Missing wildly , getting countered , walking into punches , throwing ineffective body shots out of frustration is enough to get you a win ?? Damn boxing has gone to sh#t lately .
Yes . It just wasn't enough . Canelos frustration said it all . no one can give Canelo anything more than 5 rnds .
I know , I can see that now. I bet if Lara even scored a knockdown , the fight would have came out as a DRAW and Lara still would have not been awarded the win .
Ineffective bodyshots? Surely an oxymoron. Besides, those 'ineffective' bodyshots slowed Lara down so much that Canelo thought he was in the Matrix. Run Forest, run!
That fight would have been a lot more competitive had Canelo fought with the right gameplan . Canelo deserved to be embarrassed the way he was .
Media score cards 34 for Canelo, 30 Lara and 25 draw out of the 89. Close fight that could have went either way.
Interesting that Angulo's punch stats against Lara were better than Canelo's. Against Lara, Angulo outlanded Canelo by 50 punches.
Easy to understand blocking/slipping punches is defense, backing up trying not to engage is running. I don't see how anybody can get mad at people calling Lara a runner when boxer's out there are saying Lara was running. Hell Pulie who said he thought it could go either way and scored it for Lara close said Lara was running at points.
Despite getting stopped , Angulo put Lara threw hell and back ,he scored effective punches (Unlike Canelo) , knocked him down 2x and had him hurt in that fight . Canelo never came close to having any success that Angulo did .
