    GGG I think has just won by a couple of rounds.

    These are the two best boxers in the world though, of that I have no doubt.

    The two best middleweights!

    Surprised at the scorecard.

    Will be interesting to rewatch the fight without the commentary, they were very biased in favour of GGG

    Hate when they use compubox numbers to justify why a fighter should've won.

    30 punches difference over 12 rounds is less than 3 punches difference a round. If Canelo has thrown the better shots he wins the rounds not the more active fighter.

    As they just said, a Golden boy promotion, with a golden boy fighter, with tons of mexican fans there on Mexican independence day...................no surprise at all even if it's a joke decision.

    Thats why boxing gets a bad name. Canelo will never lose on points on a golden boy show. Remember that ridiculous draw scorecard he got against mayweather... corrupt as f##k

    My youngest would agree. He’s just texted and he had Canelo 8-4 - he said watch it again without commentary!

    My Danny is probably the best judge I know so I respect what he says.

    Controversial opinion... Billy Joe beats Canelo convincingly

    No one will beat Canello in the USA imo needs to be taken away from there

    Said de la Hoya would ensure his golden ticket came through

    Rd 12 to Canello tells you everything you need to know as why thevfightbwas a fix

    I've watched it back once with no commentary and actually scored it at 114-114 trying to be as objective as possible having already known the official result.

    Some of the rounds are so close that me going just one round for GGG instead of Canelo and it agrees with you. You going one round the other way and you make it a draw. Me going one for Canelo instead of GGG and Canelo wins 115-113.

    It was one of those fights where all three results would not have been unreasonable. It wasn't robbery like the first fight.

    The first fight was a robbery, this was a close fight.
    I had GGG winning but he was never getting the decision against Canelo.
    Alvarez makes far too much PPV money for that
    Shit truth unfortunately.

    Unless another fighter starts making more $ in the States, especially the west coast, Canelo won't lose on points

    Had Golovkin by 2, and thought when two judges had it 115-113 'and still' was to follow. Yes. the was a close fight, but there was only one winner in there.

    Boxing is rotten and the fact that none of us are surprised it's a damning shame.

    Mexican fighter
    Mexican promoter
    Mexican Independence Day
    Never ever going to be a different result

    I watched it this morning without sound (had no choice, there was no sound on the video I found) Golovkin won that in my eyes. Not surprised it went to Alvarez though, home fighter, huge ticket and PPV seller.

    Same happens over here, not to the same degree but it still happens. Hearns fighters always get a few rounds head start

    All that aside (and I agree), the result wasn't a travesty - even GGG has accepted it.

    As I'm sure you know, the biggest fight days in Vegas are Cinco de Mayo and Mexican Independence Day - and they always try to put on a Mexican show. Even Floyd/Manny had Leo Santa Cruz on the undercard!
