    so how did Ruslan lose. Ruslan was landing the harder shot and did more damage than Canelo could claim too. I had Ruslan and Canelo winning. Who does the most damage should win a fight. Even Floyd Sr. felt Canelo won.

    Crazy b/c I scored it for Lara, while scoring for Ruslan.

    But Algeri threw more and landed more than Ruslan, whereas Lara did as well, but only by a 28 shot margin.:-(

    This is getting so boring. fights are scored round by round, just because 2 fights are vaguely similar overall doesn't mean you just lump the same score on them.

    Canelo won, algieri won, deal with it.

    boxing is based on many things, ring generalship, clean and effecrive punches, defense. a lot of algieris punches were weak and did not land flush. lara was running while canelo pursued him. he was pot shotting while canelo throw 2 or 3 combos. laras punches were also not as effective as canelos was

    Wrong

    Lara literally ran

    They were rubber tracks in the ring after the fight :rofl

    It looked like a scene from fast and furious :patsch

    Algieri punches where enough to slow down Provodnikov attack and even at times snap his head back, also usually got good leverage into his body punches.

    Canelo and Ruslan may have fought similarly but that doesn't mean Algieri and Lara fought the same

    effective movement and counterpunching vs running away....
