    Saul Alvarez W MD 12 = "Canelo did beat Golovkin."

    No difference.


    Oh, you poor, little, disappointed GGG fan. I wasn't asking you, was I?


    I won't.

    Fighters have fainted after the weigh-in and done just fine in the fight. Geale was levelled by a fighter in his mid 30's that only was a small WW in the ring. If that is a top 3 fighter it's a weak division. Same with Lemieux who was embarrassed and outclassed by BJS. And BJS was merely a good boxer, but against Lemieux he looked like bloody Pernell Whitaker.

    And these were Golovkin's better wins, after Jacobs.

    If one can't see that Lemieux, Geale, Murray etc weren't utterly average and at best would be in the lower top 10 in a decent division, they don't know what they're looking at.

    Jacobs and Dereveynchenko were good MW contenders but nothing really special and they both could have gotten the win against GGG.

    Having two close fights with Canelo are good results, no matter how you score them, but in the end he lacks clear signature wins.

    Pirog would have been a good measure of prime GGG but unfortunately we never got to see that one.

    Be honest now. Do you think Vegas hands out draws to a Canelo opponent if it’s a genuine draw ?

    I understand that this type of error gets fanboy keyboard warriors like yourself all excited, but - to be clear - I don't share your thrill at having identified an error, which I explained 5 pages and three days ago. This, even though your pointing it out to me again is the most interesting reply I've seen from you on the subject.

    It was close enough to be called a Draw.
