    And that's why HBO is rooting for Canelo. And one of HBO's former employee's is a judge for this fight. GGG knows he has to get the KO and that's why I think he's vulnerable in this fight. I've never seen GGG under so much pressure and as rattled as he is coming into this fight. My money is on Canelo thi fight

      Oh, for sure. HBO is on life support. DAZN really only has the WBSS going for it. Joshua is a draw but I still don't expect much casual support. I expect mostly hardcores to begrudgingly pay for it.

        He's not ****** enough to go to Showtime. He'd need to rent out one of those towers on The Wire and hold up a liquor store to fight on Showtime.

          Is he rattled? I haven't noticed.

            It's not even an option at HBO, is it? I know Loeffler does the Superfly series but are those even K2 fighters?

              Or he could outstay his visa and fight on telemundo

                  I compared him to Kovalev going into the second fight and everybody jumped on me. And that was before they started complaining about the Tony Weeks and attempting to dictate everything outside the ring. And he's still complaining about the drug tests even though he's getting paid more money now than he would've made in May. Now reading he was mad at HBO because they didn't support him enough to get a fight in May. And Suliaman has said GGG is acting strange. He feels that Canelo is getting special treatment, and he's not wrong. But it's still bothering him.

                      That could be. There is more on the line for Golovkin here. I think he's made of sterner stuff than Kovalev and I hope he isn't honestly expecting to knock Canelo out. That's not happening.
