I'm not a boxing expert but seemed to me like GGG got robbed. He easily seemed like the boxer in control tonight.  Either way--I very much enjoyed watching the fight. 

 
To be fair, a lot of these rounds were really close and could've gone either way, but GGG seemed to have the edge in all of the close rounds.  Giving all of them to Canelo just seems weird.

 
Seems pretty staged for the rematch since Lampley mentioned it about 1 minute after the decision was read. What a joke, 118-110? Seriously? Over/under handjobs Kellerman gives to Canelo late night?

When I watch it, looks like I will think you won.  I can't rebate a draw but I would have a bs win on my side.   We all know Conor had at least 2 out of 3 first rounds at least but got one on one card.  It is bs or the general/big boxing fan has no idea how boxing is scored or it is corrupt as hell.

judges are a part of boxing.  We pushed the bet. Great fight either way.  Maybe we can do it again on the rematch.

If Conor won any rounds something's off.

2 non  Mexicans at my house had Canelo even. Said Canelo punches were bigger. Not sure about that.

I could see how people would see it that way, to be honest.  Canelo threw with more power.  I don't think his punches landed as well as the crowd did, and GGG countered effectively, but I could see how people looking for the big punch would've given a few more rounds to Canelo.  He fights a very viewer-friendly style.  Sits on the ropes and picks his spots while GGG picks him apart punch-by-punch.

 
GGG will kill him in the rematch if Canelo doesnt make him wait a year.  That tentativeness early is what hurt him.  He gave Canelo respect but learned that he couldnt hurt him.

I'm not sure i agree with any of this. GGG was the aggressor with more power.
