2 of 3 first could have gone this way, and the last 3. The other round the draw judge gave him was 7, even the bloody bent one gave that to GGG

I thought Triple G showed a decent chin here

That punch pretty much killed James Kirkland.

****ing May?!

Cinco De Mayo (spelling) 5th May.

Massive holiday in Mexico.

Always a big fight on that weekend.

Almost like a rematch would make you loads of money Oscar.

And a draw would be excellent for you.

Hmm.

Hmm.

As transparent as ****.

More money for Oscar to spend on bucketloads of cocaine and ladies' stockings and suspenders

Stephen A. Smith DESTROYS Judge Over Canelo vs. GGG - YouTube

Teddy Atlas is right. I don't know why Stephen A Smith is acting like an arse pretending boxing ain't corrupt because it absolutely is.

Tbf, Ive seen quite a few boxing main events where they manage to do the same, they just prefer the standing up position .

edit: Anyway, lets not get into a childish boxing v ufc debate like those seen on you tube, every single day..

Monroe Jr and BJS last night without the Wlad/Hopkins like hugging. Willie Monroe basically just stood there, no workrate at all. He was just there to make an appearance, not a scratch on his face. Looked like he stepped out of the shower after the 10th, only worked in the last two.

FFS we get a fight between two top fighters and when it ends we get a judge that becomes the centre of attention.



118 - 110 is an absolute joke. Reeks of a scorecard decided regardless of what was happening in the ring.

Golovkin took eight rounds for me, and maybe an arguement could be made that he won by a lesser margin, but think it was clear that he won.

A draw is a terrible result, and even if there is a rematch, Golovkin still will have an undeserved blot on his record.


Only "winner" was Canelo. He avoided getting another L on his record, and he took home the bigger fight purse as well.

I said upfront that this was a simple fight for Golovkin and today proved how ordinary Canelo is. He's lost 3, possibly 4 fights now but always gets the gift decision. He counter punches well, but he is fairly static has no movement and punches like a light welterweight. If he had a different promoter his record would look very different. If Mayweather produced a performance like that and got a draw the world would go into riot. The mass sporting world doesn't give a **** about boxing events and it flies under the radar. I'm sick of it.

I know it will never happen, but please get the rematch in Germany. Canelo has a big mouth, lets see him go into the lions den with equally corrupt judges on the other side.

The reasons above are exactly the reason I have something of a vendetta against Alvarez. He's had everything in his favour and gets heralded whilst other fighters do much more for zero recognition. People disgracefully say he's one of the top Mexican fighters of all time and that is so disrespectful to Marquez, Salvador Sanchez, Julio Cesar Chavez etc.
