I gave round 2 to Canelo, as a lot of people did. No point in debating this, it was a close fight. I personally had it a draw. No one flourished or benefitted from this fight outside of maybe financially.
You can argue it til your blue in the face. A lot of people are giving Canelo the fight because he came to fight and people have seen better displays of "boxing clinics" before. Lara did nothing to try and win the fight. And got sloppy as **** after round 4. He did all his best work in the first three rounds...
Plain and simple.

He's not barely missing most of the time either.

i think i gave 8 or 9 rounds to lara
levi martinez gave salido vs loma to loma - i guess he didnt like salido's hip shots but liked it when canelo did it
and compubox definitely counted shots that hit lara's elbows
that judge also scored shumy vs campillo for campillo 9-3 and campillo was the one moving......
as a true boxing fan and not a nuthugger, i only have a problem with that judge being in boxing
it obviously was not incompetence , it was corruption
but thats boxing, we have been boxing fans long enough to know this stuff happens
lara should have known too...........
canelo impressed me with his chin and mentality
that guy is gonna go farLast edited by jas; 07-14-2014, 11:48 AM.

I wouldn't have a problem with this fight if either man won it more convincingly.
Canelo lacked the bounce in his step to be a real pressure fighter, and never doubles up on the jab or jabs his way in consistently enough. He was never able to trap Lara on the ropes once.
Lara lacks the volume when its needed and it will probably never change.
You guys have all admitted to swing rounds now. So this fight is practically a done deal.
