    I believe Golovkin clearly won the first fight against Canelo, the second one was closer but he won that one too, the Jacobs fight looked close but he had a knockdown and according to the compubox Golovkin was outlanding him.

    You are such a weak ass and obvious troll. Make the user name Gennady and then constantly spam the board with anti-GGG threads with the purpose of rallying Drugnelo supporters. You think you're being slick and under the radar.

    Jacobs WASN'T close. I have never understood why people think it is. GGG jabbed his head off & was the ring general.. AT BEST Jacobs lost by 3 points.

    Canelo fights, i scored both 115-113 GGG. But i can understand why people think the second a draw...

    Canelo beat ggg in my opinion. Jacobs fell to the jab multiple times

    The Jacob's fight and both Canelo fights were close and could have gone different directions with different judges. When fights are close not sure why we can't just accept the official ruling. That's what rematches are for.

    I thought Jacobs fought a very good fight, the knockdown cost him.

    Canelo and Golovkin fought two very competitive fights, im sick of the arguments about the scoring, fact is Canelo got the decisions.. so it is what it is.

    Both fought very good fights against GG, I will side with Canelo because he didn't get dropped, the knockdown has cost Jacobs again LOL

    I'm a big GGG fan but I had Jacobs very very very narrowly winning. I even watched the fight back again to try and put some bias into it to give the win to GGG but I still had Jacobs winning.

    Canelo-GGG I had it 8-4 and 7-5 GGG.

    Canelo was more aggressive so that skewed some perception bias but GGG was still more effective.

    Jacobs, I had ggg jacobs - 115-112 or 114-113
    And GGG won both Canelo fights 8-4 and 9-3

    The two Canelo fights were a disgrace to boxing and fans better not forget. Not only did Canelo clearly lose but what happened to “to be the champ, you gotta beat the champ”
    Robbing GGG of years of hard work... there is no such thing as an official decision in boxing, football scores are official, tennis scores etc but in boxing the official decision belongs to three corrupt individuals who never boxed in their lives.
