Former heavyweight world champion Lennox Lewis tweeted: “I have GGG as clear winner. Loved that Canelo swung to the very end! Both are winners tonight.” Former two-weight world champion Paulie Malignaggi said: “Canelo was never in it once it passed about round four or so.” Floyd Mayweather Sr, whose son recently beat mixed martial arts fighter Conor McGregor in a boxing match, said the 118-110 scorecard was “ridiculous” and he saw the fight as a draw. “I didn’t think either one of them fought that good,” he said. “That fight was kind of close, real close.” Former middleweight champion and co-promoter Bernard Hopkins said: “No-one is saying that Golovkin got robbed. “What they are saying is the score of a judge, who has been around for a long time and did a lot of my fights, maybe saw things that we didn’t see and maybe counted things that we should know should have been counted. “The Nevada State Athletic Commission was asked if anything was going to be done about this. We don’t know, we hope. “I don’t think anyone, if you take the score away, would say Golovkin would have got robbed if the score was even closer than it should have been, and Canelo would have won. “The only dispute is that it was a score was so far away from reality that made the fight look the way it did. I’m saying they are two separate situations.” Source: BBC
