What’s the boxing community’s opinion on this topic?
I think he’ll feel great at the weight but I’m not sure he can take a full fledge Super Middleweights power like he is going to feel this weekend.
Canelo is definitely bigger than him.

Canelo at 154lbs he weighed 174lbs against Trout. Canelo was already bigger than GGG back at 154 on fight night.
this is before tainted meat. he's gained 10 lbs of solid muscle.
Canelo doesn't reveal his fight night weight for a reason. I wouldn't be surprised that Canelo was 190 on fight night against Bivol
Absolutely.Canelo is massive. He's not as tall but he's barrel chested and thick. He looks like a block. I saw measurements for their wrists, and Canelo is bigger boned. He is really the "bigger" guy.
Will help, less weight cut. Better stamina and strength. OI say GGG comes in around 165 or 166. Will weigh like 172 on fight night. He just has always had a style that meshes well with Canelos. Canelo is faster and more compact. I think the extra weight will help GGG.
G is old. If he was 5 years younger I would say 168 would be helpful. Now? I think he will feel better but that won’t compensate for being 40.
His chin has always been made out of iron though. That Bivol loss could still be weighing heavy on Canelos mind which adds a lot of drama to this trilogy.
Getting more and more stoked as the fight nears :boxing:
Shouldn't be a problem, it'll be less taxing on GGG's body since he is getting older as it is harder to cut weight as one ages.
Plus he's naturally bigger than Canelo, who had to use the juice to move up.

It doesn’t matter where he’s fought or gone. Anyone can pack on weight and punch over their weightclass. They’re the same/similar size. Golovkin a little taller, Canelo a little stockier. I’ve actually boxed. The nitpicking of a few lbs is for nerds like you.
Even at 168lbs. They are not likely to be more than 5lbs apart. Lol @ Canelo weighing 190.
Then again Golovkin is so juiced, shredded & compact these days I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s coming in relatively lower.
This beta cuckold is accusing GGG of juicing now while the man he simps for was caught on PED's.
tf is wrong with this guy?

The point is he was rehydrating to the same weight as a 34 yo ggg when he was 24.
He already fought up to lhw
Do you have mental problems? He is obviously going to be bigger at 32 on fight night

Alvarez and Angulo were 155 and and 154.5 pounds at the pre-fight weighin. Alvarez re-hydrated to 170 compared to 174 for Angulo.
Canelo was 170 vs Angulo who was 174. If you saw the actual showtime broadcast. Ringtv, and Boxrec reported it as such. Someone clearly got it wrong.

I think it'll help him, but it would've helped him even more if he had moved up a bit earlier and not just now for the biggest fight of his life.
His only advantage in this situation is the fact that they've fought twice. Other than that, I'd be a bit moved by the fact that he didn't fully prepare himself for a move up in weight.
Canelo was 174 lbs for Angulo on fight night. that is higher than any GGG fight night weight.
This was almost 10 years ago. You would have to be an idiot to think Canelo didn't add on substantial weight since then. He will be way bigger than GGG on saturday night.

They’re the same size. Canelo was 172 vs Trout. Golovkin has been at least 173 a few times. A little discrepancy mens nothing, and Canelo is shorter.

this is before tainted meat. he's gained 10 lbs of solid muscle.

It'll help. He also doesn't have to come in at 168. Coming in 2 or 3 lbs under would be just as fine. Probably should've moved up already but he's facing a familiar opponent so the new weight won't be completely new.
He is almost 40 so not having to cut weight will still benefit GGG.
Its like you had hatton at 147 vs floyd and everyone wanted to act like 147 was harder for hatton but forgot that he also benefited not having to cut weight.
GGG doesnt blow up inbetween fights like Hatton but its still harder to make weight the older you get, he has fought above 160 before for that very reason
Only blown up if he packs on weight that he shouldn’t. And Canelo is no bigger than him. So he should be fine.
Canelo is definitely bigger than him.
