Before I hear anything about the running away comments. I am not one of those people who only love to see hands fly. I enjoy watching technical boxing, hit and not get hit. However, Lara wasn't hitting at all during those moments. It wasn't as if he was like floyd, avoiding contact but landing little pot shots inbetween. Lara literally did nothing but move around and then hug and grapple.
This isn't MMA. I can't score in your favor if your going to miss a punch and then hug and lean into the guy. You have to throw punches, not hard punches all the time but accurate shots at least.
I just couldn't give it to Lara. He just wasn't doing enough.
It's all about activity my friend. Lara looked amazing those first three rounds. So his stats are meaningless. He lands a ****load early, misses a few later on and hardly throws at that. Of course his stats will look amazing.
Judges saw it right. I almost had it a draw. In the 8th it was tied up, then Lara started doing nothing. No activity.
I don't think Paul can beat Martinez though. He makes a fatal mistake with his style. He won't ever beat Martinez or anyone with that punch until he fixes that mistake.

Like I said you didn't see the punch stats
what the shyt does punch stats even mean? you didn't even see that until after the fight. Do you think compubox has a moniter in the judges face while they judge?

You are a disgrace to boxing...Don't ever score a fight again. I bet you had Sturm losing to De La Hoya and Casa beating Santa Cruz.
I'm done with this thread.
Neither. But thanks for your imput. Good bye.

too bad he did.
in a rematch Lara may realize that he needs to WIN a fight, rather than just be in it.
this doesn't mean knockout, this means have the ring generalship and aggression to win that fight. even if you fight defensively you need to show that your in it to win not just going through the motions.
