    We are talking about the paat 7 days. Thanks for agreeing that GGG was straight trash last week and lost several rounds if not all. today we saw a new, sharp and improved canelo who was toying with an undefeated champion. Am i clear enough now?

    No he lost 1 round, maybe 2 to one of the best WW's in the sport, who should be a JMW. Canelo beat a Euro level punching bag who blocks punches with his head, and it still took him 9 rounds to stop him. Get it straight.

    Fun night of boxing! My girl drew the 9th, I drew the 8th. She got the jackpot!

    Canelo delievered and looked exceptional. Big props to Smith. The Mexican Scott.

    The best part about that is that Brook is better than Khan. AND the size difference was smaller between GGG and Brook than it was with Smith and Canelo lmao.

    I think part of though is that people just look at the finish itself and not the whole fight. If you just look at the ending of the Khan/Canelo fight it looks brutal and maybe that is clouding the memory of that one.

    So you had Kahn winning all the rounds up to the stoppage? WTF has happened to you? SMH

    GGG did not even stop Brook, it was a premature stoppage

    ''Brook was winning world-middleweight title clash by two rounds according to one judge at ringside

    NOT one judge at ringside had Gennady Golovkin winning when Kell Brook was pulled out of their world middleweight title clash.''

    ...Why did you give Brook the 4th? Serious question. I am very curious to hear the reasoning behind this.

    Guys, Golovkin is now a huge underdog to ATG TBE Canelo. I mean, if Golovkin somehow managed to eek out a victory against the Mexican warrior, his ATG legacy will be cemented.

    IIRC, I think Brook got off the best shots of the round, I may have to rewatch it again though..

    Yeah definitely rewatch it and get back with me. I think on first viewing since everyone expected GGG to damn near kill Brook with his first punch and the passionate crowd reacted so vehemently with every solid punch he landed that we factored that into our scoring of the fight. Go in with no bias and tune out the crowd. That fight got ugly for Brook after the 2nd round and each round was getting worse and worse for him.

    All you have to do is backtrack canelos last 10 opponents and compare them to GGG last 10 opponents. Point proven.....

    No I gave Khan the first 4 rounds as did most people scoring along on the RBR. The 5th was close, but I gave it to Nelo.

    My head is just spinning with how awesome Canelo is. Golovkin has no chance in this fight.
