Comments Thread For: De La Hoya Sure Canelo-Golovkin Rematch Will End in Knockout

[No punch power]

My boy Canelo is going to walk through the feather fisted Golovkin's punches this time and put that Kazakh feather fist to sleep. Last time, he had a hand injury which is why Canelo Alvarez couldn't inflict as much damage as he potentially could on Golovkin with his punches. This time, he isn't going to hold back at all because he would've recovered and fully healed by now. Which means he is going to unleash his full power and make everyone realize the myth behind Golovkin's chin by sparking him out unconscious inside the distance.

And Canelo Alvarez would also by now, have adjusted to the 160 pounds division and therefore be better prepared in terms of stamina. Which would be further aided by more specific training to improve stamina.

This time, Canelo isn't going to move back as much and would be moving forward to get the KO. It wasn't Golovkin's power that caused Canelo Alvarez to retreat but his lack of stamina which is going to be sorted out for the rematch.

Why does every promoter say the fight will end in a KO?

Boxing Promotion 101. They all took the same class in “BS Promotion School.”

KO/TKO is very unlikely in a rematch.

Well, Canelo couldn't even KD a drained Chavez Jr., a tiny Cotto, a cowardly Lara, a punching-bag Angulo, an old Mosley and of course Mayweather Jr., so how can he KO a granite-chinned GGG who already proved he can take ANY of his punches and keep pressing on like nothing happened?

If there's a KD or a KO in that 2nd fight, the one going down is Canelo, not GGG, and if Canelo does the same as he did in the 1st contest, go backwards 80% of the time and throw a few flashy, very eye-catching punches sporadically, this time he will be given the decision. So GGG has to be more accurate this time, otherwise, he will lose.

I think that 'Nelo wins but more like and MD or a UD. I would be really surprised if this was close enough to be a SD. I just think that Canelo will open up more and probably be comfortably ahead when GGG makes his move. It will be too little, too late for Golovkin. Peace.

I don't think its going to be close, I just think that they would give him that card. One.
