    GGG would've won. Officially.

    Canelo was slowing down much more than GGG was and would've lost more of the last 3 rounds

    Do you think Golovkin would be a good 15 round fighter in general?

    In the first fight Canelo finished stronger. In the second fight Canelo again closed strong. It was just round 10 where he made a tactical mistake based on the instructions of his corner.

    GGG was huffing and puffing from round 4.

    Canelo would've toughed out rounds 13, 14 and 15 and then been awarded a close UD by the Nevada judges.

    Especially when one considers Canelo fought Golovkin on Mexican independence day weekend and Cinco de Mayo weekend. On the weekends of those two holidays, in Las Vegas, absolutely nobody at 160 or 168 is beating Canelo -- the GBP golden goose -- on the Nevada scorecards.

    Canelo would've backed ggg up for 15 rounds just like he did for 12

    It would have been a different fight as both guys would've changed their training to be ready and conditioned for 15 rounds instead of 12. So those saying one guy looked more tired than the other and making a judgement off of that is not right.

    Canelo hasn’t got the gas tank for 15, he fought in spots vs GGG the first fight, slowed down in the second fight and gassed out in the second half of the Jacobs fight.
