It would have been pretty funny if they actually did end up robbing Canelo. Imagine if GGG actually won 1 more round on the judges scorecards and the fight ended up a Draw. Would have been dejavú.
There's a consensus amongst casuals, Golovkin fans, and the biased media that GGG won the first fight. There's a consensus amongst boxing aficionados and boxers themselves that Golovkin lost the second one. This third fight was a Canelo domination. He wom 9-11 rounds arguably.
Round 1 and the last 4 rounds. Round 1 was questionable but neither guy did much of anything. 9-9 would have been ok. Surely from round 9 onwards GGG was attacking and Canelo noted post fight that he was tired.
Like I said, it would have been blatant to corruption to give a fight to a fighter who at best won 3 rounds.
The last four? Golovkin did a little better in the last four rounds than the first EIGHT, but he still lost two or three of the last four rounds. He still got hit with the cleaner punches.
Ok, we agree to disagree. I still have Canelo winning for sure. It was kind of like Lomachenko-Lopez in that the loser was asleep the first 6 or 8 rounds then woke up.
It did seem to be a lil bit generous toward Triple G But why not? After all he did win the 1st fight. The right dude won so no harm.
Not quite IsaL lol Two of the most notorious Canelo judges did produce a believable card maybe trying to save face huh?? The other didn't care he scored it before the fight obviously We all joke about it but in all seriousness what Floyd , Canelo & a couple more have gotten away with, with no serious punishment, is what has brought boxing to its knees No one believes its a bona fide combat sport today its parr with the WWE. The people running the game decide the winner more that either fighters skills
Show me one Vegas judge that voted for Canelos opponent before the Bivol fight. Remember Adelaides 114-114 & 118-110 lol
