How did you watch the fight and how did you score it?

[Motorcity Cobra]

Ppv cable with 15 friends. I had 8-4 Ggg. Friend who had cash on nelo had 9-3 Ggg. Everyone else were Hispanic casuals and no one thought it was canelo won. Everybody was laughing and calling boxing a joke.

Were they calling it a joke because of that one ridiculous scorecard or because they didn't think the fight was close at all?

A lot about the card. Some thought it was close. None had canelo winning. The guy that had 2k on ggg was livid.

I'm sorry... I can't see how anyone can give Canelo 7 rounds. SERIOUSLY.

A draw is not out of the question BUT that only happens if you give every close/swing round to Canelo.

1 is always a toss up round where nothing happens, both fighters studying each other, you can score it for both sides, depends on your favoritism

2 and 3 are clear Canelo rounds

4,5,6,7,8,9 are clear Golovkin rounds with Canelo being absolutely passive, working only in short spurts

10 round can be scored either way, Canelo landed great combos in the beginning, made Golovkin's face look like a punching bag, but other than that Golovkin was more busy.

11 can be scored either way, but in my opinion Canelo edged it

12 you can make an argument for both Canelo and Golovkin winning that round

After rewatching

I found rounds 5 and 6 to be really close

watched it at home. Think it was a french overdub and i dont speak french. I had it at 4-3 for canelo at the end of the 7th and stopped keeping track then. A lot of rounds were close and hard to score. ggg more active with canelo moving and visibly tired. But canelo landing the cleaner, harder punches. compubox numbers were way off. I think a draw is fair.

they value clean effective punching over ineffective aggression

2k on a draw and he would have made 6 figures. 64-1 odds

Closed at 16-1 buy yeah who knew

Watched it at a theater through Fathom Events. Fathom shows the fight with the main broadcast, therefore we had the HBO commentary. Harold's scorecard was atrocious IMO, I hardly ever agree with his stuff. He only cares about being aggressive, he doesn't seem to care about effective punches landed. I think the majority of people in the theater were influenced by HBO's biased coverage of the fight. RJJ and Max tried to keep it even, but Lampley and Harold were extremely biased.

I scored the fight a draw but would have have had an issue seeing it go either way.

Yeah that's how I saw it at first. 4-9 are clear ggg rounds. Nelo had maybe 11? And everything else was a swing round. Trying to get a copy of the replay. I honestly don't care about the results that much I had a blast watching it.

Op I watched it without sound at a watch party with 10 people. My brother was pulling for nelo and thought ggg got hosed.
