        What does that have to do with Kirkland who supposedly had disadvantage because he wasnt with Wolfe yet was able to tear NELO on the ropes...?

        HAD Alvarez fought in Cowboys Stadium, the same that roared for NELO, how would that crowd reacted to the way GGG did poor on the ropes, something GGG is highly known for!?
        I seriously hope you're trolling, which I think you are. GGG landed some massive uppercuts, and did very good work, while not getting countered back like how Canelo did to Kirkland.

          He didn't do better against the ropes. He got knock out cold and that's not doing good. He swarmed Canelo and threw a ton of punches that mostly missed or were blocked. He used up all his energy and got tired and sloppy and then got knocked out. He didn't win a single round. GGG missed a lot but he landed a lot when he had Canelo against the ropes. He wore Canelo out with steady pressure and made him retreat. He landed more punches than Canelo in ten rounds of the twelve rounds according to the punch counters. He won lots of rounds while Kirkland failed to win a single round. That's not Kirkland doing better. That's Kirkland doing much worse.

            GGG did just fine with Canelo on the ropes. Canelo was baiting him to lunge in with the right where he would lean back on the ropes out of reach and then counter with a flurry. Trying all night but GGG just kept popping with the jab.

                  i just watched the fight.
                  other than round 1, kirkland was shadow boxing while nelo was on ropes
                  way less damage than jabs.
                  them pitty patter punches are worthless unless you throw a big one inbetween 3 or 4 of the pitty patter

                    I don't care about the casinos but I bet the draw so was happy

                    I was torn between aging GGG and priming Canelo so ended up leaving the $25 I had on a draw as my only bet for the event.

                    I mentioned my draw bet before the fight and reasons for thinking it was far more probable than the odds said.

                    I made roughly $500 profit from my $25 bet... not bad, can't complain.

                      Yep, he baited him in like the Chavez fight. GGG didn't do what Canelo wanted him to do. A decision him and Sanchez had clearly decided on before the fight.
