Canelo Alvarez Vs. Gennady Golovkin. Boxers make their predictions

The rematch between Canelo Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin will be on September 15. Few boxers have expressed their feelings and named their favorites. The best woman’s fighter in the world Cecilia Braekhus made her prediction: “I’m on the GGG train,” Braekhus told Forbes. Yes, but since Braekhus has fought on Golovkin’s undercards before, is that an objective pick? “Objectively, GGG,” she said laughing. “I think he’s very motivated. In boxing, motivation is a pretty big deal. Extra motivation takes you through tough sparring sessions, the worst ones where your whole body is aching, and you still find that motivation to push out the final rounds even though you are dead tired.” Daniel Jacobs : “We don’t know how Canelo will be post-[suspension],” Jacobs said, via Fighthype.com. “We have to see. But I know Triple G is going to come and be the same. … It’ll be the same results, because I thought he won the first time.” Golovkin barely beat Jacobs in March 2017, so Jacobs might be a little biased in his pick. Carl Frampton: “It’s going to be a close fight again,” Frampton toldBT Sport. “Obviously, with the circumstances surrounding the last fight, the dope test, I think  … I hope Golovkin wins.” Shane Mosley: “I’m going with GGG, because he’s bigger and he has power, and he’s consistent and he’s strong and fearless and he goes in there and he fights,” Mosley told the Mayweather Boxing Channel. “I think Canelo is the better technician, but GGG is a little too big for him in the weight class at 160. It’s kind of like when I fought Winky Wright at 154. I punch hard, but when I was punching him, I didn’t feel like it was doing anything. Canelo is probably going to be in the same thing. He has good sting, but I think GGG is too big for him.”
