    Canelo v GGG 2 was harder to score,I had Bivol 1 round up after 9 rounds then he clearly lost the last 3 rounds to hand victory to Beterbiev. In any fight not just one of the magnitude of an Undisputed fight you can’t just go through the motions in the last three rounds unless your a mile ahead on points and imo there where far too many of the early rounds in that fight that where nip and tuck and could have been scored either way,had Bivol won just one of the last three rounds he very well could have won the fight .

    are we twins? I had the exact same scorecard for Bivol Beterbiev. Jesus.

    I will rewatch it and score it again at some point.

    Neither were all that hard to score. The only difference is, GGG won the first and second matches walking away, whereas Bivol-Beterbiev was a much closer affair.

    I had GGG winning the rematch 115-113, and I had Beterbiev beating Bivol by the same score. But I think they were both "equally close" in my mind.

    I had Bivol Beterbiev about even after 10 and I thought Bivol just gave away the last 2 rounds. GGG and Canelo I thought was a 115-113 affair for GGG with a draw a remote possibility. I certainly didn't think Canelo won it by any means

    I had GGG beating beating Canelo 8-4 in that second fight ... i think it was even wider than the first.. I don't see that fight as close.. watched it a few times.. GGG did a number on him .. it was another robbery .. Beterbiev Bivol was 6-6 for me.. so i have no qualms with Beterbiev winning, especially considering he finished the stronger of the two
