Shocking
Soldato
Hmm not sure that was the correct result.

Saw it coming tbh, this one was closer than the first fight and they called that one a draw.

From the commentary it sounded like a Golovkin win. Be interested to hear from anyone watching it.

GGG should have won, he threw and landed a lot more punches.

Close fight but I thought GGG had nicked it at the end, that last round swung the fight the other way on the cards though 
I don't think we'll see a third fight, somehow I don't think they will be able to make it now that Canelo has the win.

I had GGG win. Although it was a close split decision so thinking about it no robbery.

I had it as a GGG win. Was very close but Saul tired towards the end quite badly especially in the 10th round. Great fight. Just a shame the cheat won

Corrupt judges in Las Vegas, who would have thought?
Soldato
I’d hardly say corrupt - it was a really close good quality fight. Could have gone either way.
As for corruption where there is money they will always be corruption.

As much as I like GGG I thought Canelo won that pretty convincingly.
Battered him for the first 6/7 rounds or so, GGG outlanded him with jabs making up the bulk whilst canelo was smashing his face and body with sharp and precise power punches. GGGs face at the end looking like a busted piñata tells the story of the fight for me. He came back strong towards the end and had about 3 solid rounds but even some of the late rounds were competitive.
Think he gets beat even more convincingly in a 3rd fight.

GGG won, he landed more punches and the punch stats back that up, but this was a lot closer than the first fight. GGG won this by two rounds tops, but he won.
I love boxing, but there was no way GGG would ever beat Canelo on points.

Not surprised at the result, he clearly won the last fight and if this was closer, which appears to be the case, it would've needed to be a KO for him not to be robbed again.
Read a few reports this morning and a lot of people thought 116-112 would've been a fair result and a lot of pros are livid.
At least GGG won't be remembered as a drugs cheat when he retires.

There was no way GGG won it by 4 rounds 
I had it him winning by 1 round but it was close. Great fight but as I said shame the cheat won
