    Another factor here is speed...Canelo has the faster hands and that isn't going to change. Canelo had the power to back GGG off when he threw. GGG ain't getting any faster at his age and I think he is slower than a couple of years ago.
    For real, Mr. Wang. I’m telling everyone that this time, it’s gonna be easy for Canelo. Don’t be surprised if they stop it this time. Canelo has felt his power and took it like a champ. Can’t wait for the rematch; it’s Ward vs. Kova II all over again.

      It better not be Ward vs Kova 2 .....I want a legitimate ending to this one!!!! Middleweight deserves it. Canelo is a much cleaner fighter than Ward so I can't see this fight being stopped after a low blow.

      Regarding the jab, Canelo isn't bad at countering them overall and had Chavev Jr scared to throw his. I'm sure he's working specifically on GGG's and how to counter it.

      GGG had solid pressure in the first fight but Canelo landed the more eye-catching shots. If Canelo can land just a couple more nice shots a round and deal with the pressure a bit better I can definitely see him doing some real damage to GGG. I agree Canelo has now felt GGG'S power and he dealt with it Ok.

        If the rematch happens in May, I'm putting money on GGG. If it happens in September, my money's on Canelo

          Why does the month make the difference? Is it an age thing? Judges?

          Yet trying to understand the reasoning.

          One of the key things I noticed in the first fight was that GGG struggled even when he had Canelo backed against the ropes. He struggled to land clean shots there and Canelo seemed to be able to force GGG to back off when he threw his own shots. Canelo's speed and power with his counters seemed to stop GGG targetting the body much which imo he needs to do to stop Canelo.

          Who else is rolling with the Nelo?

            Age thing for me. Because one of two things will happen if the fight is made for September: GGG will sit out the whole year and wait for the fight, or he'll take a fight in between that will add more wear and tear on his body.

              But can he do that ?
              Good question. I don't know if he can improve his stamina but he definitely has to stay off the ropes.

                OK...so the fight is happening in May.

                I'm rolling with the Nelo...

                Current odds (per Ladbrokes) are:
                $1 on GGG returns $1.57
                $1 on Nelo returns $2.38
                $1 on draw returns $21

                Who's rolling with the Nelo?
                Who's rolling with the Kin of Golov?

                    I must admit that Oscar's comments about a trilogy make me a bit more uneasy about rolling with the Nelo.

                    A GGG win for this fight makes more sense for a rematch/trilogy than a Canelo win does imo.
