Richardson feels Golovkin doesn’t have the experience that Canelo has.

    Your the guy who says a guy coming in 171 vs an opponent who is 170 is massively outweighing somebody lol take a look at any average fight in a division it's usually the same difference so is everybody who weighs 1lb or more massively outweighing there opponent or just Alvarez?

    I'm fairly confident that if someone was able to take the first 3-4 rounds in a fight with GGG. They will win the problem is critical cause winning those rounds are the hardest. It's similar to fighting Floyd you need a solid cushion before the second half of the fight

    Jacobs fought GGG to survive. He made no attempt to initiate the action and was put on his arse. This is why he lost the way he did. It wasn't GGGs best performance but Jacobs didn't exactly make it a fun fight.

    If Jacobs had gone for the KO he would have been KOed no doubt. He fought a smart fight but he didn't deserve that decision. GGG doesn't deserve criticism either but he doesn't care, he has Wrangello where he wants him. It's good that this fight was made.

    On Khan, the egg chinned assassin. Seriously, this guy would get KTFO by Special K unless he ran for 12 rounds, but that's not Khan's thing and why he keeps getting tagged with decent pinches. He's had this done to him a few times now so don't doubt Kell has the stopping power. It would be a fun fight, any Khan fight is interesting with a chin that fragile and admittedly a very good offense.

    More experience fighting washed up welterweights.

    It's great to have names like Mosley, Khan, and Cotto on your resume, but they weren't genuine challenges, they were has beens cashing out.

    He was out boxed by Mayweather and to a lesser degree Lara, so what? Lots of fighters have been, it didn't make them any better.

    Given the nature of this match up, I like Golovkin's experience against faster, younger, hard punching opponents.

    I don't get the hate for Canelo. He's 26 and fought everybody. People said he was ducking GGG but here he is fighting him. He fought Mayweather. He fought Lara whom everyone said he wouldn't fight. What more do you want? GGG didn't fight Ward and that fight SHOULD have been made.

    I have not made my pick yet but I don't see this as an automatic win for GGG. I can understand why GGG is slightly favored though. Canelo has always impressed me since I saw how technically correct he was at age 19.

    Dude outside of Khan and Mayweather who was a former unified champ at the weight there is no fighter you can name that Alvarez (Massively) outweighed.
