So he had one decent win 6 years ago, and only has 2 wins vs anyone with a wiki in his whole career, yes super impressive. Imagine thinking 'perennial title contender' means anything in todays alphabet soup especially in probably the weakest division.
No, actual boxing media journalists, who watch, report and analysis the sport for a living. Probably the best metric to give a measure of public sentiment on a fight. Only 2 of them thought Canelo won, and you are still arguing?
no, if you actually read the article, like 2/3 are mma websites and general tweets from assorted reporters from random news sites. here’s the list:

that’s 6 actual boxing publications/reporters with 3 draws, and 2 for golovkin by literally one point. harold lederman is the only mildly respectable pundit on that list who had it for golovkin by more than a point. here’s the boxing world reacting to the fight:

regardless, you can cry corruption all you want but the guy who comes forward and lands more power punches usually wins the fight.
