I could put up a better fight than Brandon Cook. Munguia is violent mofo though

An all time classic fight this.

[The Great One]

No complaint this time. Canelo won the fight. GGG fought scared in the first 3-4 rounds.

Constant aggressor bullshit right here. All live betting events had GGG at 1/20 to 3/20 in R12. Lol.

GGG did enough to win this one.

[The Great One]

Lol Canelo was the more aggressive fighter the WHOLE fight. GGG started fighting in round 7.

Canrlo easily won the 1st 6 rounds.

Alright, have watched it twice now, and ya, I've got Canelo winning 115-113, like the two judges, but could see the draw as well. Canelo landing significantly more power shots, at a higher percentage, plus being the aggressor absolutely the entire fight, gives him the edge for me in many of those close rounds. Absolute classic fight. Loved it.

I re-watched it and got draw. Anyway... Adalaide Byrd's absurd scorecard hurts even more now...

Thank you.

It was a classic fight. It was a close fight. Canelo won because he was the more aggressive fighter. Even when he was getting hit, he still kept coming. And he landed some bombs on GGG too. It's not like he was just aggressive.

GGG fought like a completely different fighter. He was backing down pretty much the whole fight -- specially in the first few rounds. I think he felt Canelo's power early on, i think he was scared that he might get knocked out.

When every round is close, you give the round to the more aggressive fighter.

Joshua is just the best
