    It's 55-45 in favor of Canelo imo.

      Yeah, that was Golovkin's polite way of saying, "I don't want to talk about Andre Ward right before I get in the ring with Daniel Geale. Ask me a question about this fight or STFU."

          very simple question, if the fight goes to decision do you think GGG can win it? under what scenerio would GGG win a decision?

          imo the current scenerio is GGG has to win at least 10 rounds. Vegas nearly robbed Mayweather in a 10-2 victory. they'd rob GGG under the same scenerio.

              The last performance of each fighter factors greatly for what it's worth. Also, Canelo is the best fighter GGG has fought while the same can't be said for Canelo.

                This has always been a 50/50 fight as long as the fight was even being talked about. Anyone that thinks this is an easy fight for GGG is ****ing ******ed.

                  those are the regular hbo fights that gg has had.. such a murderers row. you fools get blinded by power

                  He finally fought a good fighter and didnt look like superman anymore. You all wanna blame age, but skill is the reason he looked the way he did, and canelo will out skill him

                  "he was better 4 years ago" No shlt cause look who he was fighting

                  Totally agree with you, I think the pressure is on GGG to not only win but destroy Canelo here, the hype he got for knocking out those names was over the top. The first big guy with decent skill he fought was Jacobs and because he didn't look that good people came up with the IBF weight excuse and age.

                    In fact, most oddsmakers, and vegas bookies go exactly off each fighters last fights. That's like making Bernard Hopkins the betting favorite against Kovalev because of his performance against Tarver lmao. You're only as good as your last fight.

                      How people don't understand this logic is really mind boggling. Not to say GGG isn't as good as he's cracked up to be, but he was never this invincible fighter that people praised him as. He was always a super technical swarmer/pressure fighter with a long and thudding jab, but very hittable.

                      Now we get to see how he looks with another supremely technical combination puncher with power, defense, and a champion's resolve.
