you want it to be a draw because of 4 more power punches which did not phase golovkin at all
I want it a draw because that's what I saw, either a draw or Golovkin by 1 or 2 points. Compubox is just half of the story, you can't analyze a fight just looking at the numbers. For example, according to the data Canelo was more effective rounds 4, 5, 6 and 7. However no one gave those rounds to Canelo, for most people Golovkin won the middle rounds.
And remember there are four things which are scored each round, not just punches connected:
1. Effective Aggression: GGG was aggresive but not always effective.
2. Ring Generalship: A slight advantage to GGG but some rounds Canelo seemed more comfortable and were fighting his fight.
3. Defense: Canelo was better.
4. Hard and Clean punches: For me it looked Canelo connected the best punches but it was close.
