GGG did miss a lot and allowed Canelo time to rest.

Canelo was firing in bursts and many not landing.
Master George Foreman was initiating the entire fight and Ali was laying on the ropes for the whole eight rounds So based on that analysis you had George Foreman ahead right before the knockout?
Big difference was that Canelo was throwing very little in those exchanges. He was coming up short a lot on those counters and like Master said, GGG was doing all the work. Canelo fights in spurts and it is his undoing, he loses a lot of rounds because he cannot sustain the action. It's a bit like with Calzaghe/Hopkins, like it or not Calzaghe was outworking his opponent. Same here. 50 more punches landed for GGG, busier and doing his thing on the ropes while Canelo takes a breather.
