The so called fight of the decade is on tomorrow night.
Both boxers are fearsome and between them they have won 88 of their 90 fights, drawn 1 and lost 1 - and even that loss was to Mayweather.
Golovkin has stopped 33 out of 37 opponents and his record is fought 37, won 37!
At 35 he is older than Canelo but has boxed considerably less rounds than him 172 to 353 - which is a phenomenal difference normally - it's like fighting twice the amount that GGG has - and in theory getting hit twice as much too.
Canelo however seems to be improving his performances recently if that is remotely possible!
A very hard bout to call - it could be over with the first punch, be as boring as hell if they both fear the other, or an all out war between them.
I think I would edge Canelo to win but I can't say it with much confidence.
An eagerly anticipated bout - I hope it lives up to its billing!
Anybody going to stay up for it?
