    He ran all fight

    lol that's some casual ? to say. Like Floyd been running all these years huh? ? was boxing lol

    Nah the way mayweather did it was different. Canelo was running from one side of the ring to the other every 5-6 punches.

    Mayweather could stand in one spot dodging all types of punches while getting his own in.

    HUG was more of the aggressor in that fight. He definitely edged out that win.

    But hey....it's boxing. We know why they did this.

    Canelo was too inactive at times to win the fight. He cruised the early rounds and then rested too much.
    GGG missed too many punches while being aggressive to win the fight.

    Canelo landed the cleaner punches but rested too much which allowed GGG to look MORE EFFECTIVE but he wasn't, he just threw and Canelo slipped them.

    That's why we got a draw. If a rematch happens, this cannot happen. Neither guy really took control of the fight. It swung both ways. Rounds were split a lot of times. 118 - 110 is a really ? score and Byrd shouldn't judge again for a long time. There was no robbery tonight. The robbery happened last month when Mayweather took everyone's money for the PPV.

    I felt like Canelo won honestly. Where was this vaunted GGG power at?

    ? Canelo was Moonwalking 2minutes and 30 seconds of every round

    And landing the only meaningful body work in the fight and combos..Canelo shoulda kept it in the center of the ring cuz he beat GGG to the punch in a lot of exchanges. Canelo landed the better combos and cleaner punches..

    As much ? Oscar talk about Floyd. His ? ass is pulling a money grab too. My man said at the beginning of the fight. " u know Oscar got a judge in his pocket " and when he said 118-110. He said " and there he is "

    Canelo did control the action in the middle of the ring though. He landed the cleaner punches but as soon as he decided to lay on the ropes, it made GGG look like he was in control and dominating him. Canelo was slipping punches but wasn't doing ? , which allowed GGG to take the rounds. Once again, Canelo lost because he was inactive. He was more active and kept doing what he was doing, he would have win.

    Canelo was a less effective Lara against him

    This is the 2nd fight in a row commentators/spectators are docking GGG points for not knocking out his opponent

    They call him one dimensional and he sit behind the jab and outbox them over the course of the fight

    They got quicker hands(Danny, Canelo) of course they going land flashier shots...they getting banged on though

    If he control the tempo and Outland, how you scoring fights?

    Floyd was potshotting, landing 40% of his shots, and holding the opponent to 20%... disresptful motherfuckas

    was not enough this time, how you the stronger guy but the harder shots land on you? Had nothing to do with him not knocking him out. He just got banged on harder tonight. power shots beat jabs and shoe shine ? all day then when you miss 4-5 punch combos that's just ineffective aggression...

    Canelo shoulda kept the fight in the middle of the ring. Beat him to the punch, dig the body, tie him up, reset.

    Fans boo during the post-fight interviews, but not because of the fight, but the decision. Many felt Gennady Golovkin won the fight and the fact one judge, Adalaide Byrd, gave GGG only 2 rounds and 10 to Canelo Alvarez didn't help.
