I re-watched the fight and I also scored it 118-110 - Canelo

[GGG Gloveking]

Can't say I ever met a blind judge but we do tend to get a lot of dust in our eye while judging. I don't why but I think it might be the atmosphere.

It's ok. I understand you got a husband and all, but you can tell the truth. Canelo had them glasses fogged up, and you were wiping them off during the fight so you could watch him between rounds

It was a good close fight. Evenly matched opponents. You can't credit one man with out discrediting the other. With that being said I gave it to Canelo. That was watching it live

Be prepared for the sh!+ storm your gonna get!

The hive mind of Harold Lederman, HBO programming and Rocky movie brainwashing is gonna spaz!

On live watch I had it 7-5 Canelo or a draw or 7-5 to GGG is acceptable at first take!

When I rewatched today with slow mo and without all that crowd noise and bias HBO commentary, Canelo really outboxed GGG!

Who would you rather be, the guy coming forward just throwing punches(who's own trainer told GGG to just throw a punch and hit something) and taking the harder cleaner punches all nite(look at the face afterward if you dispute) or...

the guy who landed the cleaner and more harder shots and made his opponent miss more as well as giving himself different options to attack in different ranges whether off the ropes,in the middle, on the inside etc.?

Look at both guys faces and ask yourself who would you rather be got damn it!!!!
Stop following the herd and make your own thoughts up you regurgitating oversaturated neatherdals!

I'm not even being ironic or anything. Although I think you could have given round 8 to GGG, but that was a close round.

Canelo isn't getting credit for:

1. his body work and
2. dodging/blocking 94% of GGG's punches. [compubox is ass and no real boxing fan should take it seriously]
3. His power. GGG felt his power like it or not.

Also in the first half of the fight GGG was just following Canelo around the ring throwing out a lazy jab and an occasional power punch every now and then. It wasn't until about round 7 where he started to cut off the ring effectively.

People are giving GGG way too much credit for literally just coming forward and missing almost everything he threw. Canelo landed the cleaner more effective punches throughout the night - the best two punches of the night were his right and uppercut on GGG. GGG couldn't land much on Canelo besides the occasional jab.


Anyway, this is how I scored it:

That's how fake smoke and mirrors Floyd beat PAC. Tip tap jab. With PAC landing punches of consequence

I wish I knew how to pull up my post from yesterday. I knew it would happen

[boliodogs]

The whole boxing world is outraged by Byrd's insane, ridiculous, impossible, WRONG score card of 118-110 Canelo. She must be your heroine. You and her are the only two clueless boxing dummies in the world who scored the fight for Canelo by 8 points.

[Fanofreason]

I thought Canelo won clearly. Landed the harder clean punches all night.

[////]

had it 121-83 canelo, consider the result a KO

[Motorcity Cobra]

I feel that 'Canelo not getting credit for bodywork' is becoming a mantra to guys who want Canelo to be seen as the winner.
Kind of 'say it enough, and it will be true'.

The really high percentage of fans, boxing media, and even boxers themselves scored the fight for Golovkin. Those guys all failed to score body shots, or credit Canelo for his work? Really?

Or maybe they scored GGG for coming forward even though a lot of his shots were missing. Seems like a lot of people dropped the "effective" off of effective aggression and scored based on aggression.

In your opinion who had the better defense, landed the crisper/clean punches, and better ring generalship?
