Canelo v Golovkin

I think Eubank has improved massively since that wake up call, he's a brutal fighter now

Here we go mate

 

I'm still up. I paid for the fight first time i believe these guys deserve it.

 

I've just stuffed another wedge on GGG to win by KO/TKO, plus another wedge on the fight to last less than 10.5 rounds

Come on!

 

Here we go

Let's get ready to rumble

 

That's ridiculous mate. Boxing is just two people having a straightener wearing big gloves then.

You clearly dont understand the amount of skill and discipline required in martial arts. Having a solid ground game is an art. Boxers need to learn how to box. Boxing is just one skill that a mixed martial artist has to learn.

 

The rules are there in black and white. I think it must just be vague to you.

 

Whatever

 

Covered my bet in the 7th with GGG to win on points. If this goes against him it's the most bent decision ever

 

What a ****ing joke 118-110 hahahahaha bent as ****. Abolsute nonsense of a decision GGG ****ing wedged the ****. I gave the ginger Mexican 4 rounds tops. Pisstake

 

lol there you go bent result. ****ing draw

 

Split arse judge 118-110 to Canelo hahahaha cash in the arse pocket. Bent as ****. Robbed of a fortune here

 

What a ****ing farce

 

I didn't stay up for it but if the judge was genuinely bent, why score it so ludicrously in his favour? A 115-113 and it would have been just about plausible based on what I've read of the fight.

 

You'd be wrong though.


MMA is for mugs who can't box.

 

Good fight or over hyped rubbish?

 

Wouldn't bet on boxing for those very reasons ... love watching the olympic boxing but some of the judging there had me raging too.

MMA bit too homo erotic if you ask me

 

Just watched the fight, couldn't be arsed at 4

I think a draw was fair enough to be honest. I had it 115-113 Golovkin, but Alvarez was class and was picking his shots better.

First 5 rounds GGG was punching from too far away, through a combination of being hit hard early with bodyshots which clearly made him wary, and Canelo moving well, and most of those must have gone to Canelo. After that Golovkin came on strong but Canelo went toe to toe with him at various points. GGG did about enough through sheer number of punches, but I can see how someone scores it 114-114. The 118-110 was nonesense though.

Great fight, can't wait for number 2!

 

Mixed martial artists do a different form of boxing, out of necessity to stop kicks. I wouldn't say one sports is necessary more technical than another, because an MMA fighter may have more skills over more disciplines, but I will note that the amount of people I see doing Karate or Kung Fu (ie ****ing zero) underlines how mixed the martial arts on display really are.

I would back any decent boxer to absolutely destroy an mma fighter in his division in the ring, and I'd probably say the same of an mma fighter going into the octagon with a boxer.

 

Who won? didnt watch it...stopped watching boxing when Tyson got sent down for rape

 

I don't know what's worse? The result of the fight, which GGG clearly won or the fact that they announced Canelo as the 'lineal middleweight champion of the world' despite GGG holding the WBA, WBC, IBF and IBO belts?

If I was GGG I'd tell De la Hoya to go **** himself if they want a rematch and go after BJS and destroy him to become the Undisputed MW champion with all of the belts, despite what the Ring Magazine bellends think.

Boxing is now a ****ing joke
