    Perhaps the most unintentionally ironic and utterly hilarious post of the night.

    They left them be up to the 4th, but then it got so bad, even they had to whip out their erasers.:sisi1

    Canelo fans(me among them) accepted the loss, and some of us even called it. The crying seems to be coming from all you Canelo haters who for some reason still sound bitter.

    I’d never really seen much of Bivol before this but that guy is quality.

    Yeah I'm bitter that the score wasn't 8-4 or 9-3 for Bivol which it could have been

    That's what I said. Canelo cannot fight the way he did in the 2 previous fights. Not working behind the jab, no head movement, just loading up on power shots. That works on lesser opponents.

    He's a class act, as always. Never makes excuses, never cries about decisions or storms off without giving an interview. He knew he lost, gave full credit to Bivol.

    In the press conference he just said that he thought he definitely won the fight and that he lost only 4 maybe 5 rounds at most ;)

    They aren't pre-filled. They are pre-paid and communicating somehow. A lot of the time with these crooked judges you'll see two of them be in sync but not all three, which is either to give the appearance of independence or because you only need to bribe two judges to win.
