how was Lara/smith 10-2 when

Lol at the comparison. I don't go off compubox but they give you a good idea overall of how the fight went. Lara outlanded canelo by 10 punches throughout the fight if you want to go by compubox. That averages out to less than 1 punch a round. Which means it was super close. I'll take canelos body work and aggressiveness all day over Lara's jabs and running. Yea I said running. A lot of that wasn't movement/boxing. It was straight running. 7-5 ginger

Lara Won by a land slide! If you can't see that then you need to start following another sport!

Ishe LOST because he's a BUM and had no business in the ring with Lara anyway

The difference was the output - and I thought he did more to give the perception that he was the boss last night. I enjoyed that, it looked like he was having some fun too. Smith gave a good effort, started well, good body shots throughout...but in between all that...there was separation in this fight that didn't happen in the Canelo fight imo.

There's a reason Lara was more active,throwing close to 200 more punches in this fight, while having the luxury of clowning around and fighting with his hands down. Two different quality of fighters in front of Lara in each fight. He really had nothing to worry about with Ishe who is a basic fighter with no "pop" in his punches. On the other hand he was mindful of Canelo's power and boxing ability. Moving more frequently and thus keeping Canelo's total output at a minimum while being careful of not being caught with any power shots. I really would have loved to see Lara stand right in front of Canelo with his hand down like he did against Ishe last night, while also being willing to trade. There's a reason he played it safe and threw less punches against Canelo, he realized he had a better boxer in front of him than he gave him credit before hand and the body shots made him aware of his power. Exactly what you said in my opinion. Everyone is saying that Lara could've easily beaten Canelo if he threw more punches. However, they don't realize that there's a reason Lara didn't throw more punches - he was aware of Canelo's power and wasn't confident opening up to potential counterpunches to get himself chin checked. I'd like to believe boxer's aren't dumb, and they're quite aware of what they can and cannot handle. In this case, I feel Lara wasn't confident his chin would hold up, so he pranced around and jabbed his way to a close decision loss.

I just watched the lara/smith fight and it conceivably possible smith won 3 rounds...i gave smith the first, then some rounds in there where the body punching and uppercuts that snapped lara' head back were enough to negate lara' headshots.. there was definately sum rounds that could have gone either way, it would just depend on your criteria and if you dont score body punches,which is BS because this is the pros not the ams.. But Lara ran for his life in that fight with canelo, i had it scored a draw originally but i could have been 7-5 either way....i watched it again and i had canelo winning 7-5...i cant score rnds for runners who are doing nothing but running:lol1:..... people that scored it 9-3 either way really DKSAB..

Canelo landed a few body shots that was it. Canelo** probably landed like 2 solid connects every other** round all the rest was BS punches, Lara even buckled Canelo** a few times. Fixed that for you.

Agree The only thig either smith or Canelo ( Minus 1 deadly uppercut )landed of signifigance were body shots its just when your a manufactured Mexican superstar Those body shots apparently win you fights.

Pretty much it would come down the the force of Canelo's blows (or partial blows) in combination with Lara doing a lot less. I thought Smith sold out more to put the fight in spots that benefited him, but while that made his offense look better it didn't make his punches any more effective. Canelo-Lara is a fight where you are finding a sliver of difference between what the two dudes did in like every round. Lara-Smith Smith put forth a solid effort but it was clear who was winning, smith tried to play the game to make Lara gas but it didn't work out to any great degree (although I think he slowed Lara a bit, it was never enough to bring Lara down to him which isn't surprising because that is not what Smith is as a fighter).

For one, Lara did a lot more moving against Canelo.

Lara spent the entire fight weary of Canelo's power and threw little more than jabs most of the time. Lara basically clowned Smith for 11 1/2 rounds and was landing power shots at will. There is a huge difference between landing power shots at will for 12 rounds and landing the occasional jab on your bicycle for all 12.

I saw canelo/Lara live and canelo looked like he had no business in there with Lara I never re watched it now smith did a better job 2 me They both clearly lost but it seemed more competitive with smith canelo was punching air and ropes all night

Canelo beat the **** out Lara, Lara ran non stop. Lara did not run from Ishe lol. Ishe landed a few body shots that was it. Ishe probably landed like 2 solid connects a round all the rest was BS punches, Lara even buckled Ishe a few times. Lmfao no, he didn't bro. wtf was u watching???

Thought Lara beat Canelo. Haven't seen this fight yet

If you dont know the answer to this or at least have a clue and have been watching boxing a while you really are naive . Truth is this sh*t was a blowout Lara beat Canelo but he looked like sh*t doing it they both came out of that fight looking bad Lara didn't school Canelo and Canelo hit nothing but air all night looked retarded in there got points for trying more although he was the one getting hit A LOT more.

lool oh ****

Other than you being an idiot I'm not sure I can help you with that.

Smith definitely put up a better fight than Canelo. I was very surprised with Smiths performance.
