    The golovkin vs canelo fight has not even been signed and its already over shadowing the ward vs kovalev fight

    GGG vs Canelo is a mega fight

    In terms of media attention & world wide interest the GGG v Canelo fight is way bigger but Ward v Kovalev is a genuine 50 50 fight where as GGG is easily the favourite in his fight, I don't think it will be very competitive at all.

    GGG & Canelo will get the more hype, but Ward v Kovalev is more intriguing.

    Canelo v GGG will be bigger but both are brilliant fights.

    For me: Ward wins on points and GGG wins late.

    I feel canelo has a much better chance against GGG than kovalev does against ward. Canelo GGG is 50 50 fight in my opinion. And I reckon Ward will school kovalev. Wards on a different level skill wise

    Well of course. Canelo is the biggest name in boxing so it's only natural that would be the case.

    Andre Ward doesn't draw a dime.

    Most people on these boards would disagree with you and I assume the bookmakers will too.

    This has no relevance in the British forum.
