    Canelo’s dubious wins.

    How did you score these fights?
    Some of these fights I don’t think were even controversial tbh.

    Trout.
    Official result: Canelo UD.
    My score: 115-112 Canelo.
    I thought it was competitive but Canelo won relatively clearly.

    Lara.
    Official result: Canelo SD.
    My score: 117-111 Canelo. This may seem a little wide but Lara was far too negative and passive IMO. I thought he boxed well early but then Canelo completely swept the middle to latter rounds.

    Cotto.
    Official result: Canelo UD.
    My score: 116-112 Canelo.
    Competitive but Canelo clearly won, dunno why people complain about this one tbh.

    GGG I.
    Official result: Split Draw.
    My score: Live in the arena: 116-112 GGG Rewatching it on TV: 116-112 GGG.
    This was a robbery IMO. GGG clearly won this fight and the 118-110 card was disgusting.

    GGG II.
    Official result: Canelo MD.
    My score: Live in the arena: 115-113 GGG. Rewatching it on TV: 115-113 GGG.
    I disagree with the verdict but I wouldn’t call this a robbery like the first. Canelo had far more success in the rematch, pushing GGG backwards and arguably landing the more effective shots. However I felt GGG controlled a lot of the action with his jab which won him a lot of rounds on my card. This was a very close and subjective matchup. I feel GGG won but 114-114 or 115-113 Canelo are acceptable score cards IMO, but it always felt like the fix was in regardless tbh.

    Jacobs.
    Official result: Canelo UD.
    My score: 116-112 Canelo.
    Canelo clearly won this fight, Jacobs essentially gave away the first 5 rounds before finally imposing himself in the fight. It was competitive but no argument with the decision from me.

    you can't be giving this guy rounds for just landing 5 punches. that's literally what people are doing for him in the first 3 rounds.

      I though he won all those fights except the first with ggg which I saw as a draw or 7-5 to Ggg.

        He was clearly landing the more effective punches in the early round last night. Jacobs got completely outboxed early on.

              I would say you’re in a minority with those Lara and Golovkin 1 scores

              The Lara score is atrocious in particular

                  Dubious is the wrong word. He beat Trout, Cotto, and Lara cleanly, nothing dubious about those wins. And last night he clearly beat Jacobs, nothing even remotely controversial about that.

                  So it's the GGG fights that are really his only questionable fights. I have him 1-1 in them, some GGG backers have him 0-2. So what? 2close fights that could ahve gone either way and he's 1-0-1 in them, what the heck is dubious about that?

                  LOL at people trying to make last night sound like there was some real doubt on the decision, it was a clean 8-4 win.

                    I thought he beat Jacobs last night.


                    Golovkin 1 was a Golovkin win.

                    2nd fight I thought was a draw.
