Comments Thread For: Lara: Canelo - Bigger Robbery Than Paul Williams Loss

[boxinggod101]

Lara got robbed. Wasnt worst than Williams robbery but Lara won that one. Canelo was missing big time. Great body shot by Canelo but Lara's straight left were touching everytime he was throwing it. I think yesterday decision was bad. Not the biggest robbery but still a very bad decision...

Can't believe this guy is whining so much. It was a close Canelo win, get over it.

What a ****** way to fight, Lara gave it away

are these stats people are posting the total punch stats or power punches? because i can't imagien lara having thrown or landed more power shots than alvarez

I read that Lara landed 107 to Canelos 97 overall. Lara threw less but landed 10 more shots overall. I think Canelo outlanded him in power shots and Lara out landed him in jabs. I'm sure the details were up on ESPN. Lara ain't doing himself any favors.

Lara is going to complain and complain, but he only has himself to blame here. On PPV fight against one of the biggest boxing superstars he fought like an amateur. Ran, and ran and gave away too many rounds. I doubt show time is going to want to give him another big tv spot, (kind of like Hbo didn't want Rigo). Canelo will move on to a blockbuster fight with Cotto, and Lara will be left out of the spotlight.

thats boxing man, no ufc or wrestling. Of course you cant appreciate footwork and speed because mexicans dont lnow what this is. Is not possible for sny knowledge of boxing oerson not recognize defense, footwork, speed, movement, precise punches as part of good boxing. Gb and canelo can buy the judges or manipulste the results, but for sure they cant win this fight ever

The numbers don’t lie. Canelo was beaten last night for the 2nd time in his career. He’s an overrated GBP fighter who got a gift last night from the paid off judges.

Again you fail to understand that this is professional boxing and not the amateurs. Mexican fighters understand this very well which is why they tend to go out there and entertain. They fight fan and TV friendly. Cuban fighters and their nationalistic fans fail to understand this. I think they're more content with complaining about being robbed and not getting respect.

The stakes were higher thats all he wont the williams fight clearly.

no robbery no way no how ,lara lost a fight where he stopped throwing and began running even more than he was early on, judges do not like that shiat, the more damaging punches were OBVIOUSLY landed by Canelo ,the action was pressed by Canelo and those body shots did enough to slow the craybaby down the stretch.
Lara stinks the joint out and isnt even very effective at that single occassional wimpy shots arent going to work .
Good dec. No re-match warranted and besides who'd even wants to see Lara's gay ass run for 12 rounds again???? no thank you.

The only fools call robbery are the Floydtards you can't win a fight running all day throwing jabs than they go to punch stats cause Lara landed 10 punches more. Castillo landed 100 punches more than Floyd but these Floydtards still claim he won these people are the joke of boxing
