There is absolutely no way in hell I would miss the third fight between Canelo & GGG
Plus tons of random thoughts: AJ fought well in loss; preaching Spence-Crawford patience; my take on Pedraza-Commey card; here's who Teofimo should face next; good/bad of undisputed; MUCH MORE
We are just three weeks away from Canelo Alvarez-Gennadiy Golovkin III. Yes, I am excited and I will be in Las Vegas to cover it as I was for their first two epic fights. There’s no way I would miss this one.
However, some say GGG is too old and that Canelo will wipe him out this time. I don’t buy it. Golovkin has never been in serious trouble or dropped much less wiped out. He has an all-time great chin.

2. It’s for huge stakes — Alvarez’s undisputed super middleweight title.
3. It matches a pair of historic fighters and future first-ballot Hall of Famers.
