I was coming back from abroad at the weekend and due to a few problems , didn't get the chance to see the fight till now . I gave a couple of 10-10 rounds early on , but I have to say I had it a 115-115 draw. GGG obviously was chasing Canelo down for most of the fight, but not particularly well. and Canelo spent most the fight moving round the ring because he was probably wary of GGG's power.
I'm probably gonna get caned now, but I believe @
brocktonblockbust does have a point. These guys are good solid fighters, but that's it! Neither is ever gonna be an ATG.
GGG has lost his aura, Maybe because he's getting old or maybe because the step up in quality of opponents he's facing has exposed him a little. And Canelo just isn't a good enough quality Boxer or have enough stamina and conditioning to get up there. If Canelo fights the best opponents , he will not win every fight from now on in, that's for sure.
Ward and Kovalev were so much better than these 2 guys and it makes the notion laughable that GGG might have beat Ward.
When you throw Rigo, Loma , Crawford , Inoue and Spence into the mix and to be honest neither would get in my top 5 p4p at the moment.
