    GGG is ROIDED AS HELL.

    NO ONE TAKES THOSE PUNCHES CANELO LANDED and just carries on like nothing.
    Ggg gets tested yr round. If anyone is on roids it's the Mexican.

      I picked Canelo to win but I thought GGG won it by a couple of rounds. A draw isn't terrible but with a scorecard like Adelaide Byrd, it shows that GGG never had a chance. Canelo started well and the HBO crew were trying their best to highlight everything he did, but I didn't like all of the standing against the ropes and the breathing heavy. GGG really pressured him although he did miss a lot of punches. Had GGG not been nervous at the beginning, he probably would have won (on at least 2 judges scorecards).

        Bad score card but I'm not mad at the decision. Coulda went either way. GGG the consistancy and Canelo's explosive flashyness. Canelo fght his fight well and GGG was constant. Matter of pref. THIS WAS A REALLy good fight

            I had Jacobs losing by 1 point, I had GGG beating Canelo 8-4

            Canelo isn't a middleweight, it's a credit to his chin that he was able to even go the distance.

            Robbery.

                Canelo is a good fighter, but it's very hard to get behind somebody when there's a clear agenda at work.

                  that's your comeback, Canelo "stumbled". What does mean even?

                  way to change the goal posts. Hey, Canelo made GGG wince!

                    Close fight. I don't think a draw is too crazy. I had GGG ahead by small margin.

                    I'd like to see a rematch.
