    I had Lara winning at the time not sure about a rewatch, I'll check it over the holidays. (I'm a Lara fan so doubt my opinion changes)

    Even Lara's own stablemates felt he didn't deserve to win.

    Had he engaged more then yes but he at least did enough for a draw but 115/113 Canelo was fair in my book

    So much of a benefit that Lara's pals scored it for Canelo

    Saw the same to me after round 3 unless you really value head shots canelo all the way usually 4-6 head shot vs 9-15 bodyshots

    Lara ran way too much in that fight. I had never seen Lara run so much before and never seen him run since.

    "canelo vs lara" is canelo's "floyd vs castillo". You score those fights and suddenly you realize that all the idiots repeating that are nothing but parrots.

    Lara threw A TON of rounds in the last part of the fight. And it was one of the most disgusting displays of **** I've ever seen. And even if lara won, I would not care, he deserved to lose. It was disgusting.

    EDIT: not so long ago lara would not have even received his purse.
