      Appreciated. Not sure why everyone is on the "canelo is improving so much" bandwagon. He just had a showing and lost 9-3, 8-4 the closest against ggg. And if they fight 10 times he would lose ten times, and i donteven think ggg is a top 10 mw all time. Crazy how these weird trends get repeated by ppl who seem to take a shortcut to thinking.

        You done fell out of the ****** tree and hit every branch down if you really scored 9 rounds for GGG.

        There fighting again in May. Ill take that that BET!!! Put your $$$ where your mouth is.... Go FULL Rtard and take GGG by TKO. Ill even give you better odds.

          I had GGG winning in the 7 to 5 or even 8 to 4 range in the first fight. That said, you may be disappointed in the rematch bud if you think Canelo isn't improving. Now that he has felt some of GGG's power, he knows that he can take a shot without getting completely flattened, he will be more aggressive in the rematch and not let GGG dictate the pace. I got Canelo by comprehensive decision in the 8 to 4 and 9 to 3 range. Peace.

            Canelo has improved by I think how much he's improved may be exaggerated. Earlier in his career he looked great vs baldomir & cintron but didn't look overly impressive vs trout and then lost to mayweather. After that he destroys angulo and everyone says he learned from the experience with Floyd but then looks horrible vs lara. He then smashes Kirkland but didn't look too good vs an old and small cotto. He then runs through 3 mediocre opponents in khan, Smith and Chavez jr but struggles vs ggg. So he's always beat b and c level competition easily but struggled with top level guys. Time will tell because he now has a ggg rematch and top competition like charlo, saunders and jacobs await if he can get by ggg.

                not sure what fight you saw but it was a competitive fight (despite the typical Canelo scoring) where Canelo may have won more of a 7-5 kind of fight. He didn’t really hurt cotto and only landed 1 punch at a time. I've seen cotto beaten worse and at that time, a fighter with the age & weight advantage canelo had over cotto, he should've taken him out.

                  Most guys usually do. We can say the same thing about GGG. Charlo also struggled with Trout. In fact he was Boo'd on that decision because a lot of ppl felt Trout beat him.

                  ALL fighters struggle once they quit fighting bums. GGG looked like the boogeyman until Jacobs and Canelo pulled a MYTHBUSTERS on him.

                    Exactly! And after the fight Cottos whole head was one big lump. I actually felt sorry for Cotto. He had big nots all over his bald head.
