    Vis fye vas not wobberwee.......wait a sec, that's better, I've taken Canelo's balls out of my mouth.
    This fight was not a robbery. Cleneo easily outboxed Lara, clearly outlanding with headbutts to the gloves.

    You never know, I know a lot of Mexican dudes who think if they are pitching they aren’t gay. Weird cultural thing I guess.

    Hahhaha.. You have an exposed clear bias against Canelo, why do you deny it?

    I'm clearly more rational and consistent than you when it comes to scoring.

    Unlike you I am level headed and unbias enough to use common sense to understand without a KO, boxing is completely subjective.

    I take zero issue with anyone scoring a fight different than I do, in boxing its only logical that will occur, but what I find annoying and somewhat humurous is when folk like you make comments like the one you did where you claim a close fight is a "robbery", lol, grow the **** up and stop acting like a little *****, you're a mod ffs, be an example.

    Canelo vs. Mayweather & Lara weren't "close fights", though. He was shut out by the former and didn't take more than a couple of round against the latter.

    When he fought Trout and both times against Golovkin, now those were (to his credit, he's a great fighter, notwithstanding being flummoxed into uselessness by Mayweather & Lara) close affairs...which he just happened to clearly deserve to lose, scoring on a RBR basis. Which is a real objective matter whether admitting that suits your agenda or not.

    Do you even acknowledge body punches because if you don't I will never discuss boxing with you again.

    You have a clear bias for Canelo, you think the 6-6 card vs Floyd is fine.
    You put too much emphasis on body shots. Canelo gets this weird thing with fans where jabs don't count and body shots count double.

    The body punches Canelo throws are power punches.

    Many of the jabs fighters throw including GGG are measuring/distance punches thrown with not much behind them and are easier and less risky to throw.

    Power body punch > Jab

    I appreciate EFFECTIVE body punches.

    You think Canelo's barely grazing body touches in most of the Mayweather & Lara fights were effective? Then you my friend DKSA real body punching. Watch some McCallum or even Hatton fights and educate yourself.

    I had Canelo close.

    Saying that was a robbery is an insult to robberies.

    1. Lara 10-9 (Lara 10-9)
    2. Lara 20-18 (Lara 10-9)
    3. Lara 30-27 (Lara 10-9)
    4. Lara 39-37 (Canelo 10-9)
    5. Lara 49-46 (Lara 10-9)
    6. Lara 58-56 (Canelo 10-9)
    7. Lara 67-66 (Canelo 10-9)
    8. Even 76-76 (Canelo 10-9)
    9. Canelo 86-85 (Canelo 10-9)
    10. Even 95-95 (Lara 10-9)
    11. Lara 105-104 (Lara 10-9)
    12. Lara 115-113 (Lara 10-9)

    This fight was relatively close, but I can't see a Nelo win, I define a robbery by that.
    The fact someone would try and deny a 117-111 scorecard to Canelo isn't clearly fixed is ridiculous

    Lara ran. If you say otherwise you just hate Canelo. Seriously.

    Dude never set and threw. Awful fight.

    I had Lara beating him and GGG beating him both times some of the scorecards in Canelo's favor scream corruption. One thing is incompetence but how someone thought he won 10 rounds to 2 in the first GGG fight likewise against Trout, 9 - 3 against Lara, 11 - 1 against Cotto and an even draw against Floyd what are they watching.
