      Reality is best. A great fight with the better man that night being the winner is best for boxing. Canelo is a brave fighter with total dedication to training hard and being the best boxer he can be. A lost to Mayweather didn't hurt him much. He would survive a lost to GGG and continue to be a big star. If Canelo wins fairly with no bad decision then his popularity would go through the roof.

        I would say a Canelo win would be better. Nobody ducks Alvarez, for one. Fights are difficult to make when GGG is in power.

          GGG win is better. Canelo will always be a star, and the last time he lost he came back fighting against boxers people thought he would avoid.

          If GGG wins he will capitalize on his momentum and finish off his career with big marquee fights. If he loses he'll have to rebuild and that will negatively affect whatever time he has left in the sport.

            You're assuming that GGG winning would all of a sudden would make ducks become brave and fight him. It's probably the opposite. Most of them will likely demand $5 mil minimum. The man wants 4 fights a year. How can that be possible when his opponents are all demanding truckloads of money just to taste his power?

              Everyone's assuming something. Canelo has slowly, but consistently, been moving further away from the fighter everyone thought he was and becoming a little bit of a cherry picker.

              GGG winning would make him a target because, unlike now, people won't really be able to say he hasn't fought anyone, and after he completely unifies the middleweight division, he will make the bigger fights at 168 were nobody is ducking him.

                  A Canelo win would certainly be better. It would show these young guys that you should fight at whatever catch weight gives you the most advantage. That you should invite opponents into the ring, and talk sh it about them with no real intentions of fighting them. It would show the younger guys that if your mandatory challenger doesn't give you the money you want, that you should throw the belt away and try to get one at a different weight. A Canelo win would be great to show the boxing world how a diva operates

                    Canelo is younger, so him.

                      I figure it should be the haters that want GGG to fight until 50 so they can watch him get knocked, I'm sorry, I mean "pushed" out the ring like B-Flop
