Fights can be hard to score and sometimes, it can honestly go one way or the other. There's no clear cut winner although you may prefer one over the other. The same thing happens on here every single time. The posts will cry robbery! And then within hours or even minutes, others are saying it was close and could go either way. Such repetition. Haha. It's ridiculous...

And on this fight that was not the case -
It's ironic. Most fans in the past year usually coincide ''risk'' with GGG themes. Most people attribute that to his legacy of fights. However, it should always be consistent. GGG had always promoted himself as ''Mexican style.'' Even if it was genuinely non-pandering, you're not going to win against an elite level Mexican fighter like Canelo by just fighting behind the jab, missing an all time high in attempts, and not providing power punches for the judges to see... I thought Dave Moretti went easy on GGG in the first fight. The guy's so old he didn't take accountability from gossip because he comes from a different generation, meaning I doubt he could wound up on ''Mexican Style'' propaganda like industry and fans did.
However, I don't think that was the same for Byrd or Trella. Even if Moretti had acknowledged let's say 2 swing rounds to GGG, meaning, ''well, I liked GGG's jabs more than Canelo's power punches in these 2 rounds...'' then it goes to show that some judges will favor a different criteria, which is normal, and therefore had Moretti liked Canelo's power punches in those two rounds, then he would've done a Majority Draw like Trella, 114-114.
It's a man's sport. You can't be running your mouth saying you're going to do something on fight night and then not show up. That's a serious problem for gamblers.... GGG didn't take risks in the ring with Canelo but only more in the 2nd fight, and we saw that it was Canelo's style of fight that he preferred. Remember that Hagler still believes he beat SRL, even though SRL was on a constant bike.Comment

Stop pretending this was a close fight like GGG-Canelo 2. It wasn't
Aside from the first round with the kd (which should have been illegal because rabbit punching), there were no rounds where GGG won clearly, but there were plenty of rounds where Derev was beating GGG from pillar to post.
8-4 or 9-3 to Derev would have been the right score
GGG got a GIFTComment

This all comes from the Golovkin haters. If GGG would have made easy work of D, the haters would say he beat an inexperienced hype job. I had Golovkin winning this one by two rounds. Too many casuals are either trapped in their own hate or easily duped by biased commentators. Sergio Mora is a Canelo ****-ryder amd was openly rooting for D-Chenko. Commentators are supposed to remain beaut rap. I notice any time a Latino fighter is fighting he also shows his bias. He and Mannix (and that other fat, bald slob) are no better or worse than Lampley, Kellerman, Paulie etc.Comment

People throw a fit when they REALLY want to see a guy lose. Ward, Spence, Canelo, etc. In time, people tend to get over it and accept it. It was a great fight. I thought Derevy probably won but I can't get with the crying and outrage.Comment

I'm a GGG fan, I was rooting for him. But I am no fan of any boxer to the level of ignorance or bias. I won't lie to myself and anyone else. Triple G lost that fight by at least 3 rounds. Rounds 5-12 were looking pretty bleak and whatever rounds he won were still razor thin.Comment

I had the fight 6-6 each, the KD really did sway it for GGG on my card.Comment
