    Here's a simple way to understand the difference between the GGG robbery and the Pac-Horn "robbery."

    The vast majority (95%) of people think Golovkin beat Canelo. Pac-Horn was split 50-50. Therefore Golovkin was robbed and Pac wasn't. Popular opinion. Simple.

    You should be wondering why you're in the tiny minority that thinks Golovkin lost? You should be re-evaluating your own scoring (motives), what are you missing that everyone else can see, not trying to convince the world that they're wrong.

    So you're calling the GGG fight a robbery?

    Everyone was crying that Pac was robbed at the time..short memories on request.

    No, once again, i'll dumb it down even more...

    Lots of fans were saying Pac was robbed. He wasn't robbed because lots of other fans thought he lost. It was split 50-50. If 95% had thought Pac won then it would have been a robbery.

    How many people have you seen score the fight for Canelo apart from YOU and a couple of trolls? YOU are in the minority. YOUR interpretation of the fight doesn't align with everyone else (no sensible fan/pundit/judge agrees with you). Therefore you should be wondering why you got it so WRONG.

    I think you will find that most people are more scarred by the 118-110 score which has intensified the feeling of the result.

    If the Judge gave a 115-113 Canelo score would that be more acceptable in your eyes or did you have it wider than that?!

    This is going round in circles in many threads.

    I just feel Canelo deserves a ton of credit for this fight as everyone was accusing him of ducking and was going to to get knocked out by the bogeyman...Canelo is not to blame for the dodgy judge.

    Also loads of fans said that GGG would get robbed if he didn't score a KO (just look at the main thread, loads of us said it).

    Fans, pundits and writers - Doug Fischer is the editor of The Ring online (works for Golden Boy/Oscar) yet predicted Golovkin will get shafted unless he scores a blowout, Graham Houston, Steve Bunce, Steve Kim etc. They're not even "conspiracy/corruption" wafflers like Teddy Atlas, just, like many fans, knew the house fighter (money man) will be protected by Vegas.

    not very effective pressure from ggg, lots of missed punches, almost amateurish at times, never rocked canelo at all or even hurt him

    ................... not an all time great at all, not even close, choked bad in the last 3 rounds when he needed to really STEP UP AND LET IT ALL HANG OUT

    ********here he was in the Fight of his Life, the fight was close enough that he should have fought his ass off to win it, but instead Canelo OUTHUSTLED his ass in Rounds 10, 11 and 12.

    Marvin Hagler would have found a way to pull that out against a guy like Canelo (who is not exactly the hardest puncher in the world

    It wouldn't have made a blind bit of difference whatever score Canelo "won" by. EVERYONE thought he lost (vast majority/every sensible viewer on the planet). That's the only part that is relevant. Canelo LOST. Golovkin WON.

    The ridiculous scorecard disguises the robbery if anything, as it takes attention away from the main factor.

    That's a fair comment.

    Canelo wasn't active enough and GGG wasn't active enough so it was far from a robbery. Golovkin forced the fight but Canelo did the better work, do you like quantity or quality?

    Read Fensters post, the quantity was with GGG and so was the quality.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    It was an excellent fight. Both guys gave everything. Golovkin won the fight, I say 8,4 . The lady judge had other things on her mind other than watching a great fight.
    Shame, it spoiled a great show.
