    I remember reading several prefight posts saying that GGG couldn't win a decision. If you're part of that crowd you probably see a 3rd fight as pointless.

    Most people know you need to win at least 9 rounds to beat Canelo. Floyd needed 12 for a draw with 1 judge.

    Yup. I knew that without a KD Golovkin was going to get shafted. Maybe even with a KD. Even though he landed some huge bombs in the 12th and wobbled Canelo they still gave him the round. He should have told Canelo to rematch in New York or gtfo.

    the fact that this has become a norm for us fans shows how disgusting and corrupt the sport is, feel for golovkin because hes had it the hard way and when hes fought to get big victorys like these he gets robbed badly.

    Canelo enjoys the same hometown Vegas judging as Joshua does in London. It's all about money.

    Huh? Canelo won fairly. I had GGG winning clearly in the first fight, before the judges read their scores in this fight I said draw or Canelo by one round.

    Fairly predictable tbf, GGG sold out knowing in all likelihood this would happen, after the first he could have left it and fought Saunders which would have been as much as a legacy fight. He'll live a rich life now but he had pretty much zero chance of winning minus a KO.

    GGG landed way more punches in this fight than he did in their first bout!

    Canelo has lost about 4 fights where he got the decision

    Joshua has never lost a fight. Period
