    Ffs! Stop posting like a 10 year old. Of course they fucking count! Both fights were close, so even if you think GGG won, they’re not exactly a robbery either way.
    I don’t know what the fuss is all about, I genuinely thought the 1st fight was a draw, and I genuinely thought Canelo one the 2nd. But I totally see how people might have had it different.
    There have been way worse decisions. Come on, I’m not a fan of Canelo , and until GGG started whoring himself out to Canelo like a little bitch, I was a fan of his. But you have to see it as it is.

    Some of us think GGG should've won both fights, so go figure. Canelo wasn't going to lose a decision in Vegas... and anyone who thinks otherwise probably still believes in the stork.

    This time around GGG was the bigger name, so he probably got a little bit of a consolation gift decision.

    The bigger name gets the nod. And there ain't no bigger name in Vegas than Canelo.
    Like I said, I get that, and although I don’t agree, I wouldn’t argue massively against it. There wasn’t a lot in it.
    But my point is, you know you’re not gonna get a decision in Vegas against Canelo after the first fight.
    So why bother chasing a rematch unless you’re gonna go in hard looking for a KO?

    GGG looked less likely to KO Canelo in the 2nd fight than he did in the 1st. So why bother?


    Absolutely Primo. No issues with that. The 2nd fight was puzzling and maddening all at the same time.

    It was a bit similar to that in the fight this weekend too. Some say sickness, some say age, but GGG just wasn't quite pulling the trigger like he once did and was retreating a lot. I think the KD saved him, but just maybe his opponents are better, know what is coming now, and that he has declined somewhat too. Asides from Canelo who I honestly do not rate like Beanz seems to, GGG has been taking tune ups and just maybe he has lost his way and father time has taken what he had.

    At the end of the day he is 37 and won't get any better with the style he has. I also don't like how he seems to just block punches with his head either. The man has a chin for sure, but I don't like seeing a man not really attempt to avoid the punches. We have seen that more since Brook.

    Maybe a rematch to prove his doubters wrong, but he didn't rematch Jacobs and we will see with this. It would be nice to see him comeback and put on a convincing display, but he really did squeak this one and that first round KD wasn't much of a KD.
