Comments Thread For: Golovkin Opens as 4-1 Favorite To Beat Canelo

I KNOW!!! Gabe looked like one flabby dude!!! Now I'm graving Pillsbury Doe...

If anything I would be ASHAMED to show that video. If that's one of the BEST fighters GGG fought and GTards had the time to make that video. They REALLY think GGG is. A GOD!

You think GTards will go all Jones Town on each other if GGG loses???

Here's the kicker: He will make Canelo look almost exactly the same, with the exception he probably will not make it to Rd 7

i would put my life savings on canelo and my grandfathers farm at these odds. in my opinion it should be 4-1 in favor of canelo. ggg is a great fighter but who has he beat??? canelo has a great resume and he is ten years younger. plus he has improved so much since his loss to mayweather it is astonishing. it will be great to see ggg get laid out and have four times the money in my bank account on the same day.

Man I would take that bet, where is the farm? (I'll even give you 6-1)

I think the odds will get closer since Canelo is the bigger name and casuals will bet on him as the fight gets closer.

Idc what the odds are...GGG wins this

Gennady Gennadyevich Golovkin will totally dominate Saul Alvarez in every single way. Canello stands very little chance of going the distance and will either get KO'd or the Reynoso boys will toss in the towel to keep their golden goose from getting drawn and feathered. This will be a systematic break down and beat down of the Mexican "I am really a natural WW/SWW" claiming fraud.

Why do people worry so much about a resume?
GGG does everything better than Canelo.
Footwork is better, punches technique is better, fundamentals are better, even his mix ups are better, he literally is a man who discovered his body and his boxing identity. He has so many amateur bouts and faced so many styles by now, he should be adaptable.

Whereas Canelo lacks everywhere, even if his pro resume is better, his fights were pretty close/losses if anything. And worse yet, Canelo literally has no boxing identity. After the Floyd loss, he tries to be a cute counter puncher for the most part, when his body and just about everything is built to contradict that.
This is exactly what happened with Chavez Jr. He took a loss to Martinez and tries his hands down approach the very next fight--and he looked like an idiot.
It's just a matter of refining your identity. I know GGG has done that and more. Whereas I'm not sure Canelo is going to execute anything rather well when the tests come by. Boxing is 100% imposing your style against another, and adapting. Same with just about anything when you're versus someone. It is all just a mental arena.
I'm not even betting that GGG is more powerful than Canelo at 160 or even all these exterior factors people usually look at-- I literally am going for the guy with actual skill, and other intangibles that might be a bit subtle and often overlooked in a boxing match. To me Canelo fights pretty. He looks flashy on the outside, but he has little to no control with most of anything he does(nor does his team) and that's so evident.
He throws wild shots, can't get his feet off and has a very low output. That's why the betting odds are heavily skewed against him. He's like a car with a nice exterior but a **** engine.

dont you know how it works? When the bell rings, Canelo will hold up his resume. GGG will peruse it for a second, say "uh oh, you have better resume" and then he will take a knee.

I know right.! I've seen a lot of ignorance on here over the years, especially from GGG fans.
