    This could have been a mirror thread from exactly one year ago.

    You're trying to have your cake and eat it. In the actual fight it was clear that most people there were Canelo fans and you even went with that idea. But when he got booed, then it's a "vocal minority" :rolleyes: But of course Canelo fans would never boo GGG in turn ... right? LOL. Fact is you can't FIND any appreciable amount of people that thought Canelo won, not online, not in the media, and not even at the damn fight.

    Who had more fans in the Arena is different from who has more fans in the world which is different from who has more fans on boxingforum24.

    We've been through the booing theories, but I'm happy to go through it again with you. What seems clear is that there were more Canelo fans in the Arena than Golovkin fans. But surely even as the minority fanbase within the arena, there would still be more than enough vocal Golovkin supporters to make a lot of noise, especailly if they were booing.

    If lets say 80% of the arena were rooting for Canelo, and 20% were rooting for Golovkin, if that 20% was concentrated in a particular area of the arena, multiple sections of seats lets say, surely their booing when the rest of the arena is "listening" would be heard and noticed. Would you not agree with that?

    The argument that you and many other GGG fans have tried to make that it was Canelo's own fans that all of a sudden decided to boo Canelo during his post fight interview is one of the most delusional idiotic things I've ever heard. And frankly it speaks volumes about your view of the entire event including the boxing match and the scoring. It's no wonder you have GGG winning clearly, you're about as right about that as you are about the source of the boos. You've convinced yourself of things that did not occur because it sounds good to you, like who won the fight, like who was booing Canelo in the post fight. Not the small but vocal section of GGG supporters of course not, not the group of fans that both Canelo and Max immediately looked at in a specific section of the arena when the boos started, those couldn't have been the 20% GGG fans of course not lol.

    ZzZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

    All opinion and conjecture^

    My opinion, however, is at least underpinned to some extent by actual events (the booing happened) and polls.

    lol the booing happened, yeah thats a fact, I think we can agree on that. And who's claiming that the Boos were coming from Canelo's own fans?
