Interestingly, it looks like GGG has bulked up a bit, carrying more body fat than normal. Perhaps he's going for power rather than speed. I can't help but think this is a mistake, even though there a couple of months out.

Tactically, GGG likes to let his opponents hit him to show how dominant he is. If he does that with Canelo, there's a chance he could get dropped.

Then again, Canelo did give up his belt, so mentally, he isn't as strong as GGG. If it goes down the stretch, I think GGG has the advantage.

I'm leaning towards Canelo winning via KO.

Thanks. The official reason was, "Give it a rest, you're becoming tiresome", whatever that means.

It just seems some people just weren't willing to have a discussion. Then that thread just descended into some tabloid mockery of a boxing thread where people were discussing wives and posting selfies. Good grief.

Go on then mate. Let's have a sensible discussion without name calling. Feel free to copy and paste the evidence. I'll help you out even, it's from about p.268 or thereabouts.

What did I write that was ban-worthy?
