    Everyone case for Canelo winning is his bodyshots and that's about it , and the truth is his bodyshots were just not effective and not enough .

    He was outlanded and outboxed the majority of the fight .

    Alvarez won, get over it. You can't win a fight moving around and only throwing one twos while your opponent is throwing power shots to the body. Lara was barely effective and sometimes he would move around without throwing anything. It was Alvarez who made the fight.

    There won't be a next time and the result won't be any different. Both fighters will fight the exact same way and people will score the fight as they so desire.

    Lara outlanded Canelo by 10 whole shots and the majority of Lara's punches were flicking jabs with a few actual hard shots mixed in. Every punch Canelo hit Lara with was a power punch, there is a fine line between boxing and flatout refusing to engage and Lara did both.

    You make this arguement he made Canelo look worse than Mayweather did but Mayweather actually stood in front of Canelo, there was 7 ft between Lara and Canelo 60% of that fight the way Lara was backing up. If you make your opponent miss but don't do anything you don't win that rd by not doing anything, your opponent does for forcing the fight. Effective aggression comes into play when both fighters are throwing if only one guy is throwing anything it's called activity.

    curious how you scored the pac-macne3 fight.

    pac was the aggressor and landed more iirc.

    pac is also the a-side, obviously.

    C'mon folk lets be honest about this
    1.. Canelo is a golden boy fighter
    2...The fight was promoted by GB & Canelo promotions
    3... Canelo is looked upon as the "cash cow"
    Who in the heck do you think is going to get the decision?? Like Mayweather all Canelo has to do to win is be standing at the end

    The fight was close but I had Lara the clear winner 115-113 as did most of the guys watching together. Look at the surprise on Canelos face when he got the decision he knew he got beat. Actually I feet sorry for Canelo he knows fans know he got a gift yet Still he refuses to give Lara a rematch.
    One final ???? Why is it you folk dissing Lara's style rabidly applaud Floyds even more blatant box and move style kinda hypocritical don't you think????

    I scored to lara but I'm so glad they gave it to Canelo. I normally get wound up when I think the judges have got it wrong but laras performance really annoyed me. Was absolutely **** to watch.

    The old saying use to be you had to beat the champ to win. well lara did that. however that standard is no longer applicable.

    Knew standard: you have to knock a cash cow KTFO to win. ask marquez
