    GGG looked very powerful vs Murata, his punches sounded like gunshots vs Murata.

    I'd favor Canelo by UD at this point but man GGG doesn't look half bad for a 40 year old, I could see a KO for GGG.

    Yeah, a ton of filler early on, but the training camps and sparring are what adds up.

    Wow, surprised to see Canelo has jumped to a 37-23-1 lead.

    GGG is 40 and Canelo is going to be extra saucy for the 3rd fight coming off a loss.

    Or maybe his confidence has been dented, and he'll be unsure of himself, or... he'll feel like he has to go a extra mile this time, overcompensate and get wreckless or make mistakes while trying too hard, combined with GGG possibly being stronger, finally not having to make 160. He might end up walking onto something huge. Or maybe GGG will gas out quicker and be sluggish. There's countless variables that need to be taken into consideration for this fight.

    GGG is 40. At 40 all your attributes have vanished and you are left with nothing, but your power/strength. So yea, if he lands a big bomb he may rock Canelo and then finish him off. But other than that, not much you can do. Especially with extra saucy version of Canelo imminent.

    He just beat the physically strong as an ox iron chinned Ryota Murata senseless at 40. 40 year old diminished GGG is still the best Middleweight in the world, and I would pick no one at 160 to beat him. So let's try to keep things in the proper perspective.

    As long as The Den of Iniquity (Vegas & the NSAC) are involved GGG is down 5 points before the opening bell rings. I would love to be there & watch the fight ANYWHERE but Vegas We'll never see a 100% fair fight for GGG in Vegas against Ginger We all know it but there aint a damn thing we can do about it except BOYCOTT the charades

    ROFLMAO According to Shadow IsaL PimpC & the other Ginger Nuts the Bivol fight was razor close & then they wonder why no one takes them seriously

    Well IB you got to realize its going to take a miracle for GGG to get a legitimate win in Vegas against GINGER
    It really need two polls
    Poll 1 .......The LEGITIMATE result of a 100% fairly judged contest with the better man getting the win OR
    Poll2 ........ The usual Vegas decision where corruption seems to rule

    The unknown is what makes the fight interesting.

    But, didn't Bivol just get a legit W over Canelo in Vegas? :thinking:

    oh please, one loss with his resume in 9 years doesn't move him from the top spot so easily despite your willingness to kick him out so soon.
