Comments Thread For: Canelo Dominant in Trilogy, Secures Decision Win Over Golovkin

[MulaKO]

I honestly didn't care, at all, about who would 'win' so I didn't score it. I'll have to rewatch it soon with sound off and give my 2 cents. I had it 1-1 through 2 rounds though and not sure how anyone can say Canelo dominated those.

I saw a nice high level chess match through the first 7 or so rounds, with Canelo landing the harder shots in most rounds but GGG still probably landing more shots in most rounds and landing fairly cleanly when he did land.

Last 4 rounds Canelo gassed and GGG found his rhythm, as expected. I have no idea h what people were watching the first 8 rounds or so to be honest.

What was Canelo's most dominant round(s) for you? I'll give them a rewatch now.

Brother you are contradicting yourself
Dont care who wins but you didn’t score the fight
All good but then you go on to say that Canelo landed the harder shots for the first 7 rounds give or take
Only then to state that GGG landed more shots and fairly cleaner shots
Last 4 rounds GGG obviously won those rounds in your opinion
So when or when did you not score the fight ?
Seems like your mind is already made up
Unfortunately for you , i alreadtuknow your a GGG fan and a Canelo hater
With all that said , I hate both of them , they both have skeletons in the ring so to say
If they retire tomorrow, I won’t lose any sleep whatsoever because they are two alike
By that I mean full of chit

Great fight between two guys destined for the hall of fame predictable result but it was nice to see GGG rally and pinch some late rounds. Very enjoyable fight thank you Canelo and Golovkin a brilliant trilogy I'll never forget!

Huh? Lol. Not caring who wins, would line up well with not scoring the fight.

I didn't say GGG obviously won the last 4 rounds. Where did I say that?

I said the last 4 trended towards GGG, not that he won all 4. But compared to the rest of the fight, they trended his way.

If Canelo was outlanding GGG 30-5 in a few or so of those middle rounds, I would agree that it was a dominant performance for the most part. But for me it was pretty clearly a cagey boxing match from 2 guys who know each other well. Until Canelo gassed and then it was less about tactics for him and more about running out the clock.

No, I wasn't sold on GGG's level coming into the fight, especially at 168. But it was a good match, I enjoyed watching it. I could see the tactical battle and both guys looked game. I would have paid about $50 for it but wasn't going to pay $85.

Well you are a lot different than me because i wasn't in the slightest or least bit entertained by that mockery of a fight. GGG was too old and it showed. Both his timing and hand to eye coordination on his punches are now retired and a thing of the past. I don't know what Canelo called himself doing out there.

It seemed to me that he was too afraid of opening up and engaging the older man offensively. GGG was very tight and clearly wanted out of the fight but instead of Canelo putting him away he simply chose to carry Golovkin across the finish line. I want to get my money's worth when purchasing a pay-per view event.

I don't want to see tactical matches. I would prefer to see pier six brawls and knock-down and drag em out fights. Canelo was supposed to either stop or knock GGG out tonight or at the very least beat him up but he did neither.

GGG boxed behind the jab as always and looked for opportunities for the right hand, but against Canelo those don't come easily. And if you commit to it you better be right since he is probably the best counter puncher in the game.

I think Canelo landed 13 punches in 1 round, that was his top output. It was a tactical battle. I didn't see anyone on the verge of being put away lol.

I don't think either guy looked bad. Both were smart and boxed, that's what the game is all about.

This is boxing man, if you want to see a brawl watch bare knuckle FC or something.

Lacked any real intensity and too much respect between the fighters. Banks instructions offered nothing. No KO so they'll both fight again

So you still haven’t answered my question ?
Who won the fight according to your bullchit , you know the trending and all

[A.B Counterhooks]

People need to undertand golovkin is just too strong to be KOed ,these guy hasn't even been dropped ffs ,probably never will in whats left of his HOF career

I’m a Stones fan and seen them more than I needed to lol
Enough is enough when Keef only performs when the lights are on him
Same chit here and to be truthful , did not need to see this third instalment either

I already told you I didn't score it, and I don't care who won, and didn't care who won. If someone got a KO, then that's cool. Otherwise at this point the official winner or even who won in my eyes is irrelevant.

The first 2 fights were so dramatic as far as scoring goes, I just don't care anymore to be honest.

I'm sure I'll sit down and score it soon though and I can get you my score then.
