Erislandy Lara vs Saul Alvarez.. Who Won?

[War Dinamita]

It was a close fight, but Canelo won. He was the aggressor, more active, and landed the harder shots. Lara ran the whole fight and Lara only landed 10 more punches. Lara was fighting off his back foot the whole night and ran every time Canelo landed a solid shot.

You're not going to win a world class prize fight fighting like that. Even Floyd knows that he needs to be the aggressor and sit down on his punches.

Exactly what Floyd did vs Guerrero, ran and flicked his jab, didn't sit down on anything and potshotted his way to a stinking U.D

You have a TERRIBLE memory.



Lara didn't land hardly anything significant with power, and ate body punches in bunches. Floyd landed his right hand and left hooks at will.

115-113 Canelo.....Lara didn't do enough. When you evade punches for 2.5 minutes and only throw like 4 jabs the entire round, I can't give you too much credit when the other guy is forcing you to fight like that the vast majority of the fight. There comes a point when ring generalship for one guy takes away from what little bit of productivity the other guy does offer up.

I thought Canelo won the fight last night. I was one of the guys that thought Lara would win, but he blew his chance last night not a lot of offense from him it was disappointing.

The point was Floyd ran for most of the fight which he did and is clearly displayed in the video as him pot shotting and that is a highlight video attempting to show nothing but the best punches of the fight.
Floyd fans calling Lara a runner what next Miguel Vasquez fans?

Landed hardly anything significant with power lol he couldn't miss Canelo with that straight left all night
It was Canelo who couldn't land anything meaningful, few bodyshots most of which was blocked, partially blocked or not legal.

114-114 draw with Floyd
117-111 over Lara


How can anybody not look at this funny? Those aren't scores of judges looking at the fight objectively.

Coincidence? lol

Coincidence? lol

Dan Rafael - 116-112 CANELOOOO!!!

[MDPopescu]

I had the fight a draw, only because (for some mysterious reason) Lara didn't step up... Though he didn't look scared or surprised or outpaced or something like that.

Dan Rafael - 116-112 CANELOOOO!!!

Dan's an idiot.

Did anyone on this site seriously score the fight 117-111? I don't think I've seen it. That's saying something. That "judge" needs to be banished from the sport of boxing.
