    GGG won the last 2 rounds to nick the fight.

    He’s old and the power is rapidly declining. He is also taking big punishment now - if he values his health he must leave Canelo alone and pick his next opponent very carefully and have an exit strategy from the sport in place.

    Please, was no robbery tonight. A fight that close can never be a robbery. GGG won in a close fight in my view.

    Agree.the best indicator was the slight nod of acknowledgement by sergey when the scores were read out. Would hate to see ggg get destroyed by Canelo now.

    Nah, had Derevyachenko winning 114-113 but certainly no robbery.

    you can just tell it’s coming. If I was GGG I’d try and make the Saunders fighter or Andrade unification instead.

    114-113 GGG. No robbery, don't like his chances vs Canelo. Should fight Andrade next for belt/DAZN or gets Charlo and somehow mauls him and embarrasses the PBC fanboys. Derevyanchenko looked good, loved his body shots throughout the fight that gave him the rounds he won comfortably.

    Why do haters of a certain fighter call the result a "robbery" whenever he wins a close fight?

    GGG won the fight by 1-2 points. Get over it haters.

    Also you could score it 1-2 points the other way and it wouldn’t have really been a robbery. It was one of those fights. Every round was close.

    For me, GGG won by a point or two. Hearn said he was ill but 40 pro fights and hundreds of amateur bouts have got to put miles on the clock. Father Time is certainly an ass. I would hate to see him ‘beaten’ by Canelo and couldn’t bear to see his name on BJS record now

    I think ggg is going to harm his legacy for money, I see him carrying on win or lose for a good few fights now fighting the likes of BJS Canelo Andrade etc, he is nowhere near the fighter he was.

    I bet DAZN regret giving him a 6 fight deal. Who ever sanctioned that cocked up. I think BJS or Andrade now beat him on points.

    No robbery for me - GGG won by at least 2 rounds in what was a very close competitive fight.

    What is clear is that time has caught up with him and he should retire before mediocre puddings beat him.
