    Well let’s hear it. Who did you think won and how did you score the rematch? I had it 115-113 GGG.

    Golovkin, 7 rounds to 5. I just can't possibly find a way to give Canelo more rounds than that.

    116-112 Golovkin. Canelo should be ashamed of himself for celebrating, he knows Oscar bought the win.

    I had 117-111 Golovkin. I could see it 115-113 Golovkin with a couple of close rounds where you just pick what style you preferred. But sorry, it was a definite and clear GGG win, and as a boxing fan, I'm gutted tonight.

    8-4 Golovkin but some of the rounds were close. Golovkin won to me though and that's what most people think from what I've read.

    You must have ignored his jab.

    GGG. He was outlanding Canelo most of the rounds and GGG also landed the most significant punches towards the end.

    I got a similar scorecard to the judges, basically is you start the fight with GGG -4 rounds as the judges do, you get a similar result.

    115-113 GGG. Good fight, but GGG is the champ and canelo did nothing to take it away from him.

    Scores: Feldman 114-114, Moretti and Weisfeld 115-113 each for Canelo Alvarez. Alvarez is your WBA-WBC and linear champion. I think Canelo won.

    GGG won. I think the classic mistake of scoring for the other guy because GGG 'is normally the come forward fighter but look he's not doing that now' is at play here. You have to look at them objectively as just fighters...take the person out of it and score like that. I THINK you've got GGG winning by a few rounds based on a superior jab and coming on very strong in the second half of the fight.
