Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Canelo-GGG '6-8 Rounds of Hell,' Hagler-Hearns Again

[wrecksracer]

Every fight nowadays is Hagler-Hearns.

Lol anything to sell a fight. I remember when GGG/Lemieux was going to be Hagler/Hearns.The truth of the matter, there was only one Hagler and only one Hearns. Today's fighters aren't wired that way.

No war at all. Canelo is guaranteed a win if he makes it to the end. That's why my money is on Canelo via points robbery.

Well at least he is promoting his fight and not b1tching about Mayweather vs McGregor

Canelo can win this with faster foot placement meaning he is in and out of the pocket quicker. But he will get hit and hard 'cos he's not slick either - that's the question... can he take it? I have Canelo B+ athletic and B+ foot speed, his hand speed is A- and combinations are A - all of that is something GGG has never met before.

GGG is past his absolute prime which is normal for 99% of 35 yr olds - I like his chances better if this was 18 months ago or even 12 months ago. How much more? 5 or 10% more but that was an edge he's lost in the intervening time. I call great match-making by GB - for maxing revenue, increasing Canelo's chances, maxing out legacy enhancement - and if Canelo loses he was beaten by a 'monster' and is young enough to bounce back.

I didn't purchase the Floyd/Conor exhibition match & I won't be purchasing this fight as well. Dela Hoya has been getting on my nerves with all this whining about the Floyd/Conor match. He took the cake when he claimed he would have denied promoting such a match like that. Dela Hoya should have been spending that time promoting this fight instead of hating on the Floyd/Conor fight. I haven't forgot when Dela Hoya sold his soul to Haymon & Floyd and now he's trying to buy it back. I don't buy this bullshiiit coming from Dela Hoya.

Wait... Wasn't Canelo-Chavez Jr supposed to be Barrera-Morrales?

So DeLa Hoya's Hating on Mayweather/Mc Gregor is the reason ur gonna Hate on Canelo/GGG ?

[CLUBBER!]

I wonder which of them will be fatter on fight night

[Nomadic]

No way Canelo risk a Hagler vs Hearns with G. Especially if he is trying to win.
