    It's great that Oscar De La Hoya has opened up this great new possibility for all the poor middleweight contenders who have to face GGG. All they have to do is sign a contract with Golden Boy, and then spend the entire fight running away and dodging as many punches as possible. Then when the scorecards are read, you get a draw, and thousands of racist fans will come out and say you even deserved the win, and that you exposed GGG's weaknesses!

    I'm an excellent runner, having placed in the top 3 in several marathons. I'm a super middleweight, but I plan to lose weight and turn pro by next cinqo de mayo! GGG will never be able to catch me due to my olympic-level running speed.

    GGG is a coward and has been ducking me all his life! I want you, you stupid Kazakh bum! Stop avoiding me!!!!!

    Too bad that very few middleweight fighters have the chin, power, and skill to survive even running from GGG.

    If you want to become a great, then you need to either KO a great or beat them senseless for at least 9 rounds for a career defining win.

    Like when Calaghe beat Eubank, Lacy, Jones Jnr, Hopkins.

    Or when Lennox Lewis beat Tyson and Holyfield.

    Or when Barry McGuigan beat Pedroza and Taylor

    etc

    No matter what you say GGG did not do this.

    I am a GGG fan and I can say the fight was close and competitive. I didn't score it, but often Canelo landed the biggest shot while GGG was doing not always effective aggression. Overall it was a great fight and boxing fans had a blast watching the fight.

    I don't understand this idea that an opponent of GGG has to stay still and not move. Canelo was not duty bound to stay pinned against the ropes. It was up to GGG to trap canelo and not allow him a way out but he failed to do that. GGG whether you like it or not was wary about what canelo coukd throw back.

    As an unbiased observer I'd say Alvarez did pretty well to be honest, some of those counters were very effective and he did attack more than many give him credit for. GGG won by a couple of rounds for me but I respected Canelo for the effort. I think the bogus card has done Canelo a diservice, many seem to not give the man any credit for having a close fight with Golovkin. he was well in the fight and GGG even looked vulnerable a couple of times, how many fighters have managed that? to not credit both these guys is silly

    You don't win a fight by chasing someone, get countered and land pitter patter jabs (many of which get blocked or missed)

    Joe did that to a shot Eubank & shot JR.
    LL did that to shot Tyson and old Holyfield.

    "Declining" GGG beat a young hungry prime p4p with just his jab.
