    **** too hard to score. I had it 6-6. Could make a case for 8-4 either way.

    How do GGG fans have the gall to claim victory when he was running for 70% of the fight

    Canelo brought the pain


    I hate this sport.

    Hopefully Canelo gets the W

    I agree, GGG clear winner here. Lots of people not knowing what they're watching here. GGG was lighting Canelo up all night.

    GGG should get the win or a draw but Canelo showed heart and came to fight tonight. You got to respect that.

    I scored it a draw but can see a canelo win. Great fight, might as well do it a 3rd time! That turned into a great fight.

    Round 1: 10-10 Even
    Round 2: 10-9 Alvarez
    Round 3: 10-9 Alvarez
    Round 4: 10-9 Golovkin
    Round 5: 10-9 Golovkin
    Round 6: 10-9 Alvarez
    Round 7: 10-10 Even
    Round 8: 10-9 Alvarez
    Round 9: 10-9 Golovkin
    Round 10: 10-9 Golovkin
    Round 11: 10-9 Alvarez
    Round 12: 10-9 Golovkin

    115 - 115 even

    I had a hard time scoring round 11 where I almost scored it even as well. I don't like scoring a round where it doesn't seem like either fighter won.

    This time everything between 7-5 GGG, 6-6 and 7-5 Alvarez is fine imo.
    A lot of close rounds.
    On my card GGG edged in the second half.

    He landed enough jabs and straight rights to constantly pop Canelo's head back. Most of Canelo's shots were either blocked or slipped. If you look at the stats, the jab will be a huge difference.

    Scene has it a draw.

    Won't be suprised if they're right this time around
