I'm so sick of people talking about Canelo-Lara not being a robbery when the 1 card from Levi Martinez is what made the difference.
There's two possibilities for such a wide scoring of 9-3. Incompetence or Corruption! How can he be incompetent if he's the only person in the world to have that scoring? Not to mention he gave Canelo 8 straight rounds, and then remembered to give Lara the last 2!
I'm hearing so many people are okay with this outcome and not talking about the blatant corruption. My question is was this guy corrupt or not?? Canelo is the last real star at GBP and they made sure he was protected imo.
Oh ****. How do I make it public?
So far it is:
Yes 35 68.63%
No 11 21.57%
Not sure 5 9.80%
SHOCKING!
You had to make it public when you first made it. :(
Lara is with Haymon though. Another puppet master in the game so that house fighter **** is weak.
I didn't tried to turn it into a steroid thing. In fact I was mentioning that because that was trully corrupt. Same promotion company at the time with no punishment. You can't pick and choose in this game.
Floyd is with Haymon and the biggest name in boxing yet Canelo managed a draw card against him. So YOUR Haymon argument is weak.
That's exactly my problem. Why don't people say it straight up - It's blatant corruption. I'm so sick of people being okay with it all because it was a close fight. Yeah it was, but this is the guy who ultimately determined the winner.
We should make a list of these corrupt judges and their history. While it wont make any diff to the sport, at least people are aware before betting etc.
Because their fighter won, so they invent excuses and end up in believing their own lies.
It's part of human nature, I guess.
It was an obvious case of corruption, there are precedents (Trout and Mayweather),
but nobody is blinder than the person who decides he does not want to see.
Corrupt ? Yes ... Giving Lara that 12th Made no sense and I don't believe he is incompetent.
The 12th was the only round I scored even, I believe I gave the 11th to Canelo though.
1st, 3rd and 10th for Lara
Could of probably gave him the 2nd aswell but that is the most.
117-112 first time scoring the fight so I don't see why everyone is getting their panties in a twist, he scored the fight to the only guy pushing the action and actually landing damaging shots that were deterring Lara throughout the fight.
Geeee what a coincidence that he favors the house fighter every time.
You brought up Mosley. You tried to turn this into a steroid thing. Cause you're trying to divert attention away from the fact that your guy ONCE AGAIN got another gift scorecard.

Either that or incredibly incompetent at a precisely suspicious looking time. Quite many coincidences for him to be just incredibly incompetent especially when his past rulings had nothing to do with that horsecrap.
No one is perfect. That's part of being human. I'm willing to bet that if you sit each and everyone of us that post on here regularly on the judges seat, we're going to one day come up with a scorecard many people will not agree.
How is my comment derailing? What I quoted was a simple truth.

I guess his Viloria scorecard was also due to his view huh? He did have a better seat than all of us watching on HBO.

i just got done watching the fight again and still dont know how steve farhood gave lara the 8th or 9th rds.
After the 3rd round I only gave Lara rounds 6 and 10.
This Judge Levi Martinez has nothing to lose, he's going to be extinct in a couple of years. All these veteran Vegas judges are just straight cashing out all they can get before the sport of Boxing becomes legit and there is a commissioner.
When you look at when Jimmy Lennon is reading the scorecards the first score that was read was for Lara 115-113 and then as soon as Lennon read the other judge had it Canelo 115-113, Canelo jumps straight on the turnbuckle because he knew the last score was Martinez's and Golden Boy had him in the bag.
How can you celebrate before the announcement of Martinez scorecard? Canelo knew coming in that Martinez was in favor of him.
Maybe so...it's different when you're up close watching it compared to a ****ty stream or on tv.
And if you want to talk about corrupt, let's not forget the guy in your AV, Mosley never got punished for doing something illegal in a fight.
