    Appreciate them both and the fact that they are set to give us another classic. Both Canelo and GGG have done a lot for the sport and deserve respect.

    I do respect them both I will always appreciate Canelo's boxing ability and I love watching him fight. But there is no denying that he is a cheat and that they did GGG dirty.

    It's less likely this time round considering the second fight was closer and that was 4yrs ago.
    I think what makes this a little more interesting is the fight being at 168lb and maybe the last throw of the dice for GGG.
    I hope it's competitive and without controversy but I doubt the latter.

    Hey bro, he's 40 years old. He's supposed to get KOED by super Canelo. Canelo cant change history, the fights speak for themselves. Only the rarest of odd balls think Canelo didn't lose the first fight, and the Majority think GGG won the 2nd fight. So those fights are set in stone. If GGG loses at 40 he loses at 40, but GGG'S got something for Canelo. GGG has a score to settle and an alibi all in one. What's going to happen when Canelo gets hurt and falls behind against a 40 year old GGG? Mentally he will be ruined. So much for Mr. PFP.

    Canelo is not a cheat, that was simple meat contamination. The draw in their first fight was very fair, that one could have gone either way, and Canelo beat GGG fair and square in the rematch. There's nothing that you should be complaining about, don't be brainwashed by the GGG fan propaganda. Canelo beat him fair and square and isn't a cheat.

    What makes this interesting is if GGG will be more desperate trying to push for the knockout. If he throws caution to the wind he leaves himself vulnerable and could get caught and hurt by Canelo who specializes in thwarting over-aggressive opponents with well timed counter punches. Should be fun to see how it plays out and what GGG's strategy will be. It is sure to be a Big Drama Show in September!

    Don't forget 114-114 v Mayweather and 115-113 across the board against Bivol.

    115-113 Bivol was an acceptable score, though it could have been wider. 114-114 vs Mayweather was not an acceptable score, but having that a draw is no worse than the people who claim Mayweather won every round which is absurd. It was an 8-4ish / 9-3ish Mayweather win, 7-5 Mayweather if you give a couple swing rounds to Canelo, but scoring it a draw is too much, Mayweather clearly won.

    He's only toast if it goes to the judges. Canelo will hire the Adylide Byrde triplett's.

    I agree GGG may decide his only route to victory would be trying to hurt Canelo early which maybe risky. The only issue I have is Canelo although backed up in previous fights never looked like he was close to getting dropped. I think the higher weight makes it a bit more interesting and that might benefit the heavier handed GGG. I thing it's an interesting fight whomever wins.

    I can’t see either guy getting KTFO. They really know each other very well.

    A KD is very likely but no TKO or KO

    Sounds like your talking about the scores that should have been GGGS wins over Canelo.
