Obviously Canelo has the advantage because he won the last fight, and if you will look at the previous post, you will see that Canelo is heavily favored in this fight. You can bet on Canelo to win, but mind you, the betting odds are very low, hence your winning will not be as much if you win.
Canelo didn't won the last fight (Canelo vs Golovkin 2) fairly. It was more like a draw, but the jury favored Canelo.
Lol. True. I had it 116-112 for GGG maybe because his jabs were crisp and solid just like power shots too. But looking at the punch stats round by round separating power shots and jabs, we can say it's a draw at 114-114. Two official scorecards where Canelo won, 115-113 are also possible because some rounds were close. The other official scorecard was 114-114, a draw.
And if you want to talk about the recent form, then GGG is at an advantage due to his comprehensive win against the Japanese boxer Ryōta Murata. On the other hand, Canelo lost to Russian boxer Dmitry Bivol, who was almost unknown before the fight. One thing that may favor Canelo is that he has the home advantage, as Golovkin is not based in the US. But I definitely don't agree with the betting odds, for reasons I posted previously.
So maybe this is a good time to bet a good amount of money on GGG. I do agree with the odds though. For me, GGG's last performance proved that his body and reflexes depreciated a lot. And that's not a good sign because he will move up 8 pounds higher against Canelo. GGG will be receiving heavier blows from a much better version of Canelo he faced some years ago. And I felt like Canelo's lost to Bivol is driving him to be become more motivated. He seemed more serious, he wants to make his fight with GGG something personal with his shallow reasons.
I think GGG lives more in the US the Canelo. It's just that there are too many Mexicans, Mexican-Americans and Latinos in the US that will cheer for him.
