    Judges were generous to GGG in the second fight tbh. No way was that a draw, clear Canelo win.

    Fury I thought did enough to get the win but it was closer fight than people made out. A draw was acceptable.

    Ward-Kovalev I was a very close fight where the hometown fighter got the nod. Rematch squashed any controversy.

    It cannot be legitimately argued that kovalev and GGG we're robbed in their second fights with ward and Canelo. Kovalev was stopped after illegally bending over at the waste because he couldn't take any more punishment. A smart fighter who wanted to continue would have at the very least went to a knee. He didn't. GGG fought well vs Canelo but Canelo fought well vs GGG. Plenty of people fans and pros saw it for canelo

    As far as the 1st Canelo GGG fight, sure Trella gave Canelo the 7th, probably GGG's best round of the whole fight, a round that I can agree that GGG should have won, but at the same time, what about round 4 and round 6, these are rounds that Canelo should have won, and all 3 judges gave G the 4th, and 2 of the 3 judges gave G the 6th. I think one of the reasons Trella gave Canelo the 7th was because he had given G 3 close rounds in a row, rounds that could have easily gone to Canelo.

    So sure if you isolate the 7th and say if Trella would have given that to G, G would have won, OK but at the same time if he would have given either the 4th of the 6th to Canelo, Canelo would have won. Aside from Byrd, the other 2 judges were very generous to GGG in the first fight which resulted in a draw.

    You obviously can't score fights very well if u think Jacobs won that! Poor example..

    Competitive but clear win for GGG.

    Reminder Ward KOd Kovalev in the rematch
    It's Tyson Fury's own fault that the fight ended in a Draw. Tyson was clowning around both times he got knocked down. He almost got KOd in the 12th and could've had the fight in the bag if he had been on his A game in the last and most important round of the fight . He has no one to blame but himself.
    As far as Canelo GGG. Deal with it, GGG lost. There's no way to convince GGG's obsessive fans otherwise so I won't go into it.

    Kovalev-Ward was 115-112 to 114-113 Kovalev. Ward fanboys are delusional.
    GGG-Canelo was 115-113 to 116-112 Golovkin. Canelo fanboys ever never been able to score.
    GGG-Canelo was 117-111 to 115-113 Golovkin. See above.
    Fury-Wilder was 115-111, 114-112 and if you stretch it, maybe 113-113. But Wilder didn't win.

    Of course! If Golovkin has a close fight he won, if Canelo has a close fight he lost. I get it. Its called CDS.

    .... and Garcia beat Porter, Usyk drew with Briedis and Charlo beat Harrison.


    Nobody cares about your opinion just cause your favorite fighters lost.

    That would have worked if I thought it was close. It wasn't. GGG won by at least 3 points v Jacobs..

    As for Canelo & GGG the first wasn't close either. Second? I don't have a problem if u think Canelo nicked it..

    Fury won 10 rounds. Kovalev 7 in that 1st Ward fight + a KD.. Robberies IMO... Even Ward looked surprised! Even FMJ thinks I'm right son...

    ;)

    Oh, thank you for not having a problem.

    I've seen the Jacobs-GGG fight multiple times and have no problem with someone scoring the fight either way. It was very close and Jacobs had an answer for just about everything Golovkin did.

    The first Canelo-GGG fight same thing. I personally scored the first four rounds for Canelo and the last three. I can also see how someone would score rounds 4-9 for GGG. And I can even see someone scoring it for GGG. It was that close.

    The second fight was all Canelo. While close, Canelo was in control of that fight and was the better fighter all night.

    It is really is ' sickening ', especially in the GGG- Clenelo case. Clear robberies and now we have to put up with this red headed pretender being trotted about and hailed as some kind of hero and pound for pound king!
