    Do you think Khan will last longer in his fight than Wade will in his?
    Everyone has trouble with Sam Soliman, regardless of his age, so Wade having problems wasn't some kind of shock.

    Golovkin isn't going to put Wade out with one shot; 'Canelo' Alvarez can put Khan away with one shot.

    If I had to bet money, I'd put money on Wade lasting longer than Khan (depending on what the odds end up looking like, I may even end up putting some money on Wade to win; Wade is the bigger man, Wade is the faster man, and Wade matches Golovkin on straight boxing skills)

      Every bookie has Khan-Canelo as a much more competitive fight than Golovkin-Wade.

        That is very much true but I think the bookies are wildly overestimating Khan's chances of winning.

            So I assume then you'll be giving GGG lots of credit for beating this man who you believe to be a talented and criminally underrated opponent?

              So what are you saying, that the opinion of bookies is not that relevant and GGG vs Wade is actually the more competitive fight?

              Clarify your opinion please.

                This is exactly what I'm saying. The odds being so close is the effect of two famous fighters fighting each other.

                Golovkin is fighting a guy from his own division, Canelo is not.

                And I'm not saying this fight is more competitive, I'm saying it doesn't matter.

                Bookies DKSAB and bringing up their opinion on these fights is kind of desperate and pathetic.

                But if you and Isaac actually do trust their judgement, please, put your money where your mouths are and bet on Khan.

                  How did Chino vs Floyd play out? Maidana was more a under-dog than Rios was against Pac but odds don't tell the story and are a lazy way of analyzing fights. I predicted Floyd would struggle and predicted what Maidana would do including out boxing him in spots.

                      Like the bookies thought it would, Mayweather by decision. Thread starter wanted peoples opinions on what's the more competitive fight, bookies odds are a good indication of that.
