Canelo gets tagged going forward and tagged going backwards and busted up along the way. I think we will see a towel in the ring.

    GGG fans are like that cause of the unnecessary hate he has gotten. I wasn't even a fan of him until probably a year or two ago. The dude is for real.

    Yeah golovkin has power but it's his boxing skills, footwork, balance, punch variation, timing and his jab which separates him from guy's which only have power. On top of this he seems to have a great chin too.

    I'm just barely going with Golovkin. I feel Golovkin has the ability to score a knockout if the fight goes to decision I give Canelo a good chance of winning. I think Canelo will be able to land a lot on Golovkin its just a matter of how well he holds up to Golovkin's power shots.

    Alvarez has made better pure boxers than GGG look there career worse, which is why a key point was speed GGG imo doesn't have the speed to keep up. Everyone will bring up Canelos struggles and say if so and so did that then get can but the thing that gives Alvarez trouble is speedy defensive fighters and even then outside of Maywether all of them got outboxed.

    If faster more mobile boxers who predicate there game on jabbing and working off that get held to career lows vs Canelo why would you assume a slower less mobile and not as skilled boxer can beat him in a boxing match. I'm a power match Golovkin probably takes it but skills trump power most days and Alvarez is the more skilled guy along with more experienced and faster.
    GGG really just has power him cutting off the ring doesn't matter in a fight were the guy isn't going to run, having a good jab doesn't matter if you can't catch your target.

    Could be as we only have to remember what he did last time he was on foreign soil against Brook,a bit messy but he was right to do that as I believe Brook was up on the cards,Brook survived an absolute bomb in round one that would sparked most out,Kell Brook has one good chin on him,does Canelo take those shots as well as Brook,we don't really know.
