Comments Thread For: HBO's Lampley: Overwhelming Majority Saw Golovkin Win, Twice

[hugh grant]

Even though GGG beat nelo twice now I've have come to realise nelo is pretty good. I know people say he was given gift decisions against Lara and cotto and all.
But that aside he did well Vs GGG. So I know he's handy now if I had doubts about nelo beforehand.
I know nelo can take a punch and is resilient and stubborn. If he can learn how to defend jabs or outjab his opponent he can go far and maybe beat ggg oneday

This is why I think HBO boxing needs a reboot sans Lampley.

Can't happen soon enough. I'd rather the UK guys.

I get what you're saying, but for me a fight that could so easily go one way or the other, shouldn't be called a clear victory. to me, clear means decisive, and/or not being able to see it going the other way.

imo, this would not constitute a robbery. but if people who are looking at it from the context of how both fights were scored, who the money fighter is and the champion losing his titles like that, want to throw the term robbery around...I get it.

Well cot damn mfer. We saying the same thing. Neither of us think its a robbery.

Who can take this hating clown seriously, this is the fangirl that cried when Marquez koed pacman.

Coke La Hoya is pissing all over this sport, virtually killing it.

[Chuckguy]

He is a Hall of famer of course, but he is not an ATG

Yeah his rezy is too weak.
Lampley lost his mind. Two close fights and usually the bigger name with the bigger financial draw wins. I can’t hate either outcome 1 or 2.

that's a narrative that will build the third fight. i think deep down lampley knows golovkin looked old and took a beating in a great fight in which he lost.

[Shadoww702]

golovkin won the first fight clearly

golovkin won the second fight closely

this is the **** that happens in boxing

1 your drunk Rounds 1-3 and 11-12 Canelo. 10 50/50.

2 your blind

That is what happens when you dont know SHT ABOUT BOXING.

[Shadoww702]

No He didn't! But he did seem to nullify sustained attacks and avoid the power punch BUT so did GGG (yes I know GGG was Outlanded in the power punch department). look it was a close fight (both were) and the drama, actually the b*tching n pissin is amongst the fanboys and casuals...but that's what makes boxing boxing right? lol

You say Golovkin didn't do **** yet he Outlanded Canelo in both fights yes they were Jabs but hmmmm didn't those jabs leave the nastiest gash I've ever seen on Canelo and also stop him from connecting multiple combos throughout both fights?

Canelo did better than what most boxing fanatics thought he would and GGG showed he is human ! Know this tho...they both A Class fighters.... but one fighter has a longer career ahead of him due to age. Give credit and respect to both why because they proved it in the ring! now let's see Charlo BJS and all other top contenders give it a go!

Did you not see the nasty gash Canelo gave ggg??? Did you NOT see how both looked after the fight??? Did you NOT hear GGG own trainer say he has no problem with the Canelo win. Did you NOT see GGG run from the ring CRYING with his tail between his legs???

Im gonna take a wild guess and say you were in Cancun Mexico for those 3 days???

Nope, I wrote here before the fight I was in Tijuana watching it. Then had work in Mexicali on Monday.

Posted about it here during and after the fight.

I wish I was in Cancun.

I’d like to believe some people can watch a fight and remove their bias. I realize that isn’t easy.

I had Golovkin winning by two rounds. During the fight I scored it here as I saw it. Don’t see anyway Golovkin won by more than two rounds. 115-113 was right there for me too. Could have understood a draw, I just didn’t see Canelo winning. Thought both fought excellent, just thought it was a bad decision.
