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

[eco1]

why is it that everyone in this forum resort to calling bad names on others instead of saying something meaningful?

[Akan]

cause that's how the sports community works, no one likes actual analysis anymore

Agreed. I just 'chin checked' a clown in my previous post because he thinks too highly of little g. Your avatar of little g knocking out bums says it all!!!

Little g has had no experience that will prepare him for the level he is getting ready to step up and face in Canelo. I can't wait for this fight to jump off and prove all of the naysayers wrong!

I have this as an even fight. Canelo has fought the much better comp, and has learned from them all. Golovkin is bigger, and has a great amateur background, so he has seen a lot also, but I believe Canelo's far deeper pro experience will pull him trough. Golovkin can win also, but 4 to 1, no way. even 2 to 1 is too wide. Especially when we do not know how GGG will respond really, to the first top fighter he has faced, he has barely broken the top ten once or twice.

Lmao,,,,

Why you so hostile...

Who said anything about GGG ko1.... Can you please quote that, or work on your reading comprehension skills...

GGG is the clear favorite.. If you think Canelo is going to win, then put some cash on him... Me personally, give him about as much as chance as khan had vs canelo, little to none

I don't have to pick ANYONE to win! I'm gonna pick it to go OVER and I'm sure I'm gonna have a few GTards who like you think Canelo is going to fall down in fear from just touching gloves! You already said it won't make it to round 7. And I said BS.and will match you. You need to respect the game and because your face is to close to ggg nut sack to see anything else.it won't be my problem when you owe ppl.

4-1 is pretty fair. Ppl love the KO! And GGG has been smashing Cans the last 10+ years. Personally I think it's gonna be a dog fight. And the winner is going to be the guy who makes a mistake 1st. If GGG comes in thinking he's gonna steam roll Canelo then he's DONE! And vice versa. Ggg just has the biggest POS DISRESPECTFULL fans in the PLANET!!! I like ggg a lot but can't STAND his POS Fans... Most of them of course.

murray
macklin
geale
stevens
lemuix

were all top 10 guys when GGG slaughtered them

There is a reason why n'dam, strum, serg, cotto all refused to fight GGG


Can you name a legit big puncher that canelo has faced... Yes he has fought good comp but trout, floyd, lara, and cotto aren't big punchers.. And no kirkland and angulo don't count as they were damaged goods

Obviously this will be the best fighter GGG has faced, and it will be the biggest puncher that canelo has faced..

Canelo and GGG are pretty much the same size and Canelo has never really had a decisive win against his best opposition. I haven't seen much development from Canelo as I'd like, he's still flatfooted and he never really controls the fight, he's way too opportunistic, he doesn't create his opportunities, that's the sign of a boxer with little experience to me. GGG howeer Has much more experience overall as a boxer, pro experince doesnt really translate to your actual skillset. He still comes up short to GGG in terms of tact and the very basics of boxing. Just because Canelo is regarded as a top fighter doesn't necessarrily make him one, to me it's much more about what they do in the ring rather than who've they've fought. If you look at the fighters themselves the edge definitely goes to GGG. Better footwork, better jab, better at creating and taking advantage of opportunities, proven power in both hands against Middleweights and over 300 amatuer bouts guarantees he's fought Canelo's fighting style. I'd even draw a parallel between Canelo and Lemieux.

LMAO...

Where are you coming up with this stuff...... Where did i say it won't go past 7..

All i said is that the line will be a lot closer because mexican fanboys will bet with their heart and pour money on canelo..

But yeah I don't see canelo seeing the final bell, not sure what the over/under is but i feel like ggg will stop him late like he did lemuiex and murray..

I expect by fight night the over/under will be 10.5 or 11

IF Geale and Macklin were legit top10 fighters, then that is indicative of an extremely weak middleweight division..... but Stevens should never have been ranked top10.

Canelo is way better than any of those guys.

The current IBF top10 lists are absurd, they are gonna get someone killed.

IF..... " it's much more about what they do in the ring "..... then how can you possibly "draw a parallel between Canelo and Lemieux" ?
