This fight was between two great guys on the night, both guys showed why they are top p4p guys and if u cant see that then u got problems, draw was the right result here
I agree with Roy Jones Jr. 1000%
UnAbel set his guy up to fail with his damn MOUTH! So Canelo gave you the style UnAbel begged for and you couldn't stop him hell you couldn't even knock him down and barely hurt him HELL you had the Smaller guy backing you up
Regardless of the decisions, Lara and Canelo going "standing their ground in the middle" for 12 rounds against Hurd and GGG is some pretty impressive stuff to me this year.
Funny how some people call GGG a fraud. Even if you felt Canelo won (he didn't in my opinion), it'd only be by about a round...so it would make him not much less than a fraud, surely?
some people need to grow up. it was a brilliant gruelling fight between two top notch fighters and that's how legends were made throughout the history of the sport, win or lose. why not just give credit where it's due to both fighters.
going by the logic of people on this forum, some greats must have been frauds.
That's what makes people on forums insufferable at times, even fans of the fighters i'm a fan of.
Well said.
So why was GGG going backwards most of the time????? Where was his "MEXICAN STYLE"????
Yah and he beat him toe to toe. Not once did ggg's back hit the ropes. He jabbed circled back into the center of the ring and outboxed canelo easily.

Are we really going to pretend Golovkin didn't beat the hell out of him?
Am I going crazy? Canelo was getting lit like a Christmas tree whether he was coming forward or going back.
Thank you. This site would make you believe that you didn't see what you saw. These ****ers saw Canelo doing enough to take GGG's belts. Call it a draw again, fuk it. Canelo did not win 7 rounds. I have no personal gain in it, they're both foreigners to me. I just hate to see a man's accomplishments (belts) taken from him because Goldenboy would sink and it's that ****ers holiday. It is what it is...
My favorite part of the while broadcast was when
Kellerman: OMG canelo just took some Monster shots and is still coming forward. What a granite chin. How is that possible?
Roy Jones: that's that mexican style. The FOR REAL mexican style.
he was was backing up and jabbing alot i was suprised! but this was a good fight by both men, ggg just looked old and very slow. props to both fighters
They all know Canelo controlled the fight counter punched the hell out of GGG and made him miss, the only thing GGG was doing better was jabs, Canelo even did more body work then GGG.
Punch stats even tell you Canelo landed more power punches, and more body shots, but GGG landed more jabs and where i am from, someone doesn't win a fight landing less power punches and body shots, but only landing more jabs.
Also like everyone had seen, GGG didn't want to fight Mexican style and kept moving backwards and shackling his head after getting rocked, while Canelo was moving forward and backing GGG up.
They see what they want to see because it's a close fight maybe 2 round sway either way to most because fans want to give GGG the benefit of doubt, so they take advantage of this and claim GGG got robbed when the fight wasn't close and I had GGG only winning 4 rounds 8-rounds to 4 rounds Canelo.
But maybe some rounds could've went both ways and the better jabbing in certain rounds gave GGG more rounds, like the judges 115 to 113 Canelo and then certain fans saw it a draw.
But this fight was great but GGG lost and Canelo actually fought him not backing up and traded while GGG was gassing and looking worried as hell.
Canelo won rather easily, but could've shut him out with more body punches and jabs, the jabs made the fight seen closer then everyone thought.
Rematch Canelo works on his jabbing counters and leads more while throwing more body shots easier win next time.

I’m shocked that Nelo put up such a performance.
GGG... sorry bud, you just got owned.
Gollovkin was hurt so badly to the body.....he couldnt stand and trade. He was seriously folding over to those body shots if it was a bigger man like hopkins or hagler landing those body shots he would have gotten kod. Golovkin is never beating canelo. The kid is too young and finallly becoming an actual middleweight. Thats the best that he could do but in a 3rd match canelo could give u waaaay more. Hes young and learned gggs style. Its gonna get ugly from here for ggg. Don't even talk to me about even big young more talented guys like charlo. Hell no.
It's pretty funny watching Canelo backers use the same argument to back their win that they fiercely refuted in the first fight..
Honestly it's pretty amazing how different the two fights were.
I felt like GGG was the better man in both, but Canelo did fight well in this one.
I'm not mad at 7-5 for Canelo in this one, I just think GGG deserves better than this.
Triple g has made a career out of mocking any fighter who refuses to give him every advantage... then he suddenly forgets how to walk forward and speak English

Relax you spastic. How many threads do you need.
Dude has no life dumbass was on here trying to sell mofos insurance lol like anyone with brain cells would buy anything from a crackhead!
I gained a lot of respect for Canelo tonight.
He was the smaller man and he walked down the big bad wolf of 160. He showed tremendous balls.
Anybody who isn't giving him his props wants Golovkin's dick in their ass.
Have you found the anti life equation yet?
Lol...now the guy who backed the other guy up won? Not the guy who landed the better power shots and hurt the other guy a couple times. This was all optics. Since ggg didn't do what everyone thought he would do and looked old, he lost...even though he did the better work and outboxed Canelo behind his jab at times. Just cuz ggg looks sloppy with his defense and didn't push Canelo back the whole fight doesn't mean he wasn't doing good work. It was a good close fight, but ggg won imo.
he fought the wrong fight period....mexican style doe
So when Canelo is the pressure fighter you love it and when Golovkin does it he is a one dimensional bum ? He changed up his style because of the way Canelo came out the fight and y'all criticize him for adjusting. He still landed more punches even when he wasnt the pressure fighter
