Last minute Breadman mailbag before the fight:

Bread’s Response: My gut feeling is that Canelo is on. He’s just on point. I feel as though GGG will have to be better than he ever has been in the past to win. I looked at Canelo, he’s locked in differently. I watched his workouts he is really sharp. He has a distinct advantage in mind quickness. The ability to process and react. Although I favor GGG my guts tell me the politics of boxing has lined the stars up for Canelo. The timing of this fight is when one fighter is rising and hot in Canelo. The other has looked stagnant and aging in GGG. One is 27 the other is 35. The fight will take place on a Mexican Holiday Weekend. The crowd will go nuts everytime Canelo lands a shot. He will land plenty. GGG is not hard to hit. Crowd energy is hard to ignore by judges they are human. The mood seems to be against GGG.

I’m picking GGG to win because I know in my heart he’s a great fighter. I know one when I see one. And he’s going to have to be one to overcome the energy against him. I can’t shake this feeling that the fight will look like Chavez vs Taylor with GGG being Chavez and Canelo being Taylor. The question is can he get him late. Taylor just simply “got off” too much for Chavez. Chavez loses that fight against that version of Taylor 9 out of 10 times. The one time he won it, was the day he won it on. GGG is going to have to have one of those fortunate days on 9-16. I think he can but I’m warning all of the GGG fans it won’t be easy and early on you guys won’t like how it’s going.


Canelo and GGG are testing VADA for their fight. That’s a good thing. But it’s not the only thing. When the actual testing started is more important. If a fighter knows when he will be tested he can simply do a cycle before they sign up for testing. Watch for the fighter that secretly trains really hard long before the fight is signed. It may look like he’s going to overtrain 3 months out but he won’t. He’s getting the benefit of his PED before the testing starts. Now you’re onto something….

Let me be clear...

It's not that I'm rooting for GGG.
Both fighters have pissed me off in the past on the way to getting this fight made.

I just think GGG has a slight edge in power and he didn't crumble under a very tough fight with Jacobs (you can debate whether Jacobs won that fight, but that's separate). That was a good test.
Meanwhile Canelo hasn't fought anybody that was a real challenge since maybe Erislandy Lara.
