Can't find too many credible people picking Golovkin

GGG tko 9. Corner stops it.

This fight is way too close to call but I give Golovkin a slight edge. This will be a back and forth fight that might go to the last round. I don't see a KO or even a KD. Golovkin has a chance to win but he'll have to get the decision in Vegas. I wasn't as surprised about Golovkin getting a favorable decision in New York agianst Jacobs. I would be shocked if he did against Canelo in Vegas.

golovkin is taller by 2 inches you simpleton, that gives him a range advantage which is more important that reach advantage Really? So how much of a range advantage does that give him expert?

Don't know what method Boxrec used but from the armpit to fist or like you say chest to fist is more accurate than the wingspan. FYI BoxingRec uses Wingspan-fingertip to fingertip.

Because he has basically zero reach advantage lol golovkin is taller by 2 inches you simpleton, that gives him a range advantage which is more important that reach advantage

True about reach, GGG's height advantage adds-up to a small functional advantage. Always, have had a problem with reach measurements wingspan or armpit to fist neither is adequat, I think center of chest to end of fist is a more functional measurement or half of wingspan if measured to the end of the fist instead of fingertips.

If GGG does get a win will he get any respect here since he's basically got zero chance of winning? I'm going to get at no. I'll congratulate him, but he's still a career mw who's been waiting his whole career to pull smaller fighters up to his weight to try yo get a payday.

yeah unless its a robbery or controversial. I find that hard to believe, if Canelo wins a decision, I don't think you'll accept it and will cry robbery even if it's even slightly close.

If GGG does get a win will he get any respect here since he's basically got zero chance of winning? I'm going to get at no.

Why are people posting that G has a reach advantage over Canelo. Boxrec list Canelo's reach at 70.5 inches and Golovkin's at 70 inches. Is Boxrec wrong? Lol because they don't know wtf they're talking about

A guy with questionable stamina bulking up is rarely a good thing. I don't see many people talking about GGG's reach advantage either. Pretty sure that will be a significant factor along with Canelo's tendency to fight on the ropes, and GGG's effectiveness when his opponents are on the ropes.

Finally made my pick, GGG in a 8-10rd TKO. Canelo is coming off a easy but decisive win over Chavez Jr., younger, better resume and associated with Golden Boy and GBP, media favorites. That's why I see more high profile types other than pro boxers picking Canelo. It's been a tough 50/50 decision for me. Canelo pluses are age, speed, movement and good whiskers. GGG has more power, high volume pressure, focus and good whiskers I think, never been anyone to really test his chin. Today, I saw a several recent workouts of both fighters looked sharp in their respective style with snap on their punches but the thing was Canelo's bulk gain, why so much? He didn't need it, he fought Chavez Jr at 164 and even at 147 was 160+ pounds at fight time and by the way that's where at the Golden Era Greats fought. In reality Canelo is a natural Middleweight by old-time standards and GGG is a MW by today's weigh-in standards. It seems to me he took one of his advantages, speed and now has made it questionable particularly after 8+ rounds. Holyfield, someone who knows about bulking up said that after 6-8 rounds Canelo's shoulder will be burning and have the feel of someone standing on them; hand speed and snap gone. I agree, those concerns tilted my opinion to 51:49 for GGG. It should be a great fight and will be happy with the outcome either way.

Breadman and Ward are leaning GGG I guess...

I am credible and I got GGG. Yes, based on your name, you definitely seem credible, and very unbiased

when push came to shove the vast majority picked golovkin in the pick em. People arent as confident in canelo as they make out and hes betting underdog for a reason . So if canelo wins, you'll be here to say congratulations them right? No b1tching, crying, whining, etc. You'll just accept he won and that's it?

The mainstream media within boxing, wants Canelo Alvarez to win! (But unfortunately this is not going to happen!)....
