      Could have, would have, should have, does it matter?? it happened GGG away gave the initial eight rounds and had competitive last four rounds.

      Being Competitive doesn't get you a draw when you didn't do enough 2/3 of the fight. Whether it is due to his gameplan, new trainer or age it doesn't matter when GGG was the one who made those choices. It happened now for the love of God don't try to entertain that idea of making a Quadrilogy.

        Canelo won, around 116-112. The thing is though, Golovkin gave so many of those rounds away by letting Canelo do very little and edge rounds. When Golovkin got going in the last 4 rounds, he was the better man, even well, well, well past his best as he is now. I think it's time he walks away and spends his money now. Absolute monster at his best. Cash in

                It reminded me of Froch-Ward, Thurman-Garcia, and nearly every Lara fight. Where one guy gets a lead and is the better man early, but gives away rounds late and makes it a close fight on the cards.

                To get GGG to 6 rounds, you'd have to give him 4 of the last 5. Not impossible, but a little strong probably. It was more like 3-2 GGG. You'd also have to give him one of the first two and round 6, not impossible either. But to do all of that is very favorable.

                4 to 5 rounds is probably right. 6 is a bit much but possible. 7 is just trying way too hard.

                    i watched it in the morning on youtube from someone in the crowd, canelo swept the first half and golovkin the 2nd, could of easily been a draw if you give Golovkin the benefit of the doubt in all the close rounds, i think the scorecards were surprisingly fair though 7-5 canelo is fine, but as you see the usual suspects on here desperately trying to claim it wasnt close at all, just like how they claimed that the first fight wasnt a robbery and was actually a canelo win! and the 2nd fight wasnt close either, golovkin got totally battered and dominated remember?
