    I agree with you about jabs, jabs get scored and have always got scored to effectively determine the outcome of a round or a fight. If they are not going to take them into consideration when scoring a bout, then maybe guys need to stop jabbing.

    If there is a 3RD FIGHT GGG needs to get rid of Sanchez then demand they have the fight in Kiev, Ukraine or
    some other Euro Capital. Whoa!
    That would take THE WIND out of the cocky Canelo

    Those were power jabs that GGG was putting on Canelo and they were very effective.

    Some fans say a resounding No to a third match. I'm all for it. But we shall see what happens next ...

    Manny v JMM 3: 116-112 Pacquiao according to Lederman.

    You tell me how he come to that conclusion?

    I agree that a change in venue is desirable. However, I believe Abel is the ideal man in GGG's corner.

    I included a list of boxing writers and boxing people and who they thought won... overwhelmingly in Golovkin's favor. Oh well, it is what it is.

    Not really sure what that proves. When GGG's own trainer has no problem with the decision then the discussion really is over.

    The fight could of went either way, it was close.

    I scored the first fight for GGG but this was a clear Canelo win. GGG fanboys in some serious denial right now.

    It's not just Lederman though is it, only 2 of those 51 ringside observers had Canelo winning

    Everyone says something different about how they saw the fight. I dislike canelo, wanted ggg to win, and still thought canelo won by a couple rounds. He had ggg hurt to the body and put him on his back foot. GGG was eating combos to the face because he was protecting his ribs multiple times. GGG had a consistent jab on canelos face all night. I guess it depends on how much credit you give that amazing jab
