Canelo's Confident? Why?
When did Canelo beat GGG? I must have missed it. There was a day when a champion had to lose somewhat convincingly to lose his title. Especially a dominant, undefeated champion. All Canelo had to do was survive and stay upright as long as Dela Hoya controlled the judges. Scoring should be displayed after each round to keep boxing honest. They're just afraid the crowd in attendance would tear the roof off the place. The money behind the powers-that-be who endeavor to create these media darlings is actually detracting from the legacy their chosen fighters end up creating, and in the minds of dedicated boxing fans and also the annals of history these "created, hyped" stars will always finish below the self-made legends like GGG, Hagler, and Duran. No hype or purchased publicity needed. No purchased judges either.
