        Why? Both fights were basically the same. Canelo starts decent enough, with speed and youth on his side. That helps to neutralize GGG's workrate advantage. The early rounds (4-6 or so) are close with neither guy really separating.

        Then Canelo slows down, and GGG maintains his pace and picks up some clear rounds. The fight ends with Canelo getting a bit of a 2nd wind for some close rounds again.

        Those fights weren't hard to score and both only had 1 winner - both times for GGG. Acting like Canelo got any more than 4 rounds in those fights, what a low bar that is for a fighter!!

          Your knowledge of the game is dishonest.

          IDGAF who you are, when you 43 in the sport of boxing at the 20 year mark of your career, you shot. The opposition is shet so he lasted longer but 43 you shot.

            GGG "decline" was mainly due to his vast increase in the quality of his opposition, not his age.

              The Canelo now is on a different level than 2018

                      I think he is improving every time out really, so I agree. Don't think it's tremendously different now vs 2018 but rather incremental. Definitely improving though, I agree
