I do wonder how much that has to do with it and if Golovkin would have crushed Jacobs in two rounds if we wouldn't instead have Lemieux vs Canelo.

    I guess none of that matters now.

    I think it's a legit 50/50 fight and not necessarily because of skill but because of their styles- it means both guys are going to take a lot of damage and in a fight like that where neither guy is willing to back down and are willing to take damage, it could be they fight 10 times and each win 5. Just depending on who dishes out the most punishment the fastest and may boil down to who gets​ hurt first.
    Tell you what, it will be a close competitive fight but no way Golovkin can win on points, he has to KO Canelo

      Canelo couldn't even hurt a punching bag in Chevez Jr or a blown up WW in Cotto. I don't think he's going to get GGG's respect with his power, and he doesn't have the legs to outbox him,

              September of 2017 was the date targeted before Golovkin even fought Brook.

                Canelo is coming off a dominant performance, GGG is coming off a razor thin win. The opponents had a lot to do with it though.

                I was picking GGG confidently for awhile, but I'd say it is pretty evenly matched now.

                    I will say though if it's a controversial decision and a dope fight, the fans wins because we'll get a trilogy out of it!
                    Trilogy? With GGG approaching grandfather's age?

                      Both are great fighters.

                      Canelo is in his prime. GGG is past his best.
                      Look at her getting the excuses in already.
