      Shlt man, you need to go out and meet some real people. It's not healthy to ask multiple questions in a sentence as it suggests you need the affirmation for your opinion!!

      Just state what you think and accept that people will disagree from time to time. All you are doing is baiting people for their opinion so you can retaliate with your own.

      Tut, kids.

        I thought Canelo was gonna expose GGG as a pussy and stop him like Ward did to Kov with body shots?

          What do you mean? For the Kovalev fans, what's was their hope or expectation for Kovalev to perform? Does Kovalev represent the east-euro block greats? This whole week we've been talking trolling about "conditioning" going 12 rounds. Kovalev said he over trained in the first Bout. In the second Bout he looked more gassed out.

          Now, there have been threads if Nelo is capable enough to be like Mexican greats ala Morales, Barrera, Marquez... are those guys known to "gas" out when the blood guts and glory are in the line?

          Do you know how many posters are saying Nelo is going to gas out!?

          Therefore, what was the learning factor. Nobody had Ward winning the fights. Why is nobody giving Nelo the chance? This is why I'm posing the question, were Kova and now Nelo not capable of handling Olympians?

            Slow feet aside, Alvarez has shown against pretty good competition that he can fight a bunch of different ways.

            He can slug, he can stalk, he can stalk behind the jab, he can catch-and-shoot, he can fight off of the back foot, etc.

            Golovkin has shown that he can fight one, maybe two ways.

            What does Golovkin do when his "Mexican style" doesn't work, or worse, Alvarez is catching and firing on every shot?

              My X-Factor prediction is Nelo's firepower on the inside and the confidence. Also Gennady will have to make a choice fighting the way he did with Stevens or Lemieux if his strategy ain't working, and Gennady said he's gonna bring animal. So I expect Gennady to go balls out the way he did with Ouma, which he was getting tagged... though against a Southie.

                Canelo has never faced anybody with GGG's combination of exceptional two handed punching power, an iron jaw, excellent stamina and punches landed per round work rate,a long, powerful, educated left jab and all around boxing skill and experience. If he has ever faced a boxer with all of these assets what's his name. While you might argue that GGG is not a good boxer the fact remains he has lost very few rounds on the judge's cards in his entire career. All his wins come by UD or KO. There are no draws, split decisions or losses marring his record. Canelo has a draw, a loss and a split decision on his record. Canelo is a hell of a fighter and my favorite boxer but I think he will lose his next fight.
