Canelo has certain qualities to make this a competitive match-up, but I want to see how he deals with a pressure-puncher first (Lemieux). I'd pick GGG to stop him right now. Maybe I'll feel different after Canelo/Lemieux.
GGG's style fits right into Canelo's strengths. Saying that Golovkin hits like a ****ing mule and at some point will probably take out Canelo. It comes down to power though, if Canelo can get GGG to respect his power, not necessarily by knocking him down or out, but simply make him hesitant the he's got a decent shot.
GGG by TKO around round 7. I think Chepo has to throw in the towel for Canelo because Canelo won't go out on his own the way Monroe did last night.
The first couple rounds will be great with great body shots from each guy. GGG is just way too relentless for Canelo though. Canelo does not have the stamina to fight with GGG for 12 rounds. Eventually Canelo will slow down and then its only a matter of time before GGG starts landing those monster shots consistently on him and force the corner to save Canelo who is too proud to quit.
This is for sure the fight I want to see more than any other in the sport right now.
