    Interesting betfair odds, Vegas odds may have been opposite?
    After the 10 th round in mundine green 2, green was something like 10 to 1.

    BT Sport commentators were talking about it during the fight, also members from here texted the same during the fight in the official thread, someone else just said it was 7/1 on BetFair.

    I don’t wanna argue with Isal or shadow, obviously they are trolls or they are payed by GBP.

    Golovkin was winning that fight, even the Mexican TV had it 8-4 GGG, why is it still a question?

    I don't really care about "someone else". I like to real evidence before I believe it. If you pull up the tape of BT sport commentators saying that, I'll take their word for it.

    You said "most betting sites." Do you know how many betting sites there are?

    Perhaps you're the troll..

    @Tomato(e) Can is right about you.

    Watch the whole fight with English commentary, homeboy. They are not that biased as the HBO ones.
    But another interesting thing is that after the scorecard the BT commentator says: “Roy Jones just looked at me, shaking his head, says “No way”

    Golovkin got robbed, everyone knows that.

    Bro, you're bringing up evidence. The onus is on you to find the timestamp motherfudger.

    What bothers me is that when low-probability events happen people without any understanding for probability and statistics quickly cry foul (i.e. conspiracy theories). I see the same thing happening here.

    No, I'm no gambler and I was probably wrong on noting how the odds work, but it just doesn't make any sense at all that bookies would have made Golovkin the favorite to win the decision after the 12 rounds were complete considering that Canelo was the aggressor and landed the cleaner and harder shots against a fighter who landed mostly jabs.
    Then you consider that Canelo is the cash cow and Vegas would benefit more that he won, it just seems assinine that the bookies would make Golovkin a clear favorite to get the decision the way the fight turned out.
    For crying out loud, even Abel Sanchez thought Canelo earned the fight by winning the 12th round.

    The problem here is that boxing is so open to corruption/error/bias as it's result often comes to down to a judging decision.

    In the 100m final if an upset happens it may have been seen as unlikely but not the same.

    Maybe they knew the fix was in

    Maybe they posted the odds that way because they felt GGG was likely to win

    Vegas cleaned house on that fight

    It makes no sense to you, because you saw the fight differently.
    Those guys want to make money, having those odds is a pretty good indicator who really won. It's a very damning fact!
    I brought this up before, but the usual trolls were quick to dismiss it.
