    I'm WARD vs KOVALEV II will go down as the better fight for hardcore fans.
    I think Canelo is going to outbox GGG and use distance and movement. I don't see it being a "Mexican Style War".

      I voted Canelo-GGG but let's be real, who DOESN'T want to see what could be the funniest professional boxing match of all time?

        That is fair. I've said on several occasions I don't blame Floyd or Conor in the slightest for making this ****. Why on earth wouldn't they? It's a joke of a fight but you can't argue that it won't make them both a hell of a lot of money.

        I've a pet theory that the two of them are gonna get together to work out some set pieces and do some rehearsals so they can at least put on an entertaining show - either that or Floyd will carry Conor for some rounds. I hope they do at least - they probably owe the public some kind of spectacle for their $100 (or whatever the PPV costs).

          Canelo has some good skills but I'm not particularly counting distance control or movement (except that of his upper body) amongst his strengths. In fact his use of the ring and his movement are amongst the weakest parts of his game the way I see it. I see Canelo having good success on the counter in the early rounds but gradually the greater pace at which GGG fights is going to take it's toll IMO.

            That's a good observation that very well could happen. I just think the best (maybe only) way canelo can win is to outbox ggg. Canelo made a huge mistake thinking he could outbox Floyd. Could be a mistake with GGG but it seems to be the best move from where I sit.

              Canelo vs GGG... you forgot to put the A side 1st on that billing the way it should be. Floyd is gonna embarrass McGregor and possibly stop him late when he gases... there's no intrigue in it for me since Floyd is going to win. Canelo vs GGG is a 50/50 fight but I'm rooting for Canelo. This is GGG's step up fight to either prove the hype or prove he's a hype job. It's going to be an explosive and fun fight to watch.

                Of course Canelo-GgG.

                I dont give a *** about any fights that involve mayweather. I stopped caring about floyd fights when he left 135.. im watching the Mcgregor fight on youtube.

                  Well ask yourself why the *** you care so much when people bash the Floyd-Connor circus event.

                    Update: Nevermind it looks like it is public. I don't know what's more pathetic the so called fight fans that voted for the freak show or the pansies who came into the thread to complain but refused to vote (LarryXXX and The Big Dunn).
                    It is public. Click on the number of the poll result and you'll get the names.

                    Well, I'll make it easy for you to know the clowns in this forum.

                    DRUM-ROLL...

                    IT ALL STARTED WITH ONE VOTE FOR THE CIRCUS SHOW

                    IT WAS..

                    DOSUMPTHIN..

                    NOW HIS BROTHAS HAVE FOLLOWED..

                    THE CLOWNS IN THE CIRCUS SIDESHOW aside from Dosumpthin ARE..

                      Let's be real, if you are smart and know this is a lame fight. You'll watch this in free streaming or in youtube after the fight.

                      That is if your smart. You'll know this ain't worth a dime.

                      You want the circus show. All you need is to watch free fight build up that's the only good part there. The fight itself will be a stinker. Floyd won't want to be caught by a hail mary shot. He'll be running around the ring pot shotting to a boring UD.

                      After the fight. A lot buyers remorse will take in effect for watching this stinker. Mark my words. This will be another cat and mouse borefest. Courtesy of Froid Roid.
