Just rewatched the first 6 Rounds . . .

True or False : Floyd's hometown is Vegas. That's where he lives, is it not.

He won a decision in his hometown. That doesn't mean Canelo was robbed or that Floyd didn't deserve to win. But it was certainly a hometown decision.

 

Of course there is an argument for him winning. That's precisely what I'm doing. 1,2,3,4,10,11,12 seem to me to be Canelo rounds. If you disagree, then put forth a convincing argument. Pick apart my round 4 punch summary. Convince us G won that round.

 

You switched sides rather quickly. You got baited back into the Canelo Floyd arguments of the past rather than focusing on the here and now which is Canelo Triple G scoring. What you were saying on page 1 and 2 was on point.

 

Sounds about right to me. I could certainly understand someone giving G the 5th with that hard right hand that G landed with Canelo on the ropes, but for the first half of that round it was all Canelo. But 1-4 seemed to be clear Canelo rounds to me. There wasn't much in the first round but I still preferred the work from Canelo.

 

In all seriousness, I'm really not trolling. Just giving my thoughts on who won the rounds, and seeing who agrees or where we differ.

 

Nothing that G landed in rounds 3 and 4 phased Canelo either. It wasn't until the final minute of the 5th that G landed anything of note which was that hard right hand. Before that, Canelo was really having his way with G completely outboxing him. After that punch in the 5th though, G definitely turned the tide and took momentum of the fight. What I'm trying to highlight is the fact that the momentum didn't turn in G's favor until 1:00 left in the 5th with that right hand. Before that, it really was all Canelo. Just look at Abel Sanchez in the corner after the 4th, he's stressing the need for G to do something with Canelo on the ropes.

 

I thought Canelo won rounds 1-4, G won rounds 5 & 6. How is that laughable? Most agree that Canelo won the first 3 rounds, the debatable one appears to be the 4th.

 

What specifically in round 4 did G do to Canelo to earn him the round? Canelo landed the harder jabs clearly and landed more body shots.

 

It's being talked about because I want to understand why folks thought G won that round. What did he do better than Canelo in that round? It seems to me that Canelo landed the better punches in that round. If you disagree, then show me the punches that you thought won G the round?
