Undercard:
Jaime Munguia vs Brandon Cook (WBC Middleweight title)
David Lemieux vs Gary O'Sullivan
Roman Gonzalez vs Moises Fuentes
Canelo has felt his power now, and Golovkin knows he can't let it go to the judges this time.
This will be similar to Roman/Rungvisai II in that the better fighter will make the statement once and for all.

Updated the OP to include the fight info, thanks for the reminder.
This is the same Scott who got BODIED all over the Fury/Wlad thread mind you, by myself and others.
:lol1:
I'm also in my 30s and have been lacing em up since 06. Most people know this by now. Then there's Scott.....the Wlad defeat really damaged him mentally.
:rofl: :lol1:
Glad this is not on stickys. This poster is too damn lazy to add the date, network shown, and all relevant info.
I only come here to see who is fighting this week. This has nothing in it. And it says, "Official..."
true true.... we shall see how this fight plays out.... loaded is cool... that golovkin dude is another matter :lol1:

Between rounds I recall Clenelo being told to keep his guard high, stick and move you can’t really go to the body when you need to retain a high guard due to the concussive power of GG Saul will need to keep his guard high all night obvisuly he’ll be switch hitting here and there but he’s on his back foot the entire night.
I’m 36, just wanted to make sure you weren’t some brain dead 17 year old like Loaded Wtaps or the poster Golovkin/the notorious one or whatever the funk he calls his ass lately. When I’m debating boxing on this site I offend get the impression some are adolescents with the limited brain cells of more than the majority of posters that reside in this forum. Their is a lot of sensitive jack asses on here too who get screwed up thinking they’re being humiliated by a 16 year old hence my age on display.

they never really attacked his body much imo.... plus the punch that hurts you the most is the one you dont see coming.. I think canelo has the angles to make that happen as well ggg showed us in his last fight he cant really cut off the ring like everyone kept on saying....
im about to be 34

You consider Clenelo a big puncher ?
GG has he ever been down, like ever ? Stevens, Lemieux, Jacobs all these guys are monstrous punchers didn’t do squat, hell that punch Geale hit GG with would have felled most not necessarily because of the power but GG damn didn’t see it yet he ate it up and dropped that poor sucker immediately.
I’m not sure what I’m reading a lot of the times, whether it’s blind patriotism, fanboyism or what hell the agendas on here are far and wide to work out every freak on this site but I just don’t see how anyone can claim Clenelo will stop GG ?
Can I ask how old are you Javi ?

If Golovkin starts agressively and works the body I expect him to KO Canelo around the 7th round. He will take command of the fight using his jab and then start mixing in body and head shots.
GG for should win but he’s beginning to look his age, we’re 12 months removed from the last time he fought a a credible world class opponent, against Vanes all he did was waste 12 months of his career fighting a guy less dangerous than his sparring partners, how do you stay sharp fighting nobodies sparring doesn’t give you that edge you get facing credible worthwhile opposition,I guess GG isn’t gonna learn much more at this stage of his career other than his own limitations but I guess he could begin to look poor after 8 but I very much doubt Clenelo has anything to cause him any danger after the half way mark that boy better have been micro dosing or he’s in a world of trouble himself.
ima go with canelo by body shot tko on this one :boxing:

Fan of both, although rooting for GGG to win here more than Canelo to be honest. Surprised to see many picking him by (T)KO though, I dont see either one getting the finish or even a knockdown in the fight. Both got great chins. I think Golovkin had the first fight but I didn't raise hell with the draw though. But I am picking Canelo by UD for this one, but to be honest, I picked it for the first fight too. But lets see what happens. Hopefully it will be a good fight for the viewers
Except he looked nothing like the image in black and white on fight night
That image what was it from a photo shoot?
At least be fair about comparisons.
Open workout last year.

Yeah I literally couldn't find a shirtless canelo picture during this years workout and didn't want to screen cap from the actual video.
Wow he looked huge in last year open workout, there is a reason why he didn’t take his shirt off this year.
That black in white picture was posted on his face book when he was training.
You know what? He hasn’t looked that huge anytime in his whole training camp.
