    If Canelo gets past Bivol, GGG vs Canelo will look like old yeller

    You know when old yeller gets put down behind the shed, that's what Canelo is going to do to GGG.

    That's if the fight happens though because Bivol is a MUCH more difficult opponent and that's a competitive fight.

    I'm becoming more convinced it will be a good fight if it happens. With all the terrible takes the other way, makes me feel confident about that really.

          DAZN made the 4.2 billion call ringside during the Murata fight. GGG got dog walked in the 2nd fight. If he can even last 12 rounds he will be on the 1st ambu to the ER. This is no joke. He is shot, DAZN needs revenues after debt capitalization and the GGGimmick has to pay for his equity in the company. Keep thinking corporations are friendly.

            I expect Canelo will win the fight but you can't expect him to just blow Golovkin away. He doesn't have the range or the workrate that Murata does, and even now GGG has never even been dropped in his career. Just because Canelo is a much better fighter than Murata doesn't mean he'll be able to do the same things Murata did against Golovkin. They're completely different guys with completely different body types and completely different styles. GGG has been 24 rounds with Canelo; there are no surprises left.

            I scored the first fight 8-4 GGG, second fight 7-5 GGG. This time, if I had to guess in advance, 8-4 Canelo sounds about right.

              I don't think Bivol is much more difficult opponent than GGG. GGG has still better fundamentals and is more complete fighter.

                He's a beaten old warhorse though, prime GGG maybe better than Bivol, it's an open question. Old GGG defs not better.

                Could be that he's got a bad style for canelo tho, that's a possibility.

                  GGG is still more complete. He can box, brawl or do both. He has ATG jab and his jab is clearly better than Bivol's jab p4p. I rank his jab and Inoue's jab top tier. Bivol has better footwork and boxing skills "in long range". Bivol is hamster in close range. This is why Canelo will beat him.

                    Canelo will get KO’d in third fight, Golovkin is lot stronger right now than he was in fight II.
