    Canelo wasn't even countering effectively for most of the fight.

    Agree.

    Canelo ran too much for my taste but the comparison to Lara is ridiculous. Canelo would alternate from boxing to successfully trading punches with ggg throughout the fight. Lara simply ran from the 4th round on.

    Canelo literally chased Lara for 8 rounds scored the fight 7-5 Canelo. GGG chased Canelo at times but was constantly countered. Scored that 7-5 for GGG.

    When one fighter is literally jogging forward and the other is back pedaling beyond belief, something is wrong. I know Canelo likes to let the action come to him, but cmon. That was sad. Gennady respected him too much. GGG never caught him FLUSH. Canelo caught him with his entire arsenal, and what happened? GGG ate it all and backed him up.

    That was clearly not "Mexican style" by Nelo, that looked like the Tour de France.

    He felt that power and didn't want any of it.

    It's so obvious. He ran every round.

    From round 1 to round 12.

    EVERY ROUND.

    Serious?

    Canelo's movement and avoidance of getting KTFO on the ropes was actually incredible and noteworthy.
