Bellew is a G.

The guy fought Haye when everyone thought he would be killed, beat him, and did it again.

Now he's signed to fight a pound for pound elite fighter in Usyk.

Credit to Bellew, in an era of pussies he is willing to fight anyone, he should be praised for that.

Meh... I had draw or GGG. Considering what happened to the first fight, i was hoping they'd give GGG. Shocking decision.

How is it shocking when it's a close fight?

Canelo controlled the fight, he was stalking the supposed brawler all night.

GGG finished strong but Canelo was ahead by then.

He won the fight with body punches, sapped the energy and power.

Legendary fight.

Another fight on points?

Are knock outs banned these days?

Boxing dies a little bit more.

Any chance of canelo stepping up from pub level to fight someone people have actually heard of?

Khan :hail:

As a great man once said, Falling in style.

No idea who the other guy is.

Khan v paq is the fight the world wants to see. Either of these pubbers good enough to get up to that level?

What a fight though.

Shame GGG had to be so salty afterwards.

Legendary fight.
First fight everyone thinks GGG won, Canelo gets the draw.

This fight, much closer and leaning towards a draw, Canelo gets the win. (Public opinion still that GGG won and judge on HBO had him winning too)

The whole "Canelo was winning the story of the fight" narrative had me laughing. "He's taking more damage and losing, but... uhm... he's CHOOSING to do so, therefore, he's winning". Perfect logic. Give me stats of who landed more and who landed cleaner shots, i guarantee Golovkin wins. I don't care if you're chasing a fighter if you're taking the punishment while doing so. If Mayweather fought the same fight Golovkin did, he gets called a genius and gets the decision.

But, oh well, lesson learned, never leave the decision to the judges when you're fighting the boxing cash cow. :dontknow:
