    All three judges had it 113-115.

    It was not that close of fight.

    Canelo got the scoring favoritism he usually seems to get in Vegas. But even with that, he didn’t do enough to even make the argument he won.

      I don’t like Haney, I’m not a fan of Haney, I picked him to lose to Loma and scored the fight for Loma.

        Super surprising ruling by the judges since Bivol was a random guy from Russia

          I had it 8-4 Bivol. I actually think 7-5 Bivol is plausible but there’s 7 clear rounds for Bivol.
          I honestly didnt know what round to give Canelo. Maybe I stopped paying attention because it felt like Canelo decided early he wasnt going to risk winning and getting ktfo.

            they only paid the judges to give canelo a 4 round headstart thinking that was enough, in the rematch they would pay the judges more

              Watch Teddy Atlas's breakdown of how they tried to fix this scoring

              Worth watching for anyone who hasn't seen. And this applies to any other fight too. You'll start to notice

                I think the uproar would have been too loud to contain. Given the thorough ass whipping that Bivol handed Alvarez, BS close score cards was the best the judges could do.

                  They tried. If Bivol gets cut in the 11th and they stop the fight, he loses

                    There’s no way to even give Canelo 3 rounds, let alone 5.

                    but a constant along Canelo fans is that jabs don’t count, so who knows

                      Well, no not 8 rounds. It’s 7 rounds.

                      You know you only need 7 clear rounds to secure the fight in definitive fashion, right? Not 8.

                      You’ve somehow equated that simple question to me ****riding Haney because you have the IQ of a spoon.
