Canelo vs GGG Betting Odds

The following odds are courtesy of BetOnline:

  • Canelo Alvarez (-260)
  • Gennady Golovkin (+200)

The opening odds for BetOnline have Canelo as a sizable favorite despite the first two fights being razor thin.

However, these odds change with each sportsbook you look at. William Hill has Canelo listed at -200 and GGG at +150. Sportsbook.ag has the odds even at -115 apiece.

If you are looking to jump on the opening lines and you believe that Canelo will win then don’t hesitate. Place your wagers on the -115 odds. However, if you are looking at betting on GGG then go with the +200 odds as that offers great value.

The First Canelo vs GGG Fight

In September 2017, these two stars met in the ring for the first time. It was a mega-fight that fans and pundits were clamoring for. Canelo opened as an underdog of +138 and closed at +161 odds. Golovkin was a favorite opened as a -175 favorite and closed at odds of -191.

The first fight ended in controversy as it was ruled a split draw. However, many credible media outlets had GGG winning the fight as the stats showed that he landed more punches in 10 of 12 rounds than Alvarez did.

At the heart of the controversy was judge Adalaide Byrd’s scoring who had Canelo win 118-110. Outlets like ESPN and HBO had GGG winning 116-112. The other two judges had it 115-113 for GGG and a 114-114 draw.

The aftermath of this fight left a bad taste in the mouth of fans and pundits. It also led to a rematch one year later.

The Rematch Between Canelo and GGG

The rematch was originally supposed to take place on May 5th, 2018, but Canelo failed a drug test for clenbuterol two months before the bout was to take place. It forced the rematch to take place on September 15th, 2018, instead.

Alvarez opened as the underdog with odds of +150 and closed at +169. Once again, GGG was the favorite with an opening of -170 and a closing of -233.

And, just like with the first fight, this one also ended in controversy. Canelo Alvarez was awarded the win via majority decision. Two judges scored it 115-113 for Canelo and the third judge had it as a 114-114 draw.

However, like with the first matchup, the majority of media outlets thought Golovkin won and were protesting the outcome. Of the 18 boxing media outlets polled on the outcome, 10 of them had GGG winning. Seven of the outlets had it as a draw and only one boxing outlet had Alvarez winning.

GGG landed more punches than Alvarez just like in the first fight. Unfortunately for Golovkin, the judges felt that Canelo did more and he suffered the first loss of his career.

Not So Fast

It’s exciting that these two rivals have agreed to a third contest. However, we need to take this all in stride because both men will participate in another fight before then.

Vegas Odds For Canelo Vs Ggg

In the beginning of June, Canelo Alvarez is supposed to take on Billy Joe Saunders for a title unification bout at the 168 pound weight class. Golovkin will take on mandatory middleweight title challenger Kamil Szeremeta also around the same time.

Ggg Vs Canelo Prediction

Currently, there are no betting odds for the GGG fight, but Canelo is a large betting favorite over Saunders with odds ranging from -600 to -700. The unbeaten Saunders (29-0, 14 KOs) is a sizable underdog with odds listed from +400 to +500.

Las Vegas Odds For Canelo Vs Ggg

I believe both GGG and Canelo will win their respective bouts, but as we saw in Tyson Fury’s fight last year against an underdog in Otto Wallin, injuries can happen. And, if there’s an injury in either Canelo’s or GGG’s fight this June then it could delay the big trilogy contest this fall.

Early Predictions for Canelo vs GGG III

Golovkin has been chasing after Canelo since their rematch in 2018. GGG believes that he won both fights and wants to get revenge for the controversial losses. In fact, Golovkin signed with DAZN just to get closer to a third contest with Canelo as Alvarez is DAZN’s top signed fighter.

With DAZN, promoters and fans around the world pushing for a third fight, the sport will finally get what they’ve been waiting for. Because these two men have become bitter rivals, this fight will do big numbers. Other than Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua, this is the biggest fight in boxing today.

As for betting on this fight, as mentioned above, make sure to shop for the best lines so that you can get the best value. I’m a fan of GGG, but I believe Canelo has taken his game to another level. He’s also gone up and down in weight to collect gold from different divisions.

I thought GGG won at least one of the first two fights, if not both of them. However, I’m taking Canelo in this trilogy fight. He’s showed good form over his last three fights in beating Sergey Kovalev, Danny Jacobs and Rocky Fielding.

Canelo might have questions surrounding his stamina, and GGG can certainly push the pace to capitalize on it, but I feel Canelo has learned from their first two contests and he will be the better man in this trilogy bout.

WBA (Super), WBC and The Ring super-middleweight champion Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez defends his newly-acquired belts for the first time on Saturday in Miami, just two months after picking them up.

Canelo outpointed Callum Smith in a dominant display in December to enter the champions' enclosure at 168lbs, and if he can defeat mandatory challenger Avni Yildirim as expected he can move on to an attempt at unifying the division.

Odds For Canelo Vs Ggg

WBO champion Billy Joe Saunders and IBF kingpin Caleb Plant are both undefeated and will relish the opportunity to stop Alvarez's scintilating run, but first the Mexican star must not only make a statement against his Turkish adversary but do so without picking up even a minor injury that would leave a Cinco de Mayo fight night up in the air.

Here are the latest odds and expert predictions for Canelo vs. Yildirim.

Canelo Alvarez vs. Avni Yildirim odds

  • Canelo: 1/50
  • Yildirim: 14/1
  • Draw: 30/1

(All odds via Unikrn)

Unikrn unsurprisingly has Canelo as the overwhelming favorite to win. Canelo has only ever been defeated as a professional by the legendary Floyd Mayweather, a result that took place way back in 2013. The Mexican is now at his physical peak and arguably his optimal weight class, and although Yildirim has earned a fair title shot, his resume isn't particularly dazzling and his two career losses came in his two most challenging encounters to date.

Will the fight go the distance?

  • Yes: 8/1
  • No: 1/20

Method of victory

  • Canelo by KO/TKO/DQ: 1/10
  • Canelo by decision: 8/1
  • Yildirim by KO/TKO/DQ or submission: 18/1
  • Yildirim by decision: 25/1

Canelo Alvarez vs. Avni Yildirim predictions

Here are the expert predictions for Canelo vs. Yildirim, which airs live Saturday Feb. 27 on DAZN worldwide and on TV Azteca in Mexico .

Barak Bess: Yildirim won't last the distance with Canelo

“You’re asking me how this fight’s gonna play out? First of all, you gotta judge a man by his resume, so who has Avni Yildirim fought? He got knocked out by Chris Eubank Jr in three rounds. He also fought a very good fighter, former two-time champ, in Anthony Dirrell. That fight was stopped in the 10th round but on one judge’s scorecard, Avni was winning. So he’s not green, he’s a good fighter. But there’s levels to this and if I was homeland security I’d say Yildirim is a low level threat while Canelo is a severe threat. So can Yildirim last 12 rounds? I don’t know which round it happens, but I don’t think he does.'

Akin 'Ak' Reyes: Knockout - it ends within six rounds

'There’s no question in my mind that Canelo comes out on top. Now, boxing is the theatre of the unexpected so there’s no telling what could happen, but highly unlikely. I feel Canelo wants to make a serious statement. I think he goes to the body early and looks for a stoppage.This fight does not go the distance and I feel it ends within six rounds. Canelo won’t get the credit he deserves because of the opponent, but he will beat Avni Yildirim.'

Sergio Mora: A similar result to 'GGG' Golovkin's last fight

Odds For Canelo Vs Ggg

'Look, I respect Avni Yildirim and he’s got Joel Diaz in his corner. He’s been training hard, and it’s the opportunity of a lifetime for him. And he’s confident: he feels he can beat the number one fighter on the planet. But there are levels to this game and I just don’t think he is fast enough, strong enough or punches hard enough. I see him getting stopped as soon as Canelo lands something big. Yildirim, if he practices what he preaches, is going to go out on his shield and he will fight back but I just don’t see him doing so past the middle rounds. I think Yildirim is to Canelo what Szeremeta was to Golovkin, and that’s a stay-busy fight.'

Chris Mannix: Yildirim will revert to type

'No question there is a big talent gap between Canelo and Yildirim. So, the only question is how this fight will end. I think Canelo is going to get a knockout. Joel Diaz said that he has trained Yildirim differently for this fight and that he’s going to attack from different angles. But ultimately, the bout will become a firefight and Avni will revert back to what he knows. When that happens, I think he will put himself in a position to get knocked out.'

Keith Idec: He couldn't handle Eubank, won't handle Canelo

'Yeah, I think Canelo will win this fight by knockout. He’s too big, too strong, too skilled and has an incredible chin. Yildirim is a tough guy and he will come forward but I think that will be his downfall. I don’t think the fight lasts more than five or six rounds. Canelo is a tall order for anyone in boxing and Yildirim isn’t a top five fighter at 168lbs. He’ll be there to be hit, he isn’t the best defensive fighter and he’s been blown out before against Eubank Jr. I don’t know that Canelo will get him out there that quick, but he will get him out there in short order.'
