    I say it does make a big difference, GGG on paper should easily win this fight. Thing is that first round, is going to tell alot about the story of the fight. One guy is going to feel the power and then decide to keep pressing forward or back off.

    Golovkin might play possum for the first two rounds. Nothing about Lemieux indicates he'll win, imo.

    This is already considered a one sided fight but, so was Postol vs Matthysse.
    I give Lemieux a chance if he fights smart and his stamina holds up.

    Well knowing how much Gennady goes to the body and how hard he hits, coupled with Lemieux's high guard, I'm assuming it's going to be hard for David to keep his stamina up while getting his liver pounded.

    For some reason I don't think that'd even shock me too much.

    Hopefully he has been studying the tapes and knows that GGG is the "ultimate predator" in the ring. He has to come to fight forward and have inside defense similar to James Toney, maybe not that great but 10% would help him survive.

    Golovkin did appear to punch himself out a bit after round 3. Hope he learned something from that.

    And Mayweather has a ridiculously good ring IQ but can't speak in complete sentences. Go figure.
