Comments Thread For: HBO's Lampley: Golovkin a Slight Favorite, But Canelo Can Win

[Blue Heffner]

I just want to see a good fight but I'm routing for GGG.

It's boxing and we usually know how these big fights play out. Canelo is most likely to win a decision of some sort. All he has to do is survive and he'll get the nod. Just survive...

WITH CROOKED GOLDEN GIRL SPONSORED JUDGES GGG BETTER DOMINATE CANELA..... IF GOLDEN GIRLS CROOKED JUDGES CAN GIVE CANELA AND OSCARINA A TIE AGAINST MAYWEATHER THEY SURE AS HELL CAN ROB GOLOVKIN.... IF THE FIGHT IS IN TEXAS THOSE CROOKED TEXICAN JUDGES WILL ROB GGG BLIND WITHOUT A DOUBT.....

EXCUSES are all ready in FULL effect I see

"If there are two people in boxing who are basically identical to each other, in the way they conduct their careers, those are the two guys..."

I'm sorry Mr. Lampley, I'm going to have to respectfully disagree. Canelo's career path has been significantly different from GGG. He turned pro at 15, and has already faced Trout, Mayweather, Angulo, Lara, and Cotto, and he's only 26!

I am sorry Mr Bronx, i am going to respectfully dissagree.
Mayweather fight - lost misserably. Lara fight - lost. Cotto fight - beat up an old small midget.

Where are the accomplishments?


Have a nice day

He's going to cry either way. Dude is a woman.

I bet when it gets cold outside and one of his potted plants dies he has a good cry and then loudly in his backyard to nobody in particular gives the plant a ten minute monologue in remembrance

I really don't see Gennady as the favorite. Not even as a slight favorite. And I'm rooting hard for Golovkin.

But Gennady has to knock out Canelo. Because he's not a good enough boxer to beat Canelo in a decision. He's just not.

And we've never seen Canelo hurt since he's arrived at the top level. He hasn't even been close to being put on the canvas...let alone knocked the f**k out.

Honestly I think it's something like 60/40 Canelo.

I think this fight is going to be a lot.like Kovalov/Ward. And just like Kovalov GGG does not have a lot of experience in the late Championship rounds like Canelo does.

Canelo has almost 3x the amount of rounds boxed more then GGG.

Canelo has fought WAY better fighters.

Canelo has went the distance MULTIPLE times and won close fights by work he did in the late rounds and never quitting.

GGG will also becoming off one of his longest layovers ever.

Dude trust me I'm not a Canelo fan...but if you think his mindset is to just go in there and "survive", you're gonna be sadly mistaken.

Dude is a hell of a fighter.

I don't think he's going into the fight to just survive. I'm saying that's all he has to do. I think he's going to have his moments, especially early in the fight.

I question if Canelo can keep up a high pace for 12 rounds (while getting hit), that's my only question mark. I guess it's better to say, Golovkin will need a KO to win.

[Death_Adder]

Let's count up the excuses

Canelo waited until he got old
crooked judges
Canelo's not getting PED testing
GGG needed that fight in June to properly be prepared
Fight taking place in the southwest US or Vegas is an unfair home-field advantage
Canelo's probably going to make him fight at a catchweight

any more?

??? I had Floyd winning almost every round. Unlike u I don't let race turn me into a FULL RTard. Every MEXICAN I know will say the same. But stay ****** if you want to.
