    One of you canelo fan boys posted a response stating the people who stated Canelo won vs GGG in the first fight.
    Yet with only a quick glance, i could see at least 5 who voted the other way without doing any checking.

    But hey, you like to spread lies if it goes with your argument. Good job buddy.

    I liked those old Popeye the sailor man cartoons when I was a kid. Popeye would get in trouble and then he would pop open a can of spinach and become strong and win the day. Canelo reminds me of Popeye.

    Why not provide the list for the first fight ? In which GGG got a vast majority of the votes.

    Or just ignore it as it doesn't fit your narrative ?

    IsaL and Shadow both love calling GGG a hype job with a garbage resume, but acknowledge that both fights were close fights.

    It doesn't matter. I don't judge a fight based on how many people thought who won.

    The only reason I provided that list was because some Canelo haters swear hardly anyone thought Canelo won either fight.

    Plenty of GGG fans have used the %s polled from the first bout to argue that it was a robbery. While the vast majority had GGG winning, that didn't show that the vast majority thought it was a robbery. There were factors about the first bout that resulted in the vast majority having GGG winning without it being a robbery. GGG was unified Champ, GGG was undefeated, GGG outlanded Canelo via Compubox, GGG was the fighter coming forward, etc. The way in which Canelo fought GGG the first time around was unexpected to a lot, many complained Canelo did not show enough aggression, etc.

    It's also important to point out that the poll numbers and media polled %s do not really represent Mexico or the spanish speaking community. There are many factors that resulted in GGG being seen as the overwhelming winner per polls, media, etc. You can isolate several swing rounds from the first match that depending on how you view these close hard to score rounds can flip overwhelming %s indicating that GGG won to overwhelming %s indicating that Canelo won.

    ROFLMAO Loma yes but El Pollo Rojo Moonelo Canelo & the " Cold Eyed Assassin" as you called him. Forget it
    When they fight any opponent that has a legitimate fair chance to win & beat him maybe. Those two dont seem to be capable of doing that though do they

    A few maybe 20 % but 80 % said GGG kicked Canelo's ass TWICE. But GGG got robbed by the judges
    Lara & Trout kicked his ass too

    Buying judges and PED inspectors is not grounds for P4P.

    Im not debating the "magnitude" of the robbery. Im debating the winner by public/expert vote, and the majority had GGG winning.
    The fact some mexican sports journalists had GGG winning speaks volumes.
