I missed this one amid all the football games. I expected Canelo to win despite evidence in recent fights of a decline because he's been the light heavy champion and Jermell was the junior middle champion and both Carlos have a rather pedantic, statuesque style while Canelo is constantly busy and is a  a good defensive fighter.

The fight went the distance and was totally one-sided in the scoring, although the highlights in the above clip look a lot better than the Crawford-Spence fight, which was a total beat-down.

Now the question, (perennially), what is Canelo's next move. Is there any point to his fighting the other Charlo brother, Jermall, a middleweight champion, (the twin brothers agreed to campaign in different weight classes so they wouldn't have to face each other). Originally, this fight was to be with Jermall but it was switched to Jermell because, according to Jermall, more money could be made if Canelo beat Jermell and the Jermall sought revenge.

One wonders what Jermelle felt about that scenario. Maybe Canelo should have fought them both at once, or done 6 rounds with one and 6 rounds with the other. Canelo: “I never thought about it. They said that the other Charlo was not ready, and that they want [Jermell] Charlo. I said, ‘Okay, bring whatever, I don't care.'”
