Are people calling it a robbery because of the last 3 rounds?

    Yeah Canelo gassed and looked hurt in those rounds but are you going to throw out what he did from 1-9? It's kind of odd because in the first fight Canelo dominated GGG most of 10-12 besides 11, but you guys remembered everything GGG did. Give a fair shake to both fighters.

    Also this PED bs needs to stop. Canelo looked the same.

    Exactly. GGG won the first, Canelo won the second. Granted I missed rounds 3 and 6, Canelo just seemed to have won more rounds. And no, I'm not going to re-watch this one and look for rounds. I'm done with this saga. 1-1 in my books.

    Maybe you'll understand what I mean now when I say this forum is so biased and agenda driven. And no one can accuse me of having an agenda for Canelo when I had GGG clearly winning the 1st.

    i had ggg winning the first one too, but canelo outboxed him, took the fight to him, took his best shots no problem, and kept up with him when ggg won a rd.

    He didn't just outbox him he walked him the **** down. Lol GGG looked like a ***** going back until Canelo gassed.

    If the judges gave Canelo the rounds 10 or 11, then YES its a robbery. I want to see score cards.

    Canelo owes this victory to Sanchez cause he dared him to go toe-to-toe. Still scratching my head as to what happened to GGG tonight, no "Mexican Style".

    Come on man. I was in the 50/50 fight, slightly give GGG the edge due to his clear win last time and his durability.

    But how can you see that fight as not a Golovkin win? Which 6 or more rounds, did you have Canelo in? I'd love to know

    I think it's similar to the Kova-Ward scenario wherein GGG's won rounds looked far more convincing, because I'd say a good 8/12 rounds of the fight were separated by a hair. But I aint got beef, I had rounds 1 and 3 10-10, so i was happy with either man getting the nod.

    Honestly, I was shocked GGG "ran" the whole fight. Note how I only use "running", when a fanbase or a team condemns movement but then their fighter refuses to stand in the pocket.

    It was a close fight, but ggg edged it for me.

    Rule 101, knock the house fighter out.

    Yeah, the little bit of hypocrisy will be swept under the carpet. The GGGirls are known for that.
