I dont get why Canelo has chilled on the ropes for half of the last rounds 4-5 for no reason. Man, that straight right Canelo landed at the end of rd 5 didnt phase GGG and he made that face that #### just got real. Then they really started throwing in rd 6. Hell yeah

Canelo standing still, eats a heavy body shot. Canelo with a good combination. Golovkin undeterred. 10-9, 88-83 Golovkin.

 
6-3 GGG.  I think he knows he's got it now.  He's eating Canelo's best shots and they do nothing.  Canelo sure loves to keep his hands down for a guy getting pummeled.  This fight is all over but the cryin.

 
Round ten: Counter uppercut from Canelo as they trade in the center. The combinations are flowing. 3-2 and now Golovkin seems buzzed. Big shots landing over and over.

Lead right hand by Golovkin. Again. Clinch with a minute to go. Canelo bangs to the body, clinch. Golovkin backs him to the ropes. Clinch. Combination from Gplovkin, Canelo answers and they’re slugging it out. This is just violence. 10-9 Alvarez, 97-93 Golovkin.

 
Round eleven: Golovkin continues to advance. Right to the body from Golovkin lands to the back, Golovkin acknowledges it. Body shot from Canelo, 1-1-2 from Golovkin. Overhand right.

Goovkin slugs until the bell. 10-9 Alvarez, 116-112 Golovkin.

 
Kudos to both fighters for going hard until the final bell.  Canelo didn't have it tonight (IMO) but he's shown heart as always.  He turned it on in the end but GGG didn't make that last round easy.

116-112 GGG on my card.  Not easy but a clean win.
