Who do you think won GGG/Canelo 2?

[Gandalf]

Were they evenly matched over 24 rounds though. Granted the chins are both granite, but GGG appeared to win in two different ways according to most observers. Now if it was split 50/50 as to who people think won then fine, it was close, but that hasn't been the case. Every poll has GGG winning both fights. Yet somehow these judges are unable to see it. This suggests that boxing has something seriously wrong with it.

I can see how some rounds are close based on what you are looking at/for, but when GGG is unable to ever get the nod. Ever. It suggests that judging is no different to fake news. Everyone knows what they saw.

Golden boy production, golden boy fighter in golden boy city.....

With those three factors in mind, shouldn't Golovkin have been going for the knockout just to be sure?

I had GGG winning 9-3, the rounds were close but the jab was point scoring and damaging. I think GGG was thinking he was outpointing Canelo and just did what he needed to do to win the round. You can not blame GGG for doing what he did which was land the point scoring punches and rounds in the bag.

Whilst the margin was wide for me the rounds were close. If this was a tennis match GGG won 3 sets to nil but all the sets were 7-6.

[GAME]

I had GGG winning again. He landed more punches controlled the fight with his jab and started hurting Canelo towards the end.

however I do think the triple G era is over. At 36 he's getting worse in each fight. Canelos getting better and if "clenelo" is off the peds now then he showed he can stand his ground at 160 and doesn't need to run vs anyone.

if there is a 3rd it shouldn't be in Vegas. Canelo should have atlast 4 losses on his record now but he isn't losing a decision regardless. Charlo should be next. Time for the new blood to take over

I suppose what I was trying to get across was how much closer Canelo was to GGG over 24 rounds than every other one of GGGs opponents, with the obvious exception of Jacobs. For me GGG did enough over both fights to be two nill in the series, 0-1-1 is a bad joke really. I personally preferred the volume unless trumped by more significant strikes and gave it to GGG 116-112. I liked that Canelo held his ground more this time around but it still wasn't enough to win/nick close rounds in my opinion.

The fact that there wasn't an Adalaide Byrd style scorecard last night with help some legitimise the overall scoring, however giving Canelo the last round and therefore the win even though more subtle was the standout issue for me with the scoring this time around. Will we ever trust Goldenboy and whoever their home fighter is, for me no. If they do it again will the same think happen, almost certainly.

I had GGG winner by 2 rounds he hurt Canelo in the 10th really buzzed him.
Fair play Canelo was tough GGG had his jab in his face all night.
I can't scream at the discussion it depends on what you like it was a good fight.

[Master]

If you have a look at the cards all 3 judges agreed that Canelo was up for the first half of the fight 4-2 for Saul.

They then were split until 10 and 11 which they gave to triple G.

Again they were split on the last round.
