That fight has the potential to be one of the best ever.

I paid for one PPV fight in my life -- Holmes-Cooney in 1982. It was $15. I might pony up for this one, though. Having two guys who actually like to fight -- instead of run -- should make for a pretty compelling bout.

Let's hope they both show up and bang! I'm fired up.

Can't wait. Really interested to see what happens when Canelo gets tagged. Golden Boy has matched him with a lot of terrific fighters, but never punchers. Except, I guess, James Kirkland. Wonder if they know something about his chin. The difference  between Kirkland and Golovkin is the difference between shooting a bullet and throwing it. Gonna be awesome while it lasts.

I am, too. Triple G usually looks relaxed -- with that little smile. Tonight, he almost looks nervous. Don't know if that means anything ...

I’ve got it 2-2 after 4

Someone make a move.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

Here we go. Nice exchange at the end of the 5th.

[Dalton26 16,892]

I’ve got it 3-3 after 6. Cannello with that dirty behind the back punch.

I’ve got GGG up after 7. Looks like he’s really hit his groove now.

Alvarez fading...

[Dalton26 16,892]

Canelo looks like he’s fading.

Can’t knock either guy though. By far two of the best in the world imo.

Canelo landed an absolute bomb in the 9th and GGG looked unphased.

Alvarez about to break.

[Dalton26 16,892]

GGG’s chin is insane. The shots he can take and you wouldn’t think he even got touched.

I’ve got it 8 round to 3 for GGG after 11.

Hell of a fight. I think GGG takes its 9-3 but I’d watch that fight again anyway. Canelo caught a second wind the last few rounds.

It’s a Draw
