Golovkin by UD but the 'Draw' is leading to a big money rematch which is much better for G

Post by apollo creed »

Both fighters had their moments but Golovkin with his pressure style drained Canelo of his energy. GGG's plan was good to fight at a higher pace using his jab and his footwork and IMO he edged the fight quite well. Canelo's main weapon was his speed and his eye catching shots. Also Canelo's head and chin look like are made of granite rock. It's very hard to knock him out or stop him, even hurt him.

Bayless was doing his job very well. Nothing to complain but Adalaide Byrd 110-118 ??? for Canelo, it's fishy like a rotten fish.

In rematch GGG's team should be very, very careful to what judges they agree on.

Overall it was a good competitive fight. :TU:

I would've thrown a fit about Adalaide Byrd from the get go.

Yep, Atabyg Tyrd is definitely a sign.

Golovkin won it by a distance. GBP had the fix in if there boy wasn't stopped.

I think GGG likes money as much as the next athlete, but I think he is also concerned about his legacy. It seems to me he would have preferred a win but a big-money rematch will help him settle for the draw, since there is nothing he can do to appeal or protest the decision anyway.

Money's not everything, but it can sure help ease the pain in some situations, this being one of them!!

GGG's camp needs to make it a point to object to her inclusion in ANY of his future fights. Her scorecard here is all they need as EVIDENCE! :lol:
