Re: BOXING MIDDLEWEIGHT TITLE FIGHT - Canelo vs. GGG Discussion
In my perspective, if it would not be a draw I'll definitely go with Canelo as the winner. It's a tough match and as for the scoring, I'll leave triple G with less one point than canelo considering how he answered every blows.
I'm not a fan of Canelo and it's my first time to watch his fight so this is an unbias decision from me. I guess this fight was the nearest defeat for triple G

Exactly, Canelo looks like winning than triple G, it's just rather unfair to settle for a draw but what can you say it's boxing and if you don't go with your own judge by knocking down your opponent it's likely to be decided against you.
Like Pacman's said this the chance for boxing to reclaim the trust of the people but then again they screwed up. Kodus for both fighters but a draw? I had it GGG won that fight. Boxing really became a business, In which promoters doesn't care about the essence of Boxing but instead they eye for the money. This is another example why a lot of Boxing fan before hates the sports now. A rematch would likely to happen and for sure it will happen early next year.
These replies show that some people saw Canelo as a winner and other saw Golovkin as the winner, so I guess the best decision was a draw, but most boxing experts point to a win of GGG. The 118-110 card in favor of Canelo by one of the judges was absolutely fucked tho.

That one judge who scored the fight 118-110 should be banished. But as per NSAC, will not suspend her and still can judge but won't work anytime soon. Her scoring is very controversial. Is she watching a different fight? Its not even reflective of the other two judges who score it very very very close. For me NSAC needs to suspend her and possible ban her from judging if she have made another controversial scoring in the future..

Apparently she has fucked up scoring on MMA too. What the hell does that middle aged woman know about boxing? They should get world champions as judges, that actually have fought and know how things work, not some old people with probably no boxing experience.
Anyway, the fight was nice. There's too much hate on the fight due the decision. Even with the Byrd disaster, the fight was tight. People saying GGG clearly won are obvious GGG fanboys. Canelo did a decent job.
