I actually think a rematch benefits Canelo because of age.
What a joke
i did predict that Golovkin would deserve the win and get robbed by corrupt judging
crowd reaction says it all. Canelo shamed the Mexican nation by running

GGG completes his Vegas experience buy getting robbed and fucked.
There was daylight between them, clear daylight.
The stage is set now for a year or maybe two to pass and Canelo gets his rematch and beats a properly faded Golovkin. GGG was every bit as aggressive in this fight but the zip seemed to be gone from his punches, 12 months ago Canelo gets wrecked. GGG didnt cut off the ring very well, he made it easy for Canelo to spin away from the right hand.
That said, he still won that fight.
When God said to the both of us "Which one of you wants to be Sugar Ray?" I guess I didnt raise my hand fast enough

GGG looked shite in this fight, all he had was the pressure going for him but cut the ring off in a poor way except in spots, and missed every overhand right he threw save 2. He was tentative and didnt let his hanbds go enough, and his mediocrity really was exposed by a rather shite canelo as well, who never took the fight to GGG except in rare spots where he did land some good 6 and 7 punch combos. But we can all see that ****MARVIN THE FUCKING MONSTER HAGLER WOULD HAVE FUCKING DECAPITATED THIS KAZAKHH SHEISTER***** GGG is not a great fighter but just a good solid fighter and canelo is not a good solid fighter but a survivor which ***STINKS*** up the sport of boxing why the fuck didnt a 27 year old young boy throw 300 punches in a desperate attempt to clearly win the last 3 rounds is beyond me.
***fixed*** for the rematch

Life long friend ragging on the phone about a sport I talked them into 2 years ago. Fun times.
"Your list will grow just remember what you actually saw happen" is probably not encouraging for future ppv buys.

Do you even like boxing? Seriously? There was some quality work there by two great fighters in a barnstormer that actually delivered on the hype. There is nothing mediocre about Golovkin and just disagreeing with the hyperbole used when talking about him does not mean you have to dismiss his career in such a daft manner. You just come across like GaMo a troll trying to bait people into not talking about the fight, and showing no respect to the fighters or the sport. Canelo is way more than a survivor and certainly not a boy, some of his work was top drawer against an opponent who could smother and negate the majority of fighters in and around his division. Big balls on the pair of them to be throwing for 12 rounds in against their most dangerous opponent to date.
The only sheister was Byrd with a scorecard filled out in 2016 and two blowhards who can't admit that both men are way above good solid fighters. They are both Great fighters. Amongst the greatest ? Show ain't over , but you do them and the art a disservice to dismiss it so easily.
That was a great fight between two tremendously talented operators who gave it their all. Respect and hats off to them both. A modern classic.
@Beanz I am talking about the fight and I did enjoy the fight... are you still drunk?

Oscar and Canelo waited and picked GGG at a time they thought was safe...and still lost. Had to resort to running, clinching, and trying to fight 1 minute of a round to steal it. Canelo has an even better chin than I thought. GGG still had more left than I thought he did and is a better boxer than I thought.

I would like to watch the fight again on a crisp HD recording so i can count punches landed etc round by round. I think people are forgetting that aggression and pressure doesn't necessarily affect the score cards. I remember Canelo having plenty of good moments and i remember GGG missing lots. Canelo side stepped quite a few of GGG's rights. Its impossible to judge correctly when ive had a few beers and i'm tired.
Im pretty sure GGG won but i need to rewatch it before cementing my own decision.
Cant argue that it was edge of your seat epicness though.
The thing is that really everybody on here had it for GGG (I think one had it for Canelo and one a draw) and every boxer and "expert" I've seen so far had it for GGG. So whether or not Canelo could have possibly gotten enough rounds to win doesn't really matter because the odds of getting a pair of three judges who would create a split draw in this fight is about 100-1. So either Canelo beat the odds or the fix was already in. I'll stick with the latter.
