    Does anybody know where I can find a copy of the Levi Martinez scorecard for Canelo vs Lara?

    I think I saw it posted on fightnews when everyone was calling it a fix. Levi's card was a joke.

    Moretti had it 115-113, Canelo

    Roth had it 115-113, Lara

    Judge For hire, cheap, Martinez had it 117-111, Canelo

    Lara landed 107 punches to Canelo's 97 punches in the fight.
    In jabs, Canelo landed 9 of 183 jabs while Lara landed 55 of 246 jabs. :lol:

    I had no problem with Moretti's scorecard. It was a close fight and some score based on a fighter's willingness to stand toe to toe over ring generalship, so I can respect his scoring. But Martinez had his scorecard filled out before the fight even began. :yep

    I'm not sure that Canelo would of even been able to knock out Lara. But one would think Lara should have known not to run around so much.

    He outlanded Canelo without getting hit. The perfect objective of Cuban boxing.

    Had he stayed in the pocket just a little longer throwing and landing a few more combinations, his win would have been clearer.
    Canelo doesn't throw back when he is in defence mode so lara could have stood there or stopped a little longer than he did.
    He landed the sharper, crisper, and more accurate shots in the fight. Had he connected with just another 10%, the fight would have been his. :yep

    Moretti usually appreciates the pure boxer. That's why he always ends up scoring Floyd fights. I wonder what ****ed him off? :think

    Bro Lara ran and thought playing pitty pat would win Lara landed a whole 10 more punches and most of which were soft jabs while Canelo landed all power shots.
    I thought it was close and gave Lara 5 rds but Lara fought scared and started running as soon as Alvarez touched his body.
    To put it in perspective Mayweather landed 200+ shots on Canelo, Lara tried to run and thought it would work.

    Yet in your initial post you said Lara clearly exposed Canelo?

    Yet you have no problem with a card which says Canelo won?

    Hunter probably saw his opportunity to cash out on Khan, so he could focus more on Dre.[emoji6]

    YDKSAB, and pitty-pat punches don't mark up an eye like Canelo's eye looked after taking those straight left hand counters.
    80 of Canelo's power shots were body shots, many of which hit Lara's elbows.

    If Canelo makes a mistake of trying to stand there and outbox Khan , there will be only one winner. Guys who stand off Khan get picked apart, Canelo will be no different.

    As the rule book goes the fight goes 12 rounds only one winner Khan, GBP cant pinn the judges as this is a international fight, they cant pull that BS, the judges will give it to Khan..

    Canelo only has a punchers chance, he cant outbox Khan..

    I'll cheer for Khan, but am resigned to Canelo catching him and overpowering him.

    The fact that Khan thinks he can or does fight like Lara just goes to show how little he knows about boxing and himself.

    Khan fights nothing like Lara, sure they are fast and agile but there are big differences. Lara actually knows how to box and can stick to a game plan. Lara moves to get opponents out of position so he can counter, Khan moves to just not get hit, when Khan attacks he instigates giving opponents the opportunity to counter while when Lara attacks he's the one countering.

    Then of course Lara is a southpaw and also Lara's game plan didn't win him the fight. Khan doesn't have the discipline to stick to just boxing, he'll get drawn in and even if he does box well, it still may not be enough to get a decision.
