GGG v Canelo - A great fight Soiled in the USA

[Randall Cunning]

No doubt.

Then again, it's also understandable why wilder won't take a flat fee with no upside, only to have all those things working against him too. All these things add to reasons why big fights are hard to make.

it's all so blatant too and makes me less interested in certain fights and why i've resorted to streaming fights and stop funding the nonsense.

Yeah man, I aint watching no Canelo circus shows anymore. **** a 3rd fight. They just gunna keep on going til Golovkin cant make it through 12 rounds anymore?

Such a ****** thread. Neither fighter is American. All of the most respected American writers had the fight a draw. Six rounds to six. The fight was very close. I personally had GGG winning 8-4, but there were so many close rounds that when all the top writers have it 6-6, how can you complain when two judges have it 7-5 Canelo? In close fights, people will disagree. The judges did a good job.

So what if they aren't American? Did I say Canelo was American?

Ok, name me the 10 respected American writers who had the fight a draw. I'll be waiting.

i didn't say he has. i'm saying i believe that'll be the case in the event of a close fight in the UK. maybe i'll be wrong. My point wasn't to target AJ, it was merely pointing out that we watch fights, knowing who's almost certainly going to get the decision in a close fight. i just used him an example of a huge draw that i anticipate will get the decision in any close fight when it happens.

my point was that we shouldn't even be having these thoughts and expectations before the fight happens, but that's the way the sport has made us think, which is a shame.

Unless it happens to AJ lets stay away from hypotheticals.

We've had some huge fights in the UK and rest of europe in recent times and I can't remember a single incident like GGG.Canelo or Ward/Kovalev.

So lets tsop this "oh its the whole of boxing", it is not. Theb iggest fights in the US are the worst officiated on the planet. It needs to be fixed.

Yet another big US fight, this time living up to its billing, this time both men delivered, this time it rocked back and forth...all of it spoiled by 3 American judges, at the most corrupt sporting city on the planet, in a nation where the sport is being slowly but surely digested by corporations.

A crying shame because GGG deserved his great night and Canelo deserved to go out a worthy loser and get ready for a third fight.

As I said before, the sport should no longer take place in the US. I can not think of a single clean, big PPV fight in America for the last couple years.

Abysmal.
