I didn't think it was THAT lopsided but I also thought GGG won it. It was close and I can see where the judges might have seen it as a draw.
There was no way in hell it was as lopsided for Canelo as Adelaide Byrd saw it. I wasn't expecting him to Mayweather it as much as he did tonight.
GGG gave him too much respect early on but he took some good shots from Canelo that probably would have stopped other fighters. I look for him to be much more aggressive and go to the body more in the next one. |
I'd give the edge to GGG because of how effective his jab was. But I think a draw is fine considering Canelo's power shots.
I actually might bet on Canelo in the rematch. I think he was starting to figure out GGG in the later rounds.
GGG's ability to eat punches is amazing. |
That's why I'd bet on GGG to win the second fight. The first three rounds he respected Canelo's power and was probably right to do so but by the middle of the fight I thought Canelo's hand speed went way down and he got flat-footed after the first minute of the rounds while GGG kept coming. I think if GGG mixed up his attacks while he had Canelo on the ropes instead of headhunting every round he could have created the openings for his power shots. |
I watched with my homie. He was all Canelo in the beginning. After round four he was quiet as a church mouse. Canelo lost heart when he gave GGG his best and saw it didn't phase him. Gennady straight walked him down. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Most def. The way GGG was walking through shots tonight. GGG should've gone to the body. Who cares if it opens him up to counters over the top. Doesn't look like he's feeling it either way.
I saw Canelo's confidence go up in the later rounds though. He started showing some variety. But his biggest issue was conditioning. The way he laid on the ropes in the middle rounds. Seemed like he needed a rest after moving a ton early in the fight. _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better” |

I just watched it now, for my money I had GGG winning 115-113.
Do not understand how a judge could get 118-110 Alvarez, something funny is going on there.

I agree. I don't have a problem if Byrd thought Canelo won the fight but no one, other than Canelo's camp, thought it was THAT lopsided. Even ODLH scored it closer and that's his fighter.
Canelo landed some great shots on GGG even if he was on his bicycle for most of the fight. I had it 8-4 for GGG, but I wasn't surprised at least one of the judges would score it in Canelo's favor. Mayweather wouldn't have 50 wins if judging always favored the more aggressive and active fighter.
Unfortunately, Byrd will continue getting championship fights because of nepotism but, thankfully, I doubt she'll get to judge the second fight. _________________ "Suck it up. Don't be a baby. Do your job." - Kobe Bryant |

I had it 8-4 GGG, canelo looked tired after the 3rd. I wanted canelo to win but I had almost no hope after the 3rd, even his best shots did nothing to GGG. I feel bad for the sport of boxing, insulted even. No way should it have been a draw and the way canelo was acting in the post-fight (saying that he won) kind of made me lose respect for him. |

Yep. That's when my buddy went silent. GGG felt he could take Canelo's best, he started to walk him down. I think Alvarez felt the same. He didn't really get back to being Canelo until around the 10th round. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

She was selected for the Lomachenko fight and Lomas team went (bleep) and protested immediately. The corrupt NSAC didn't budge. Glad something is now finally being done. She's robbed so many fighters over the years it's absolutely preposterous that it's taken this long. |

I had the score 6-3 GGG going into the 10th.
Felt canelo won 10th, 11th, and 12th.. So naturally i had a tie. The 118-110 was god awful though.
Any of you arguing over one or two rounds should really just call it a day, that's how boxing is. Different people put different value on certain things -- i've never seen canelo get dominated as hard as he did from the 5th-8th round, and i had not seen GGG look so passive and bad in the first 3-4 rounds, i felt extremely comfortable with the 114-114.. but was definitely not against a 115-113 for GGG.
Funny thing is how casual some people are, then one major fight with a controversial score comes around and all of a sudden everyone is a professional judge. |

It's just support of GBP fighters, in particular Canelo/Floyd (e.g. Cash cow fighters linked to GBP). Look at the history. Nissan only comes in here for ulterior motive, due to GBP connection. _________________ Just chill and watch the new Dynasty evolve...

I had GGG winning 7-5, maybe 8-4. Definitely a close fight and I was okay with the draw. Adelade Byrd...yeah, just don't know how she can have such a track record and still get important fights (maybe because her husband is so well respected as a ref?). I saw an article on Nonito Donaire mentioning her giving the same score to Jesse Magdaleno, when Nonito lost that fight. That was another close fight, which Magdaleno was seen as the winner, but Byrd gave him the same wide margin of victory as she did Canelo this past weekend.
Overall, the fight was definitely entertaining and worth watching. That was a PPV worth buying, just for the main event.
Now, on to other fights that were announced!
Wilder vs. King Kong Ortiz in November! I don't know who is going to win this one, but the winner vs. Anthony Joshua will be amazing!
Lomachenko vs. Rigondeaux in December (at 130)! Rigondeaux already gave an interview saying that he doesn't want to hear any b.s. talk about the weight because he called for the fight and wanted it and is perfectly fine with it being at 130! Man, this is gonna be hard to pick.
I seriously feel like I'm dreaming seeing top guys going against top guys. I just hope that the judges and promoters don't continue to ruin the sport. _________________ Just chill and watch the new Dynasty evolve...
