    I saw that. IMO the fans were upset at the 118-110 scorecard. Maybe they were also upset that Canelo didn't fight in a way they wanted.

    Frankly, that is their ******ity. If you watch Canelo, you knew he was going to box and move and not stand and trade.

      Funny, he said he was going to show ggg how Mexicans fight, JMM is a boxer, counterpuncher, but he didn't need to get on his bike, all the canelo crew before the fight said canelo would box his ears off, he boxed well for generally 1 minute of most rounds then looked terrible trying to escape from GGGs pressure, I'm off to bed, any posts I will respond to in the morning, see ya chaps

        Some booed because they were GGG fans some booed because they were furious that 1 score had the fight so wide. If you judging who won by that then Shawn Porter beat Thurman because the crowd booed that decision. I was there in that crowd and before the fight it was a pro Thurman crowd. But a minority were loud after the fight starting the boos.

          That can't be the reason for Canelo getting booed because the whole arena was applauding at the end of the fight. The cheers only turned to boos when the scores were read and the verdict announced.

            Listen, Canelo and Fishnets dela Nosecandy did what they had to do to sell tickets to casual fans. Instead of listening to them, look at how Canelo actually fights. It was clear he was always going to box and move.

              Fans don't turn on the guy they came to support because of bad scoring. That just doesn't happen. Canelo's fans booed Byrde's score, booed the verdict, then they booed Canelo himself because he said he thought he won clearly, instead of aknowledging that was lucky to get a draw.

                Ok. They must be ******ed if they think Canelo was going to say,"I think GGG won the fight" or "i was lucky".

                    They didn't like it when he said he thought he won, that was obvious.

                      It was a GGG crowd when the fight was over, that's for sure.
