Comments Thread For: Andre Ward: Canelo Won Clearly, He Broke Golovkin

[hugh grant]

Canelo fought exactly the way Crykin wanted, and he still couldn't deal with him

too much Mexican for the fake Mexican

even Sanchez admitted that Golovkin either would not, or could not, shift up a gear and take it to Canelo

they got exactly what they asked for, and they couldn't deal with it

Ggg manipulated Nell to fighting Mexican so he could jab Nell a face off and it worked. Just like Garcia saying Pakistanis can't fight to Khan to manipulate Khan into fighting a certain way. Just like Floyd saying he would ko pac, so Pac expected Floyd to fight a certain way, and Floyd didnt.
All it means is Nell dance s to Ggg tune. Ggg tells Nell what to do and Nell does it.

So it was Golovkins plan to embarrass himself? Some of the **** these guys make up.

last time I checked, these were the ONLY valid scoring criteria....



which of the ONLY valid scoring criteria was Golovkin superior ?

people saying that Canelo beat Golovkin at his own game, or saying that Canelo lumped up Golovkin's face..... are not saying that is why he won the fight..... but, they are 100% correct..... and yep, you better believe that the judges also noticed those things

which of the ONLY valid scoring criteria was Golovkin superior ?

ummmmm, YES THEY ARE, maybe not you, but the general media/boxers/trainers that had Canelo winning, keep mentioning that Canelo "broke" Golovkin when in fact GGG was forced to fight another fight because Canelo stood his ground.


since you keep bringing up the official scoring criteria, how about we use this scoring criteria and apply it to the first fight? im assuming you think he won the first fight as well?

ring generalship? a guy running cannot win that argument
effective aggression? ggg was the effective aggressor going forward whereas canelo would occasionaly throw when his back was on the ropes to get out of danger. defense? both were moving and slipping pretty well, maybe a slight edge to canelo. hard and cleaning punches? they were about even in power punches and golovkin doubled the jabs landed, people forget golovkin uses the jab in so many ways, the power jab he was throwing was pushing canelos head much more than a regular jab. nod to GGG.

the point is the second fight was much close but i still had 7-5 golovkin. IMO, golovkin won both fights. the first fight was a blatant robbery and the second fight the money fighter got a house decision.

Ggg wanted Nel o easier to hit and he was this time. But Nell fans think Nell won on the basis Nell fought more Mexican than ggg?
Don't think so. Ggg threw more and landed more. Nel o fans have to overanalyse to make a case for Nell winning

On the basis he landed more powerful punches. Him doing it fighting exactly how Golovkin dared him to and beating Golovkin at his own game, just makes it more sweet.

Ggg hits harder than Nell so Ggg punches were harder.
Ggg beat Nell at Nel os game by outboxing nelo. He's outboard Nell twice.

[ralex]

GGG never went after Canelo like he does other fighters. You have to wonder why. It’s because the counters were painful


Had GGG fought Canelo like Kirkland did he would have gotten knocked out too.

[Jab jab boom]

this is not the amateurs kid, volume is not valid scoring criteria

Canelo got a clean sweep on the 4 official scoring criteria.....

which is why boxing insiders are saying that Canelo won, and you muppets are running around doing what you always do..... cry because your guy lost

Jabkin told Canelo to stand and fight like a Mexican..... but when Canelo obliged, Jabkin started getting his face rearranged by a REAL Mexican so he got on his bike









trust a Golovkin fan to have no clue how to score a fight

you casuals are embarrassing yourselves

So i guess the 34 people on press row which included boxers as well who scored it for ggg don't know how to score but the 2 who scored for canelo do? Leave it to a Mexican to only score in a biased way for the Mexican fighter. Have you ever even boxed? Surely you haven't.

It's OK hughie, i've known for a long time you live in cuckoo land. Most people saw Golovkin took the most punishment, even posters that scored for Golovkin agree that Golovkin took more punishment.

Oh dear.

Just woke up and even though I went with @Canelo I still can't believe how he dominated GGG what a amazing performance by Cinnamon @HBOboxing

Canelo earned it. By a round or 2.... ggg just seemed off tonight. Too slow. But....... at least we got a winner!

Khan

What a fight #CaneloGGG2 I gave the fight to Canelo. It was toe to toe action, Very exciting. Canelo surprised us all with the come forward pressure game plan. Well done to both Canelo and GGG. Boxing needed this @HBOboxing @GoldenBoyBoxing

In the @BTSportBoxing studio there was a perfect storm of scores: I had a draw, @richiewoodhall Golovkin by 2 & @mrdavidhaye Canelo by 2.

I’d given Canelo 7 rds https://t.co/6D0QwVABuo

Smith

6-5-1 to Canelo. Great fight. Two top class fighters. Watched that many slow mo replays and rewound just to say “wow” watching Canelo feint the left hook to the body and turn it to something else. I feel for Golovkin. He’s had 24 great rounds & only 1 of the 6 judges gave him it

I though the decision rendered was right felt like Canelo won both fights and this time it was more convincing

Mora

8-4 or 9-3 for the Mexican. Body shots were the difference #CaneloGGG2

— Sergio Mora (@TheLatinSnake_) September 16, 2018

Plant

115-113 canelo. Controlled the center of the ring, dictated the pace most of the fight and was the ring general 80% of the time if not more. He was winning a majority of the exchanges. That wins fight. GGG beat him at the jab but jabs don’t out score right hands and left hooks.

Fowler

Respect to @canelo I scored it 115-113 in his favour, he put on a great show and pushed @gggboxing back out of his comfort zone, but I don’t think Canelo will ever win the love of the fans back now though after failing that drug test #caneloggg2 pic.twitter.com/mDjmM0E7fC

Coldwell

Listen. If GGG has won I’d still say it was a close fight. A close fight can go either way.
I scored it ONE round to Canelo. With one round even. If that goes GGG it’s a draw.
If ONE of the close rounds I go GGG instead i then have GGG the winner.

Quigley

So I watched the fight and I had it 115-117 in favor of canelo , what a great fight boxing fans have to be happy with that , also I can see by the commentary why people might be swayed to think GGG won , #CaneloGGG2

Great fight and I think the right man won but very close.
