GGG can only blame himself.

    I hope you are right because he's a cracking bloke and deserves all the best. He's been a great champion and deserves the big paydays now.

    It doesn't matter because he won the fight, do you even understand this?

    I'm sure Golovkin could have knocked him out, he would. But he was against a younger, faster man, who was likely heavier and fighting to survive off the ropes.

    It's not a matter of Golovkin just saying, "To Knock out or not to knock out."

    You are having a real hard time with this and can't even see the corner you painted yourself in.

    Legacy will tell you that GGG was the feared, avoided, undefeated, undisputed Middleweight King who a couple of years past his best dominated a future ATG (Canelo) and was robbed by judges. I think his legacy is gonna be just fine

    He still has the belts and is the champion. I think he'll sleep just fine.

    One of the first signs of real slippage is inability to pull the trigger. And I must say, GGG definitely seemed more hesitant to pull the trigger. He kinda of opened up more towards the end, but by then it was too late.

    I agree with most here. I thought GGG won. Caneló earn my respect today. His upper body movement is probably the best of all active fighters. In a rematch Caneló wins. In my opinion Cotto can spoil that rematch if he fights GGG cause I actually now give him a chance to beat him. GGG looked very slow with his feet.

    Canelo definitely appeared to have more of a speed advantage than I anticipated.

    Oh, please, how is he supposed to KO someone who runs 70% of the fight?

    And a great chin to boot. But let's also give credit to GGG, he took some bombs from Canelo like they were candy.
