  • Not many gave Bivol a shot against Canelo, therefore I am giving GGG a punchers chance to maybe surprise Canelo with a few left hooks tom the head chin and body. My pick? GGG by stoppage.

    • Arturo, I like your optimism picking GGG. I’m hoping the benefits of working with Jonathan Banks and the challenge / motivation of fighting Canelo pays off.

    • I like ur thought process but lets not forget that Bivol is a true LHW, something Canelo is definitely not. GGG however is moving up in weight so it will either tire him out early and cause him to fold on a body shot OR show a sickish new power that we have never seen and lay Canelo out cold. Either way, im freaking excited

    • Arturo…..so Bivol couldn’t stop him but GGG coming up a weight class and still being 7 pounds less than Bivol on weigh in….is going to stop Canelo? I can’t wait to hear how this one makes any sense. If you say he hits harder or will be more active than Bivol was, I will give up on humanity.

  • 5 to 1???? Come on, that is highly disrespectful to Golovkin. He gave Canelo all he could handle in the first 24 rounds and then some. Saul is not that much better than him, even at 40 years old. I do think Canelo wins by decision but it will be competitive. I liken this trilogy to the James Toney vs Mike McCallum rivalry from the 90’s. First fight was a draw and Toney edged the rematch by majority decision. By the time they clashed the third time (ironically 4 1/2 years after their second battle, similar to the time lapse between 2 and 3 for Canelo vs Golovkin) McCallum had lost just enough speed and reflexes so Toney could comfortably outpoint, albeit by 115-113 twice. I see the same thing happening here with Canelo doing a hybrid of fight 1 and 2 (boxing and fighting mixed together) but could also see a massive upset being possible.

    • Where do people get this GGG gave Canelo all he could handle crap? You mean Canelo gave GGG all he could handle. Please don’t forget Canelo was the pu… that GGG was supposed to destroy in the first fight. At that time GGG was the man and Canelo was nothing. Then Canelo went 24 rounds with a prime GGG and GGG couldn’t make a dent in Canelo’s chin. People forge that.

  • The odds?

    I’m seeing 6 to 1 odds! I don’t where they r getting those odds from. Unless they know something i don’t it seems ridiculous. I look at it as 50-50 and I’m rooting for GGG.

  • I understand it will be hard, but I hope GGG can put Canelo flat-out cold on the mat. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t want nothing bad happening to Canelo but to lose the fight in an unforgettable fashion.

  • Coming back down from Lt. Heavy could have an effect on Canelo. Remember when Roy Jones jumped up to heavyweight? When he came back down in weight he wasn’t the same fighter. Just something to think about.

    • ur exactly right! The upside to this story is that this is GGG’s first fight at the higher weight. although GGG has always been a good size middle weight, having them extra pounds could slow him down later rounds. We saw he gassed during the 4th of their last fight. with that in mind, this puts both of them at an even playing field imo.

  • I would love for Canelo to get knocked out. However, Bivol was alot bigger and stronger and was unable to knock him out. I don’t think Canelo has a bad chin. I just don’t like his attitude and how he carries himself as if we must bow to him.
