    It's funny because that's exactly what people want to do on this site. They want to argue their (knowingly false) points loudly enough and often enough to try and move the needle and drown out the actual truth of it.

    So yeah, I'll stick to giving my opinion when it's relevant.

    This is how I judge fights

    Yeah that's pretty much what I thought.

      ? GGG had a tough fight vs a tough guy. Otherwise no issues. Not the strongest comp in the world but hard to say he has absolutely ****** ass lol

      And btw that's not how you judge fights lolol

              https://www.businessinsider.com/uk-r...assador-2020-8

              Not to mention that UK commentators generally don't know sh.it about boxing. Look at the fighters they overhype for crying out loud. They hardly know their elbow from their *******.
              No, I'm asking if there is a history of UK boxing commentators being anti-Russian (or anti-Kazakh in this case )?

              Are Mexican boxing commentators anti-Russian too? Because they certainly aren't blindly pro-Canelo. Just look at what Marquez and Barrera have said about him in the past.

                Marquez and Barrera are honest they're just speaking facts and truth. People are sick and tired of Canelo calling himself the face of boxing but nt fighting the best competition. When floyd was the face of boxing he fought p4p top 10 fighters all the time and took big risks. Marquez and Barrera are nt ****** they now this,

                  I'm not going to write a thesis about it man lol.

                  But yes I would say both of those two countries could have a bias for a Mexican or American fighter, and against an Eastern European fighter.

                  I think a lot of people were viewing GGG as the 'boogeyman' at that time, so overrating a performance against him as better than it was is understandable in a way.

                  Against the expectations, Jacobs definitely won. Rd by rd, he lost. Those 2 things are very clear.

                  Some people love a story and get caught up in the over-performing.

                    Correct, and I think most Mexican boxing commentators are honest like that.

                    They are professionals. Not some biased dork on an internet forum trying to force his opinions as facts.

                      The 2nd fight, I scored very similar to the first. GGG just outworked Canelo similarly to the first fight. He was too active.

                      The scorecards in the 2nd fight, were enough to BARELY give Canelo a win. One round different on either of the 7-5 Canelo cards, and you have a draw.

                      We all know Canelo gets great cards in his fights, with the Vegas judging.

                      Basically, someone saying that GGG won both fights is (not only obvious imo) but very reasonable.

                      But if you make that comment that GGG won both cleanly, you have all these crybaby Canelo fans coming at you like you just ran through their neighborhood yelling something about their fat mom or something.
                      Second fight was close, I think Canelo edged it. First fight I thought it was 8-4, 7-5 GGG. Difficult to give Canelo even a draw in that one tbh

                      two of the most high level fights in ages. Really great fights
