‘Canelo in full control’ - Pros react to Canelo Alvarez’s unanimous nod over GGG in trilogy match

Canelo Alvarez just defeated Gennady Golovkin by way of unanimous decision, in a fight that didn’t feel close, but was still scored that way. One judge had it 116-112, while the other two both saw it 115-113. Despite the weird scoring, Canelo goes up 2-0-1 against GGG, and this saga has likely come to an end. On Twitter, pro fighters reacted to Canelo Alvarez vs. GGG 3.

GGG you had a great run. Come back down to middleweight & let’s fight for those belts you still have in December or just pass em over & I’ll look after them for the next couple years while you enjoy retirement… you earned it champ.
