I've been following the sport for over 25 years. I've been to many world championship fights. I've seen horrendous decisions before and this was one of them. I've stepped away from the sport in the last 3 years and watched a lot less fights because of how bad the corruption had become again.
You have to clearly beat the Champion to take a title, that did not happen here.
Golovkin clearly won that fight as he did the first one.
its amazing looking at that....that...over the 6 scorecards over both fights ..GGG was a winner on 1 card.
yet...not one of those media analysts listed had last nights fight to canelo....and same with 1st fight.
