GGG v Canelo - Scorecards

[SeGoodland]

Anyone that gave GGG the 8th round is ******ed, Canelo beat the shit out of Golovkin for most of the round.

It's my opinion, you asked for it. Get over it and move on.

Did you re-watch it?

Canelo really beat the dog shit out of GGG that round.

Yes, just for you, I just re-watched round 8. In my opinion, there was 3 good shots, the early uppercut from Canelo, the overhand right from GGG and the strong jab by Canelo at the end of the round.

There is NO WAY that Canelo 'beat the dog *****' out of GGG. I watched the round on HBO and the commentary said 'Another round that could be scored either way depending on what you are looking for' and it seems you were only looking at Canelo.

GGG has Canelo in the corner, his movement after combinations looked good, more so that Canelo. Canelo has success with one or two punches at a time but both of them are just throwing with little effect. The majority are bouncing off, glancing or missing completely.

Based on what I saw, GGG won the round.

Nobody is going to convince someone else who won what round. It was too close for anyone to get anywhere, The last fight proved that. We just got more of the same. I just want everyone put down who trolled someone else saying one fighter would smash the other. Own up to it u you lashed out claiming someone would get beat down. Whats everyone who told someone else that their guy would KO the other saying? How after the first fight did this forum get filled with people claiming utter domination by someone in the next fight? Cause they all got it wrong. No point arguing a close fight, no one gets anywhere. But everyone who filled up threads with feuds saying one guy would crush the other better all be humbled, You all know who you are. Too many promoters on this site, not enough honest people.

Don't give a shit what HBO said.

Canelo was landing flush shots and body shots for the first 2 mins of the round. The last minute he let off the gas and GGG landed a few jabs and nothing really meaningful.

HBO says that GGG could have won the round because he lands a jab and right hand(Right hand was blocked) at the end but they are way off imo. One of the clearest rounds of the fight that had a lot of close rounds.

The combinations to the head and body Canelo lands between 2:30 and 2:15(Head and body around 10 shots) is the most dominant/clean shots landed in the fight for either guy. He also landed other big body shot and head shot+ jabs but yes he slowed down for the last minute of the round.

GGG didn't do anything close to that in the last minute to steal the round. And a lot of the shots GGG did land in the round are pushing/arm punches, he had no power..He was huffing and puffing most of the round.



I really don't see how you can score that round for GGG, there are plenty other debatable rounds you could pick but this isn't one of them.

Alright, post them up, lets see who knows what. Mine off memory is:

1. GGG
2. Canelo
3. Canelo
4. GGG
5. Even
6. Canelo
7. GGG
8. Canelo
9. GGG
10. GGG
11. GGG
12. GGG

7-4-1, with GGG absolutely mauling Canelo in those championship rounds. Yes some rounds can be said to be close but 10-12 were all GGG, no one with any integrity could have scored them any other way.

GGG dug out greatness in the championship rounds, as champions are supposed.

Where can I re watch it?

Guardian had it 116-112 Golovkin.

Jones sounded like he was bought and sold on HBO. The guy couldnt get over how great GGG was in the last 4 rounds and after the fight claims he ran lol

If you claim you have to rewatch a fight you were ringside at, you know your master got a few words for you.

Him and Kellerman are company shills, probably worse than Farhood on Show.

Going to stick up somewhat for Roy. When he first started he was a lot better but hanging out with Kellerman and Lampley must have got to him because now he's regressed.

Lampley actually called the fight last time and that is what he often does. Yes he can be a company shill as well, more so in the last 15 years than before but he is nowhere near as bad as Kellerman or Jones.

The last time Jones was even a barely decent commentator was 10+ years ago.
