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:
C G
