    Did anybody lose confidence on GGG winning the fight vs Canelo

    After that article on ESPN where he states that his fight with Canelo might be his last one or was it just blown out of proportion? Canelo is talking tough and predicting a KO but GGG talking about possibly not fighting after this fight.

    Triple G is 35 years old not 35 years young. His worst 2 performances have been his last two and that isn't some weird fluke accident.

    Yes Triple G is a good fighter, but let's not blow it out of proportion. His resume isn't exactly filled with HOF'ers. In fact, Triple G doesn't have a single HOF scalp on his resume. That's just the truth. And when he has stepped up (WW Brook and Chinny Jacobs) he hasn't looked unbeatable like his earlier run was.

    Canelo is far better than anyone Gennady has faced and although Canelo isn't as big as Danny, he has better boxing ability, and prefers to fight off the backfoot. It's going to be a great night and I'm leaning towards Canelo via close decision 8-4 or even 7-5. There may be a KD in the fight, but I think Canelo plain and simply wants it more

      Agree with this.

      The writing is on the wall. Canelo will beat GGG.

        Not at all, I still got GGG to win the fight 100 percent.

        This is honestly his biggest possible payday save for a rematch perhaps but don't blame him. Take care of business and retire a legend.

        End of the day they have families to tend to as well, kinda reminds me of Maidana which still coulda stil had many great fights but made a smart move and retired after Floyd.

            Yeah I stated that Golovkin would definitely win around last year but now I'm not sure at all. Golovkin has size and technique but Canelo's a fast mofo.

              The excuses have started.

              Reminded me of Cotto-Martinez. I remember everyone saying even a 60% Sergio beats Cotto.

              Now people are saying even this version of GGG crushes Canelo.

              GGG is going to get lit up.

                I said it since this fight was talked about and I am still saying it.


                Golovkin will stop Canelo late. I'm thinking a corner stoppage.

                  I'm telling you guys. Canelo spends too much time on the ropes and he fights in spurts too much

                  GGG TKO 6

                  Canelo goes out like a G

                    Thing is he doesn't have a very good gas tank. And to beat GGG you need to have fast legs.

                    Canelo will gas and be forced into Golovkins fight. He doesn't like to do so.
