GGG won 7 rounds to 5. Golden Fishnet promotions bought the winning rounds. Boxing fans lost. AGAIN !
I had it a draw, but would love to dissect it again because I seemed to be against the grain in quite a few of my rounds. Golovkin/Canelo 10-9 9-10 (19-19) 9-10 (28-29 Canelo) 10-9 (38-38) 10-9 (48-47 Golovkin) 9-10 (57-57) 9-10 (67-66 Canelo) 9-10 (77-75 Canelo) 10-9 (86-85 Canelo) 10-9 (95-95) 10-9 (105-104 Golovkin) 9-10 (114-114)
GGG by 2. He was jabbing ginger's head off the the 2nd half of the fight. Still it's a Moooot point. We all know how corrupt baaxing is in Vegas.
I give Canelo 4 rounds at best. He was missing all night while getting hit with jabs and straight rights. https://i2-prod.mirror.co.uk/incomi.../s615b/0_Screen-Shot-2018-09-16-at-052328.png Here are official scorecards. Some of the rounds are clearly off, but the last round is the dead give away. No way Canelo won the last round. That was a fill in to give Canelo the decision.
Immediate rematch. Fuk that ****. No way Canelo won 6 or more rounds Oscar & GBP should be tarred and feathered You guys are too easily influenced by the awful HBO broadcast too They can't see ****. Lampley & Max are exclaiming at half the punches that hit shoulder, glove or outright glance. Max is divorced from reality talking about """the narrative""" while the fight is happening TV / Monitors for judges are a must. Make them watch in slow motion Walking down shouldn't win fights, clean, flush punches wins fights. 8-4 GGG, 7-5 at worst... I can only excuse casuals for scoring it a draw
I thought GGG was flagging a little in the middle rounds, constantly breathing heavily and looking at the mercy of Canelo's speed, and I thought a huge part of that was the significant body work put in by Canelo. Like I say, look forward to rewatching. Was an excellent fight and picking a side in a finely balanced duel between Canelo's body work and Golovkin's jab was difficult (I thought power shots upstairs were largely equal).
Ggg. Both guys deserve respect. However both guys didn't look very good overall. I think GGG is getting way old and Canelo took a lot of punishment in these last two fights. I don't think they will ever be the same after this.
