Boxing Odds Canelo Vs Ggg
It has been just more than a year since the sporting world stopped what they were doing and tuned in to the biggest pay-per-view event in recent memory. You probably know what I'm talking about without even mentioning it; that's how captivating it was. If you don't, well shame on you for missing out. I'm talking about the Floyd Mayweather vs Connor McGregor 'fight' that took place on Aug. 26, 2017. Now, while it was more of a sideshow than a legitimate boxing match, it did serious pay-per-view numbers and got boxing fans wanting more.
Well, on Sept. 15, 2018, at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, boxing fans will get what they want. Canelo Alvarez will step into the ring against Gennady Golovkin in what boxing fans are calling a highly-anticipated rematch.

The Mexican sensation and the Kazakh KO king battle for middleweight supremacy at the T-Mobile Arena on Saturday. Ahead of the hotly-anticipated fight, Sportsmail details all you need to know.
Their first bout couldn't have happened at a better time. Both boxers were at the peak of their powers and had their eyes set on the biggest of prizes. That's why what transpired on Sept. 16, 2017, was shocking and unfortunate for both opponents. The fight ended in a draw. One judge scored the bout 113-115 in favor of Golovkin, and another scored it 118-110 in favor of Alvarez. The deciding judge scored the bout 114-114, and just like that the result is history. Both fighters feel they got robbed of a deserved win, and the boxing world was left scratching its head.
Before we get into breaking down the fight and previewing the undercard, a little background on the rematch would be a good idea. The rematch was supposed to take place on May 5, but Alvarez tested positive for a banned substance called Clenbuterol in February, thus postponing the rematch. Since then, Golovkin and his camp have thrown increasingly vicious verbal assaults at the Canelo camp, claiming that Alvarez knew what he was taking and tried to cheat on purpose. Alvarez claimed the failed drug test was from 'tainted' meat, but that has not been proven either way yet. With all the back and forth between these two fighters and the personal attacks, more so than the standard trash talking, this fight feels personal and it should live up to its billing as the most highly-anticipated fight of the year.
Canelo vs. GGG Undercard
Co-Main Event: WBO Jr. Middleweight Title
Jaime Munguia -5000 vs Brandon Cook +1400
Munguia is a 21-year-old prodigy out of Mexico who checks in with a record of 30-0 with 25 wins coming via TKO. He successfully defended his WBO title against Liam Smith and now must face Brandon Cook, a 32-year-old fighter from Ajax, Ontario Canada. Cook owns a 20-1 record with 13 wins coming via TKO.
Middleweight:
David Lemieux -190 vs Gary O'Sullivan +150
Lemieux is a 29-year-old fighter from Montreal, Quebec, and he owns a 39-4 record with 33 wins by TKO. He won his last bout against Karim Achour via unanimous decision and will be looking for a similar result in this one. His opponent, Gary O'Sullivan, checks in with a record of 28-2, with 20 of those wins coming via TKO. He hasn't lost since 2015, which makes that six consecutive victories.
Super Flyweight:
Roman Gonzalez (off) vs Moises Fuentes (off)
Gonzalez is 31 and hails from Nicaragua. He has an impressive 46-2 record, including 38 wins by TKO. He enters this fight on a two-match losing streak and will be eager to get the job done. His opponent, Fuentes, is 30-years-old and owns a record of 25-5-1 with 14 TKO's. Much like Gonzalez, Fuentes has lost three of his last four fights, so he'll be motivated to emerge victorious.
Tale of the Tape: Alvarez vs Golovkin
Canelo Alvarez is 28-years-old and hails from Guadalajara, Mexico. His professional boxing record is 49 wins, one loss and two draws. Of those 49 wins, 34 of them have come via TKO.

He has a 70.5-inch reach and will fight from the orthodox stance.
Gennady Golovkin is a 36-year-old boxer out of Karaganda, Kazakhstan, who currently resides in Los Angeles. His professional boxing record is blemish free.

He has already fought once this year - in May against Vanes Martirosyan - and he secured a KO win in the second round.

Canelo vs. GGG Odds, Fight Analysis and Prediction
If the first fight is any indication, we know what to expect for the most part. It will be Golovkin's prerogative to dictate the pace of the fight and be the more aggressive fighter. At 36 and with a fight already under his belt this year, Golovkin checks in as -155 favorite , and the total rounds is set at 'over' 9.5 (-350).

One has to wonder how Alvarez will be in his first fight after serving his six-month suspension and fighting for the first time since last year. If Alvarez can once again land effective counter-punches and throw solid combinations then he should be able to keep Golovkin at bay and stay off the ropes - a place Alvarez can't afford to be for the majority of the fight. Both fighters have a high boxing IQ, so I'm expecting both guys to come into this fight with a solid game plan, a Plan B and possibly Plan C on how they want to attack each other. Alvarez will be best served to start fast and avoid putting it in the judge's hands as many pundits think Golovkin won the early and middle portion of the previous bout by dictating pace and utilizing his jab effectively. The Kazakh not only threw 132 more jabs than Canelo, but he also landed nearly 30 percent of them, in comparison to just 23 percent from the Mexican. If that trend continues and Golovkin can out-punch his opponent, he should be the one with his arms raised at the end of the bout.
Another key component to this this will be the reach advantage that 'GGG' has over Alvarez. When a fighter has the reach advantage and the presumed power advantage then they would be wise to utilize that reach and try to prevent their opponent from getting inside and going to work. Golovkin's' high boxing IQ should help him understand his role, and because of that we like Golovkin to emerge victorious (officially) in this bout.

On September 16, undefeated boxer Gennady Golovkin will square off against Canelo Alvarez in the most highly anticipated boxing title fight of the year. Both fighters are well-known in the sport due to their electrifying knockout power. Both fighters have over 30 knockouts in their professional careers and each fighter will look to add another one to their collection on Saturday night.
Gennady Golovkin, the slight favorite in this contest, boasts a professional boxing record of 37 wins and no losses. Known for his vicious power and fast reflexes, Golovkin has always overpowered his opponents throughout his career and has 33 knockout victories to show for it. Golovkin has become a boxing star and has been given the nickname “GGG” or “Triple G” because his first, middle and last names all start with the same letter. Originating in Kazakhstan, one could not have predicted the type of popularity and stardom that he has received in the United States. If Golovkin can defeat Alvarez, he might become the unofficial face of boxing and could be considered to be the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6z-YUG9ziSsGolovkin’s opponent, Canelo Alvarez, is definitely a worthy opponent. Alvarez has a professional boxing record of 49-1-1 with his one loss coming to Floyd Mayweather Jr. back in 2013. Since that defeat, Alvarez has won seven straight fights including a victory over Liam Smith for the WBO Light Middleweight title. Alvarez was always considered to be a phenomenal boxer in his home country of Mexico. However, Alvarez was relatively unknown in the United States before defeating “Sugar” Shane Mosley in 2012. Alvarez’s fame and popularity continued to rise and hit its peak with his vicious knockout against Amir Khan in 2016. After the Khan and Smith fights, Alvarez had to defeat Mexican legend Julio Cesar Chavez (50-3-1) which he did in a unanimous decision. At long last, Alvarez will have a chance to defeat arguably the best boxer in the world and will look to blemish Golovkin’s undefeated record. If Alvarez can successfully pull off this slight upset, Alvarez will become the premier name in the sport if boxing.

I personally believe that this will be the best boxing fight fans will see for several years. The amount of uncertainty and unpredictability present within this fight adds to the anticipation and to the excitement. Both fighters possess elite punch power and can win the fight at any moment with one clean shot. Alvarez is eight years younger than his opponent so one might assume that he has better stamina. However, both fighters are in phenomenal shape and I expect this fight to be extremely even throughout.
As for my prediction, I am going to side with Golovkin by decision. I think that Golovkin will start to wear Alvarez down in the middle rounds similarly to every fighter that GGG has fought in the past. I think that Alvarez will hit Golovkin with multiple combinations throughout the entire fight but I think that Golovkin is simply on a different level and will use his vast array of strikes to make Alvarez extremely uncomfortable.
