One that is shared by the overwhelming majority of people who watched that fight from what I've gathered.
By the time they fight again, if they do, Canelo might very well be better. Time is on his side. I don't think he was better in fight one or fight two, though the draw in fight two was more justifiable IMO. I didn't have it that way but again much more reasonable than the first fight IMO.
I don't know what Golovkin's mindset is anymore. To me it feels like he has lost that fire. Maybe I mistaken but if that is the case the ring is no place one should be if they don't have that mindset.

GGG was chasing those fights and needed to meet them at the weight they felt comfortable at. Ward was the B-side and he was the one pushing for the GGG fight. GGG had better options but still GGG was generous enough to offer a catchweight. Ward turned it down.
Ward could have stayed at 168 to push the issue for the fight much in the same way GGG stayed at 160 in the hopes that Canelo would move up. GGG got his fights. Ward didn't.

Originally posted by Sable&Whitefish View PostCanelo has decent power and really quick reflexes, instead of backing up waiting for the counterpunch as per usual he decided to back up GGG as best he could, which was a great move because as many have observed, GGG can't fight off the back foot very well. He didn't lose his punch resistance, he took all of Canelo's punches very well. He was just thrown off by Canelo coming forward and initiating and couldn't walk him down like he does to everyone else. It was a good strategy from Canelo, a good adjustment that GGG should have been better prepared for.
I do think GGG won the fight 116 - 113 with the jab and the power punches landed, he won the majority of the rounds. But Canelo deserves credit for his effort, and a draw would not have been an outrageous result for that second fight.
See how dumb & contradicting that sounds
