    The more I think about it, the more it reminds me of Klitschko vs. Fury, it looks like both of them were pulling their punches.

    If he ain't a true middleweight then what is he, a true super middleweight.

    Rather than where was his power what about didnt Canelo do well to make it hard for Golovkin to land flush. Everybody seems to have to put people in such seperate catagories. How about this fight was elite vs elite, both found it hard to do what they wanted to do because the other was doing all they could to make it as hard as possible. Both did well in what they did. Canelo was the great power counters, Golovkins was the high output and sapping Canelos energy by putting in an incredible amount of work.

    Canelo has great defense and moves a lot... he also has a great chin

    People are taking the smallest things and making a big deal out of it

    GGG obviously has his power.. He didn't land many clean backhands because Canelo has a very slick defence and got away from most of the shots

    Those that did land, Canelo took on the chin. Nothing wrong with that, That doesn't suddenly mean you have no power cos you're not knocking people out with every shot ......

    I saw the fight. Canelo was landing cleaner punches and landing nice body punches when GGG was landing no body punches and not landing clean head punches. I think this affected the judging.
