Yes, of course. Surprised?

That it was that judge? Yeah. I figured it would be one of the other two.

I never took a bet since this fight -- but I figured out that Canelo (and Oscar) cannot afford such a significant drawback at this stage. And they didn't.

A little beautiful gift to all them warriors out there .



Numbers dont lie that clown only Landed 15 power shots to Laras head to 52 by Lara the warrior way is by robbery. No honor no glory

A 10 punch difference overall. Fucking whoop-de-do!!!!

lara did not even win 4 rounds. lara was like trying to catch a greased chicken in a parking lot. when canelo got close it looked like lara was on a turbo charged pogo stick. lara did not need any sparring he only trained to run away really a disgrace. no way did he even throw 97 punches or land them. Hopefully seen the last of lara and canelo better get more aggressive also. the judge that gave the 117-110 was close. the judge is not a disgrace to boxing lara is the disgrace

Lara needed to take that belt away from Canelo but he fought as if he was defending his belt from a challenger that can ****.
Not the way for the challenger to become Champion.
IMHO the Canelo W was justified.

Helloooo! It was a NON TITLE FIGHT! In other words NO TITLES WERE ON THE LINE!

Just like watching an ESPN Friday night fight! Please no more PPV from these Guys! 115-113 Lara BUT....Canelo deserve it!

There's no doubt this was a very close fight & some had it a small margin for Lara & others had it the same way for Canelo. That's not the problem, the problem is that in 3 of Canelos last 4 fights(Trout, Mayweather & now Lara) there's always a judge that see's what NO ONE ELSE SAW in Canelo's favor. Against Trout it was a very close fight yet Stanley Christoloudou had it 118-108(10 rounds to 2) for Canelo, Mayweather totally out boxed Canelo & CLEARLY won EVERY ROUND yet judge C.J. Ross had it 114-114(6 rounds a piece!) she retired after that(I guess to avoid an investigation) & this fight against Lara was also very close yet judge Levi Martinez had 117-111(9rounds to 3)for Canelo. It's like in fights of this magnitude someone is making sure that at least one judge REALLY FAVORS Canelo NO MATTER WHAT THE FIGHT IS LIKE! Very very shady..

A message from Fidel Castro to Erislandy Lara, DannYankee09, damit305, kozone, Respect Power, Cubanborn87, JSFD26, garfios, Bend Over, Cu****uyNYC and the rest of you b**ches that have disrespected Mexican boxing and Mexican culture. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Viva Fidel!!!!!!!

Decisions like last nights followed up with comments like this douches is a big reason for racism amongst our sports fans. Cubans are going to be sore against Mexicans and Mexicans will be too prideful in their "hero" to admit what really happened even though they know deep inside that Canelo hands down got the "paid off judges" decision. Cong**** to Lara for not going outside of the ring and stomping on a judges head.

Lara was the champ and it was a non title fight because fat boy Cannoli wanted a catch weight. You fkn know it all's need to choke on the d!cks you are sucking. Stop talking out of biased and know wtf you are talking about.
