    Why should he? He would not if he'd won the fight.

    Timekeeper probably lost his job after the fight. There's a good chance he was texting or something.

    but thats the point maybe if the timer was correct, maybe he could of made an adjustment and turned the fight around.

    Time keeper had a big money bet on a 1st round KO

    I noticed Golovkin landed a really nice left hook that started out as a jab

    The fight was only going one way. If you think longer rounds would benefit GGG in some way I'd like to know how?

    Geale would have never been cut, his only chance was to take it to the cards, cut in first round means mentaly geale just lost the fight.
