Gennady Golovkin vs Saul Alvarez. Who Wins. Public Poll
Collapse

Canelo looked insanely sharp in the early rounds but I think he admired his work so much that he didn't see the urgency in applying quality work to the body. He had the energy and sharpness to do this but didn't, then Golovkin came out strong in the 4th round and the rest is history. The same first 3 rounds I gave Canelo oddly enough, were the same 3 rounds that cost him the fight in my opinion.Comment

It was an easy fight to score. I had GGG winning 8 rounds. Canelo landed some nice shots here and there, but he was never in control and never fought the way he normally fight. GGG should've cut the ring off a bit better and get his shots off more consistently when he had Canelo on the ropes, but overall he controlled the fight and walked Canelo down throughout the whole fight.
Here's my round-by-round scoreboard
R1 Canelo

R4 GGG
R5 GGG
R6 GGG
R7 GGG
R8 even round, but I gave it to Canelo.
R9 GGG
R10 GGG
R11 Canelo
R12 GGG
8-4 GGG.Comment

Exactly my question:The Boxing media, promoters, trainers, and Boxers themselves should come together to petition these State Athletic Commissions to vet-out these sub-standard Judges (and Refs)...
The media needs to bring attention to this, and not just in a jaded, sarcastic manner. They should do something to affect real change.
Teddy Atlas and Stephen A Smith, heated discussion...

My prediction of a draw was correct.
I thought GGG would be a bit better, but the Las Vegas judges would even it out - and they did!
But that being said, I was shocked like everybody else by Adelaide Byrd's wide 118-110 scorecard for Canelo.Comment
