Comments Thread For: Canelo Alvarez, Gennady Golovkin Battle To a Split Draw

[Jay Volcano]

Golovkin clearly won the fight. I'm not that interested to see a rematch.

[Joeboy]

The rematch won't happen. Canelo will say he's not a natural middleweight and will move back down to super-welterweight where he will fight Charlo, Cotto, etc..... Golovkin will probably fight Saunders and smash him to bits!! Then he will probably be tempted to move up to either super-middleweight or light-heavyweight for a "pound 4 pound" Battle with the likes of Ward, Badou Jack, etc.
Just my opinion. ��

The 'Canelo judge' effect strikes again. Every damn fight one judge is in his pocket.

He even had a judge bought in the Floyd fight for crying out loud.

What a disgrace.

Its no surprise that gggroupies were promising to cry robbery if their claims were proven untrue of ggg koing canelo as theyve said repeatedly. Funny how I was saying then that whatever the outcome we shouldn't cry if our fav lost,but gggtards got excuses in early like they will now claim if ggg gets kod in rematch,that canelo kod old ggg,& that the ref cheated 4 him. This is literally ward vs kov 2.0.

bla-bla-bla. Golovkin was robbed. 2 judges scored 1 for GGG, 1 for draw.Period and we don't even count that mozer***er with his ****** 118-112 at all.
P.S. I am OK with draw though. Golovkin was lucky that Kanelo lost his stamina and confidence.

The worst thing about boxing is not the judges, it's the fans.

They don't even understand the scoring. You can win a fight 120-108, but every round could be razor thin. Could be an absolute war where one of the guys is 1% better each round, or a pure boxing match where one guy is 1% better each round. The score does not mean the fight is a blowout. You can have a fight scored 114-144, with each guy winning 6 rounds, but one guy could have won 6 close rounds and they other guy could have won 6 rounds dominantly. You can win a fight by taking 7 close rounds and then get your ass kicked for the last 5 rounds of the fight.

Ultimately the margin of the scores do not matter. A win is a win. I don't agree with 118 for Alvarez in this fight, but people need to let it go. One judge had it a draw and one had it a win for GGG. Two of the judges did not have GGG winning.

Alvarez doesn't deserve a rematch after his poor showing.

[John Barron]

idk why people keep head hunting canelo and never go to his body... he is built like a tree trunk, you can't ****ing miss and he already tends to gas early on his own. abel sanchez is a worthless idiot, dude was basically GGG's cheerleader during the fight.

Alvarez should stick to fighting smaller weight classes. GGG won the fight. GGG is a small, OLD middleweight.
The big middle weights will really give him a hard time. He gets thrown off by NOT being the harder puncher. Hes use to fighters getting scared when he lands. Aint no one scared of him at middleweight.

You call her a judge? If one judge gives win and another gives draw you can't alter this score by a discredited freak. If she failed judging then don't take her pos as credited judge score, or is it legit you say?

Absolutely spot on.Theres so many fanbois who don't even score the fight while watching it & therefore cant even include the rds they thought their fighter won. I already posted my scorecard earlier of 7-5 canelo won 1-3,8,10-12. So many have no idea the criteria involved. Ring generalship-canelo, Defense-canelo by far, accuracy-canelo who landed more power shots with 72 less thrown, effective agression-50-50 because ggg was missing wildly all night,& yet on other hand found success upstairs but canelo landed almost all the body shots,& most the shots on the chin by far. Ggg just heavily outlanded in jabs & glancing power shots to the head.

Ggg was completely wasteful & canelo couldve beaten ggg easily if he didn't gas in the 5th through 8th. I think he did similar to jacobs,he used several rds to rest knowing hed lose a few rds no matter what anyways from exhaustion,but then he could unload on ggg in later rds when gggs punches are weaker. I literally predicted that ggg would lose 3 of 4 championship rds just like vs jacobs& I was completely right,canelo followed an excellent gameplan to nullify gggs power completely. I told everyone constantly that canelo has good footwork perfectly suited 4 his style better than gggs going backwards. while many claimed 4 ages that gggs footwork was far superior,
