    I’m a firm believer in that people will believe what they want to believe, ignoring logic and reason.

    I thought it wasn’t close. 9-3, GGG, and had 2 swing rounds. So at worst, 7-5 GGG.

    I can’t see this rematch going any other way.

    ??? Yes but then again the climate in USA is constant uproar RE: Trump & co so this wouldn't get an eyebrow raised!
    I notice how Hopkins is managing to tarnish his standing by worrying & fretting whether GGG is breaking his record...only one Ego bigger than his & that's that little twerp iSAL

    GGG looked fine against Martirosyan.
    Canelo has been off for a year, is he rusty?
    Canelo is CLEARLY no longer on PED's, its visibly apparent.
    Golovkin won the first fight, it wasn't all that close.
    Canelo fought the perfect fight and still lost.
    GGG stupidly fought Canelo's fight, and still won.
    Canelo is on everyone's ****list for the PED thing, no favors will be given.
    The reason for the rematch is occurring is because GGG was robbed of his rightful win, not Canelo.
    If Canelo loses, they can set up a rubber match, make even more money.
    Canelo can't adjust anymore, the only adjustment he can make is take the fight to GGG, which is dangerous.
    GGG only has to make a few subtle adjustments this time around and he'll win even more decisively.

    Golovkin's age didn't bother him a few months ago, he looked sharper than he has in a while.
    Canelo didn't adapt after the Trout, Floyd and Lara performances, he still looked average against Cotto and Khan.
    How can he adapt to a potentially even more aggressive GGG that's going to the body as well? Run faster?
    Canelo has been trying to sort out his stamina since the Austin Trout match, I doubt anything will change.
    If he does sort it out, will he win more rounds early, and gassed worse late and get TKO'd?
    Canelo has always been a pompous arrogant little p****, surrounded by Yes Men in an Echo Chamber that blow smoke up his ass, does he even think he needs to make adjustments?

    Oh yeah, he's so terrified he can barely contain it, he looks like he's going to sprout some psychosomatic rash at any second, falling off his chair, or was it that he was feeling faint momentarily? Not making an eye contact, looking dehydrated and out of it, the fact that he knows he doesn't have a crutch or shall w say performance enhancing advantage to fall back on is literally doing his head in, he's losing it.

    Not sure what the rest of you are seeing quite frankly.


    GGG wins by KO in 7.

    I say this with low-level confidence: GGG by close decision. Less sure about Canelo's chances after weigh-in, cause GGG looks healthier than a year ago. Clen's about the same & it's not PEDs or the lack of deciding but skills, it's evenly matched an if in form, GGG's effective aggression should decide it with pressure on clean judging.

    Now there's a slight chance that Clen's nervous energy of yesterday will translate into something silly tonight, but seriously? I don't think so. Stoppage will either come by GGG adjusting properly and putting a prime performance on, or those claiming he's too old proven right and Abel pulls him out. Also, who's gonna land the best body blows? Could play a major part.

    But then again, I'll stick to GGG by decision.

    All the Canelo looks different stuff is laughable. At the weigh in, he looked exactly the same as he did the last weigh in. He just added a tan.

    GGG will win inside the ring 7 Rounds to 5.

    Canelo Alvarez will win on the scorecards: 115-113 (Twice) and

    I predicted a decision by Alvarez awhile ago. But had I bet money on the fight, I might have put some cash on GGG based on the weigh in. But I don't want to appear two faced, so I'll stick to my prediction. Canelo by MD

    Clenelo without his peds will have a massive phsychological impact on his mind because even with peds he could not put a dint on GGG.With out it he will feel that he doesnt have an advantage anymore.I feel he will gulp down tablets to make him feel better.He knows without Peds he has to rely on his boxing more all the natural gifts he has in the ring.Peds enhancement is gone.Poor Clenelo GGG will brutally KO you.

    Lmao. You’re right. My opinion that was in line with the vast majority of people who scored the fight. Moron.
