On Saturday, my social media feeds were full of talk about the fight between Canelo Alvarez and Gennady Golovkin. This was supposed to be the “fixer” after the debacle that was the Mayweather-McGregor “super fight” a few weeks earlier.
Instead, die-hard boxing fans got what they seem to get more often than not these days – a whole lot of disappointment.
The fight was ruled a draw with one judge scoring the fight 115-113 (Golovkin), one judge scoring the fight 114-114 and a third judge scoring the fight 118-110 (Alvarez). Five rounds that two judges scored for Golovkin, the third judge scored for Alvarez.
