you mean literally all that landed on lara's protector and elbows? there was a replay review done on the fight and over 40 of the 80 counted body shots on compubox where reviewed as having not landed at all! it was a one sided boxing lesson lara made canelo look ridiculous!
So out of 89 media score cards 30 had Lara winning the rest had Canelo or a draw that to me sounds like a fight that could have went to either guy not a robbery otherwise the percentage who scored it for Lara would have been higher.
how when canelo was nearly doubled on landed shots on compubox review? everyone knows canelo lost even some of his mexican fans
Everyone knows yet a higher percentage of the 89 scorers had Canelo winning or a draw than a Lara winning.
This content is protected you mean like ray mancini, robert guerro both who scored it wide for Lara, andy lee and liam smith to and carl frampton, what about malignaggi amir khan or the show time broadcasters, and the judges on showtime? all who had him winning, give it up it's a drawn out subject that everyone knows Lara won simple as
I have no problem with people who think Lara won as it could have went either way. After the fight forum polls where split on many different forums, as I linked 89 media score cards opinion was split, so issue I have is people acting it was a complete robbery when so many people think it could have went the other way or a draw.
All those i listed who are all former champions disagree! it was an 8-4 fight for Lara, so many people called it a robbery for a reason because although lara was conservative you couldn't have given the fight to canelo, he was outboxed out smarted and was made to fight Lara's fight, he was also outlanded to! that's why you couldn't have given it to canelo, levi martinez also is possibly the most corrupt judge in boxing, when cards read 4-0 against khan before he got stopped and 11-1 on 2 cards against cotto, and even a draw on one card vs floyd, getting a SD vs canelo says everything you need to know about the fight
Canelo's undefeated at 154-lb. Floyd wouldn't fight Canelo at 154-lb, only at 152. And there, Canelo won a lot more than no rounds. In fact, Canelo won 6 rounds on 1 card and 4 rounds on another.
Why did 59 out of 89 not see it a clear win for Lara then? Even Malignaggi had 115-114 for Lara which is only 1 round in it.
Fight was basically a draw. AT a catchweight Floyd needed to weaken Canelo. Floyd had one big round, the other 11 rounds were even stevens. After the fight, Floyd praised Canelo indicating it was one of his closest fights.
