\u00c1lvarez<\/strong>, despite losing to Dmitry Bivol last May, is still in his prime. <\/p>\n\n\n\nWe saw two different versions of \u00c1lvarez in their two-fight series heading into this clash. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In their first bout, \u201cCanelo\u201d came in bulked up with the intent to muscle out Golovkin<\/strong>, a strategy that saw him gassed after four rounds and needing judicial intervention to escape with a draw. <\/p>\n\n\n\nThe rematch saw \u00c1lvarez <\/strong>closer to what we see him today as he used pinpoint counters, combinations, and ring generalship to earn a close decision win. <\/p>\n\n\n\nCanelo <\/strong>needs to rely on body punching and timing Golovkin\u2019s jab-heavy offense with a counter right hand, and then let his footwork and upper-body movement avoid his opponent\u2019s charges.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhy Bet on Gennadiy Golovkin<\/h3>\n\n\n\n Golovkin <\/strong>wasn\u2019t as varied in his approach in both fights.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHis tried-and-true pressure style can help him keep up with \u00c1lvarez<\/strong>, but the outcome of the second fight determined that he\u2019s not likely to overtake him now. <\/p>\n\n\n\nWhile Golovkin <\/strong>has a cast iron jaw and excellent conditioning, he\u2019s moving up in weight for the first time in his career to face an opponent who is better than the man who beat him four years ago. <\/p>\n\n\n\nGolovkin <\/strong>has to find a way to limit Alvarez\u2019s movement without sacrificing too much of his energy should the fight head to the later rounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThat said, Gennadiy <\/strong>has unified titles at middleweight since their last fight and likely still runs through the division even in his advanced age.<\/p>\n\n\n\nFinal Betting Analysis – Canelo Alvarez vs. Gennadiy Golovkin<\/h3>\n\n\n\n Golovkin <\/strong>is now in his 40s and though he is still a force of nature in his advanced age, he\u2019s slower to get in gear as seen by his struggles against Sergiy Derevyanchenko and Ryota Murata. <\/p>\n\n\n\nThe switch to trainer Johnathan Banks has only contributed to his decline by making him fight at a slower pace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There\u2019s little doubt that Golovkin <\/strong>will be ready and strong at 168, and \u00c1lvarez <\/strong>is an easy assignment for him considering their history. <\/p>\n\n\n\nHowever, \u00c1lvarez <\/strong>is physically at his best right now and has evolved even further since their two previous controversial bouts. <\/p>\n\n\n\nWe\u2019ve seen him tear through 168 and 175, and Golovkin <\/strong>isn\u2019t going to show him anything he hasn\u2019t seen before. <\/p>\n\n\n\nWhile this fight has the potential to deliver the action, the conclusion doesn\u2019t seem to be in doubt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Canelo has become a better fighter by developing his skill set to compete at a higher weight, whereas Golovkin <\/strong>remains his familiar, formidable self. <\/p>\n\n\n\nWe need to note that these two also don\u2019t like each other. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
And even though it\u2019s been a while, expect hostilities to resume like it was yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
