Jesus fvck, what are you, twelve? "I like fighter A so I'm gonna ignore his drug test failure & whine about his opponent"? Fvcking idiot.
I was one of the few who scored the first fight to canelo
Ah, so you're a fvcking idiot who is also completely unaware how a boxing match is scored. Double whammy.
any boxers or trainers who read this post are laughing at how naive you are.
Even the paid judges didn't find a way to score it for Canelo so I would not be to loud about it if you wan't to be taken seriously. Liking someone is not scoring criteria in boxing :stop:

I'm going to rewatch the fight this week. I'll do my round by round scoring. GGG was outboxed for most of the fight, simple as.

When the boss of the Nevada commission apologizes for the scoring of the judge who gave it to Alvarez you should probably take your blinkers off.

Yeah apologising for a 118-110 score means that there is no way Alvarez won the fight.

dan rafael who i believe is usually credible for news says vada submitted paperwork to the vegas commission saying his levels were above meat tainting level, so not sure the standard mexican/clen use will fly, could really be in for months of suspension. also canelo didnt test year round so even if it was just traces it couldve just been him caught cycling off.

though ive seen ppl get suspensions that only go into effect after a fight, tony yoka just git that though not in vegas

Tbh, it’s got to the point where I just don’t care about this fight anymore. We’ve already seen Canelo gifted a draw by the judges in the first fight, now he’s failed 2 drugs tests and the governing bodies are making excuses on his behalf ffs. Golovkin should just walk away and fight someone else. Fvck Alvarez!

I skipped some Floyd fights because it was clear how the fight was going to go.

But we are on a forum where most PAID to watch the likes of Khan Salita on PPV.

Perhaps but Canelo Golovkin will almost surely be a good fight to watch. Floyd v Berto was the sort of stinker you'd possibly miss - wake up and watch maybe or even just check the result and watch it if, by some miracle, it didn't end up a 12 round Floyd decision snoozer.
