    I think Canelo got a draw at best but that isn't my point. A fighter doesn't get a worse score just because he didn't live up to the hype that thousands of mostly casual fans gave him. There are way too many people like me who thought that chance of a TKO in this fight were low.

    LOL! Yeah I'm sure Bob Bennett can't wait to overturn it, you know what he's gonna do with GGG's appeal?
    Same thing police chiefs do with citizen complaints - throw them in the trash.

    Lara is pretty decent at it too.

    Come to think of it, didn't Canelo criticise Lara for his perpetual running / backpedalling during their fight?

    GGG has a titanium chin, yes. But I don't think it's fair to compare a welterweight blown up to junior middleweight who had a glass chin versus a legitimate middleweight.

    Some people's logic here is really astounding. Before the fight it was "GGG will lose, Canelo will KO him make him look like a fool etc etc." Now after the fight it's "GGG lost, he didn't knock Canelo out so he's overrated. Canelo showed heart and stayed in there etc etc etc."

    "Adelaide Byrd" and the word "kill" need to be in the same headline tomorrow on the news.

    Something like "fat Hoe judge Adelaide Byrd killed after robbing Triple G"

    Look we've seen it before and all fans of Canelo should be ashamed of what Oscars done to him,how can any boxing fan enjoy watching their man when they know that one judge is already in the pocket,think about that cause Canelo has a decent chin so it's all rigged so he can't lose,Canelo should be ashamed and deep down he might be as he seems an ok guy.
