    He has never shown me any indication he knows boxing. He, El Cyclon and El Chicano are all GGG haters.

    I thought GGG won the fight just like the first, what is wrong with the sport of Boxing. In both fights Canelo started strong, in the last fight he started strong and finished strong but lost all the middle rounds, in the second fight Canelo started fast again but GGG won all the other rounds.

    Is the sport of boxing this corrupt where HBO will protect their cash cow? GGG has been robbed twice and he is the 36 year old fighter against a young fighter in his prime.

    Had it a draw but 2 rounds either side is fine with me. Would like to see another rematch.

    Actually I’ve got some sympathy for that view, the lead BT commentator was very Golovkin focused and throughout the fight ignored much of Alvarez work.

    The judges didn't go against you and I, they robbed a man of his ****ing title and his undefeated record. **** your pick and my pick and our cards. That doesn't mean ****.
