I had it a draw, it could have gone either way.

Guys, has it ever occurred to you that you may be scoring rounds for GGG based purely on your hatred for Canelo? Yes, I know he was a drug cheat but you have to be objective in scoring fights. IMO, scorecards were immaculate.
I gave rounds 1,2 and 8 to Canelo, and had round 5 a draw. But that's it. There were many close rounds but GGG edged them all. 117-112.
The criteria are effective agression clean punching defense and ring generalship. Canelo was the agressor. Canelo did not go to the ropes while triple G was fprced out of his usual style.(ring generalship) Canelos Punchers were undoubtedly the cleaner more eye catching ones. Canelos defense was better. There's no debate here sorry guys. If the scoring criteria was landing probing and pawing punches but missing power punches, looking old and telling your opponent to stand and fight and then getting on your bike....sure GGG would have it in the bag
So western media and Internet boxing fans hate Canelo? I thought Canelo has a huge fan base. So majority of them don't vote? Not that I dispute your statement, I have it a very close fight.
Yeah, Canelo was the aggressor but... ...he still got outpunched, hit with the more damaging blows and was the one that was visibly hurt in the fight, while being completely unable to defend against or avoid GGG’s jab. GGG outboxed him. And he’s done it for 24 rounds now.
The crucial and deciding round that gifted Canelo the fight was the 12th.....with 2 of the judges giving that to Canelo made sure of his victory rather than a draw on all 3 cards. I'm sure there was a bit of counting back by those 2 judges before they completed their 12th round score
of course GGG won, looks at the punch stats, Canelo won like a couple of round if you look at statistics: https://thumbor.forbes.com/thumbor/...mazique/files/2018/09/2018-09-15_23-25-10.jpg
Obviously, another robbery. It was to be expected that Canelo was going to get the nod if it went the distance.
