    When some valuable GBP (not just Canelo) fighter will lose a close fight just by 1 or 2 points, then we can talk about GBP not being GBP. So far, it's a pattern - you go against Golden Boy fighter, you lose 10 times out of 10 even if the fight is competitive

      Everyone who follows boxing consistently knew Golovkin wouldn't win a decision going in, and that's kinda sad in a way. I am sure Golovkin haters loved it but they won't when it happens to their guy. Close fight but GGG was never winning it unless he knocked out Canelo.

        If GGG had won 115-113 on 2 cards, not a robbery either.

        Why can't people just enjoy a phenomenal fight? That was a classic between 2 great fighters, anyone who thinks robbery is a fanboy or doesn't know boxing.
        Completely agree, was a great fight. And for me both boxers are winners. Amazing fight and, OMG, what a chin both have.

        There were some bombs there and none of them seem hurt during the fight.

            7-5 Canelo is a perfectly acceptable score in that fight.

              Close fight. Definitely not a robbery. Thought it was a fair decision, but could’ve gone either way. I wouldn’t want to score that thing.

                Easy to say GGG was winning since he took over the last few rounds, but people forget he started slow again giving Canelo a good lead.

                The 12th round was the determing factor imo. Had Golovkin closed the show better it would’ve been a draw.
