    GGG can't land much power on Canelo. The best he can do is use his jab and hope he gets enough credit for it and wins a UD.

    Another fighter who improved Stamina significantly was Miguel Cotto. Stamina is very possible to improve on. More cardio, less lifting, and train for endurance.

    Not true at all. Some fighters only know how to fight coming forward. When fighters who only know how to come forward are very weary of their opponents offense they are hesitant to throw punches even when the opponent if cornered. For reference watch JCCjr-Canelo, GGG-Canelo, and JoJo vs Russell.

    I also think it is up to GGG to make adjustments this go around. Canelo seemed to make the better adjustments in the second half of the first fight, getting his timing down and landing some great counter shots.

    I think some feints might do GGG well. Fake a right hand after the jab, get Canelo to commit to the counter, then combo off that miss.

    I don't care what adjustments Golovkin makes, he is not going to knock out Alvarez. The only question is whether one of the fighters will win a clear decision.

    I agree with Ward's analysis that the fighter with more tools usually does better in the rematch, and their is the question of Golovkin's age. At the same time, Golovkin was the ring general in there and looked like with less tentativeness could have fought a better version of the first fight's strategy. I don't know.

    i think it will be around a clear 6-4 for canelo with a couple rds that could go either way. ggg cant improve on his last performance. if he improves strategically or technically, his physical drop off will negate those improvements and set him back to where he was. i saw him too slow vs vanes to be able to outbox canelo, i just dont see it.

    Yeah Ward knows all about rematches He lost the first fight but the suspect judges gave him a bogus win.
    In the rematch he hired his own referee who gave him carte blanche to foul as he wished with no danger or DQ. Mard has NEVER legitimately beaten Kovalev

    Golovkin is a technical boxer, technician boxers usually win.

    What GGG needs to do is WORK THE BODY!!! Something he absolutely failed to do in the first fight. He needs to follow the right hand with that left hook to the body and then take it upstairs when Canelo drops them hands.

    Uh, he's telling the truth. Now if you don't think being a 36 year old middleweight is a handicap you need to go to a figure skating site

    How can you see with Canelos nut sack on your forehead? Oh that's right, steroids shrink'em up.
