First off I think it has to be said that the match lived up to the hype. It was a great fight and a match up the fans have been wanting to see and I'm glad we got to see it. The fight ended in a controversial draw. Aren't all draws at least somewhat controversial, especially when it's a big event with a lot of people watching.
Most people agree that the first few rounds were pretty even, GGG took over in the middle rounds, and Canelo made a comeback in the final few rounds. I would agree with that assessment. I mean if I aboslutely had to pick a winner I'd pick GGG but I mean it was a really close fight.
Let's look at the fight stats provided by boxingscene.com
GGG has the advantage in total punches but Canelo has more power punches. What constitutes a power punch in debatable but either way the numbers aren't too off I'd imagine. I don't have much more to say other than I hope we get a rematch because this fight was awesome.
