this is what Abel Sanchez said... so, feel free to go play in traffic
“Obviously, we wanted [Golovkin] to do a lot of different things,” Sanchez said during the post-fight press conference..... but when they’re in the ring, they’re gonna do the things that they see available to them. Canelo fought the fight that he needed to fight today to win. The judges saw him win. That’s what’s important. You have to give credit to Canelo, instead of trying to say what we didn’t do. He fought a great fight.”
and.....
"we have to congratulate Canelo,” Sanchez said. “Two guys fought a great fight. They gave us [their] all in the ring. Canelo is a champion today. He deserves it. He fought a great fight."
also.....
"I said in many interviews he had a chance to erase the issues that he had in May. I believe that he erased the issues that he had in May. What a great champion he is. He’s the champion today. But that’s the kind of fight that I expected, that’s the kind of fight that the fans expected and when I talked to Gennady all along this training camp, I explained to him that I thought Canelo was gonna stand and trade with him.
“So in the fight, I was trying to have Gennady make it a fight. Instead of allowing Canelo to rest, I wanted him to fight more."
