GGG clearly won 9 rounds. But Golden Boy Promotions had Canelo's back, and had given the three judges clear instructions on what to do in case Golovkin clearly outboxed Canelo over 12 rounds. Adelaide Byrd's wide scorecard for Canelo served to make the draw look plausible. The judge who had it a draw obviously had the job of expressing that result. Dave Moretti's scorecard of only 115-113 for GGG served the purpose of making people think that Golovkin couldn't have won the fight by a wide margin. Do not allow yourself to be hypnotized by these crafty snake-oil salesmen. Oscar De La Hoya has done this before. He paid a judge to hand in a scorecard in his favor over Mayweather, to make him look good, as in "I lost to Floyd, but only by split decision". Oscar then paid off a judge to score Canelo vs Floyd 114-114, to make it look like Canelo lost to Floyd only by majority decision - not unanimous. He also paid Adelaide Byrd to give Hopkins a favorable scorecard against Calzaghe. Again, it's all to make the Golden Boy fighter look better. Golovkin schooled Canelo 117-111. That's reality.
GGG won it wide. They should investigate the guy who scored it even. Moretti is in the clear. By having GGG wide, you can afford to be generous to Canelo late and give him plenty of those rounds.
Good post. Probably Byrds role was to deflect attention away from the OVERALL scam. It simple arithmetic really - easily done.
It's almost a shame people think this is incompetence. Boxing is so blatantly corrupt and people still think judges are just stupid.
7-5 GGG could be 8-4 . anything more then 8-4 is pushing it... it was closer to 6-6 then 9-3 GGG ....
All three? So are you saying Moretti was bought too when his card was for GGG or that was part of the ruse?
GGG could still have won with just Byrds card. I doubt they left it to chance like that. To GUARANTEE that Canelo would be saved the other judges had to be in on it. Certainly the drawn score was a fix. A fair score would be 116-112 GGG.
I suspect Byrds role was to draw so much attention to herself that she would distract attention from the other two judges scores.
The OP is coming across as too biased and conspiratorial to be taken seriously lol. I mean yeah that's all possible but it's mere speculation. Fans are just gonna believe what they want to believe.
Been going on for some time not just the fight at the weekend....We keep saying something has to be done but nothing ever eventuates....I have told my Kid's for Years that Boxing is the Greatest Sport on Earth...and over the past 10 Years or more they have dropped off this once Great Sport...something Our Family have been involved with for many Years...They say to me it's become Like World Championship Wrestling...The results are generally already known no matter what Happens in the Fight...I rang them and said watch the Golovkin V Canelo Fight it may Change your mind.....Big Mistake this disgrace has finished them I think...they are Jumping Ship to MMA and I for one can understand it....
Good job. I have the same score. All 3 judges follow a script. Canelo just have to be appear fighting which he did for 30 seconds each round and they will award him the round.
