I love a good jab as my name suggests but you can't win a fight by landing 5 jabs to your opponents 1 good clean hook. That happened a few times last night, GGG wasn't doing enough. But there was also a round or two where Canelo was taking a rest and GGG took it by jabbing.

Round six I’ll give the nod to Canelo and maybe the 12th.
Otherwise GGG won the remaining rounds.
Maywe we watched a completely different fight then..
Cause the fight I watched, Canelo pretty much dominated through the first half of the fight , GGG only started to gain momentum after first 6 rounds and yet the later rounds were close..

If used properly, the jab is easily the most effective weapon in boxing.
Like George Foreman says; "Fighting is easy when you have a jab."
Unfortunately, many fighters who have great jabs will abandon it to lead with a left hook. Both Floyd Mayweather and Roy Jones come to mind.
I can't help but laugh at how low people's boxing IQ is on this forum.
If you have a great jab but are being walked down and hit with every power shot, then no you're not winning the fight
I mean how stoopid and biased are you?

If ggg had better defense he would have won the fight. What I'm saying is canelo did waaaay more than ggg. He controlled the fight. It was his fight.

It's like a cat fighting a dog. The cat landed more hooks but the dogs single jab was a far more damaging power shot than all of the cats power punches combined.
I use this metaphor because Canelo is a female sex organ. Cheater. Point fixer. Scum.

the reason the majority of people scored it for ggg is probably because ggg's jab was often landing 100 percent unabated while canelos power punches were often partially blocked by ggg's high glove defense.

Again, canelo did what he wanted and controlled the fight. Canelo made it his fight.
