Title: GGG vs Canelo
Post by: Cory on May 08, 2016, 09:04:06 PM
I'm not a huge boxing fan, but my fuck that'd be the best fight of the last decade IMO, hopefully it comes together and isn't Mayweather/Pacquiao letdown.

Hopefully it goes down at 160lbs.

GGG will KO him.

Not that great of a fight IMO.

It will be great that it will be slugfest but it won't last long and be a war. 

That being said Canelo for all his bluster needs to stop hiding behind Oscar de la Hoya.

Still will be an exciting fight, only other one I'd want to see if Fury/Wilder as any fight that'd prompt any interest from me, and that fight is pretty unlikely.

Yes...all types of yes... someone's getting knocked out.  I am big GGG guy so I will be rooting for him.

It might not be long but it going to be jammed pack with action


Damn auto correct

I'd rather staple my eyelids to my desk than watch Fury fight.

GGG vs. Canelo will happen, it has to happen.  If it doesn't Canelo forfeits his title which would leave him with the black-eye of being "scared".  He really has no choice but to take the fight...unless he wants to lose all respect.

With that said, GGG is too quick for Canelo.  Canelo has the power, but will be burned out early and won't keep up with the speed of GGG should the fight last into the later rounds.

Looks like they are trying to get the fight booked for September 17 and get ATT Stadium ... I sure hope it happens.  Another reason to BBQ drink beer and race war.
