Are you fucking kidding me?

Got to make money for the rematch.
---

Someone scored it 118-110 for Canelo?

Is that person drunk?
---

there's nothing wrong with a draw, that's similar to what i had

118-110 for canelo though, go fuck yourself adelaide byrd
---

I was spot on with Lederman. 8 rounds to 4.
---

That 118-110 score getting jumped on by the announcing team.

I don't follow enough to know the answer but does that judge have enough of a history with this for that prediction to have been a legit concern?
---

I've never seen any footage of GGG before the last 20 minutes, but he seems like the friendliest superstar athlete ever.

What about Manny?

i think GGG probably won it, but it was easy to see a canelo win if you gave him 4 of the first 6 rounds and rounds 11 + 12

yes

but the thing is, it's not always one judge:
https://www.ringtv.com/517100-dougies-friday-mailbag-canelo-ggg-extravaganza/

q: I don’t think the referee (Kenny Bayless) will be a factor as neither fighter fights dirty. What do you think of the judges (Byrd, Moretti, Trella) in terms of which fighter’s style they would favor, if any?

A: I have no idea, JL. I wish I did, but I can’t predict how these veteran judges (and referees) are going to perceive things. But I’ve followed and covered boxing long enough to know there’s a good chance that at least one of the will bend over backwards for the star of the show (which is Canelo). But I’m keeping my fingers crossed that judges get it right and Bayless doesn’t favor either fighter during the fight. `

Manny is pretty conceited, you can sense it when he talks. Maybe GGG is as well (who am I to know, I've only heard one interview), but I didn't sense any hubris or conceit from him tonight, which surprised me given he was 35-0 a few minutes ago and must have been disappointed beyond belief.

Err sorry, 37-0
---

I predicted canelo by decision
---

i have definitely not sensed manny being conceited like at all

i think the humility that pacquiao and GGG have isn't that rare among boxers

GGG is really amazing tho
---

I mean Manny got straight robbed twice by absolutely poor decisions and smiled and took both in stride.

GGG got significantly less screwed (but to literally have to hear 118-110 for Canelo I would have lost my damn mind) but took it well, too.

But like watching GGG just walk him down and take shots and basically never look off-balance or rattled, it was hard to see how you give this fight to Canelo. Like 116-112 felt like the most obvious score, maybe 115-113.
---

118-110 is pretty lol

I feel it was close like 115-113
---

That judge should be fired

The guy who said gay people are worse than animals?

Oh and he tweeted last night whining about Jeff Horn.
---

All 3 judges had Canelo winning rounds 1, 2, 10, 11, and 12.
