Cayó el rayo en el mismo lugar, por segunda vez. Gennady Golovkin es víctima de una decisión en su contra, por parte de los jueces, totalmente cuestionable y vergonzosa.

Aunque fue un combate intenso, de buen nivel y bastante balanceado, la inmensa mayoría de las personas que se han expresado en las redes están ofendidas con esta decisión mayoritaria a favor de Canelo Alvarez.

Un juez la vio empate 114-114, mientras que los otros dos vieron ganar al mexicano 115-113.

Si usted es uno de tantos indignados con la apreciación de los tres jueces, y que ésto es un descaro en contra de GGG, pue sepa que no está sólo.

Aquí reproducimos la lectura de la pelea por parte del perito en boxeo en el USA Today, Josh Peter, quien vio ganar a Golovkin siete de los doce asaltos, para un triunfo 115-113.

Peter tenía a Álvarez arriba luego de 8 rounds 77-75, pero vio a Golovkin cerrar más fuerte y contundente en los últimos 4 asaltos para lograr la remontada. Al sumar 10-9 en cada uno de los episodios 9, 10, 11 y 12, el peleador kazajo terminó sumando 115, contra 113 el azteca.
