    This was horrible for boxing

    Okay I admit I was rooting for Lara and was disappointed he moved so much but in my opinion anyone who's not a blind Canelo fan are going to see a robbery or a close fight that normally would need a rematch. It does not matter how ugly it is and how much a guy runs it just should not win you rounds as even in the judges handbook it clearly states coming forward does not count as effective aggression.

    In the end I'm dissapointed in both fighters and Canelo is probably going to be happy with this win since he came forward and landed shots on Lara's elbows. It was ugly as **** but Lara won it in a boring way that makes me not even be a fan of him anymore. Either way this all my opinion but this "superstar" Canelo just won a fight by landing less than 20 headshots lol it was a bad night for boxing.

    I still think we need a rematch I mean Dawson Hopkins 2 we knew would be boring but it was needed at the time. **** though I'm pissed Lara didn't try to make it more decisive the fight could of gotten very exciting.

    Bradley Pacquiao got a rematch so thisbshould. Everyone hating on Lara would be the same ones **** riding if they heard his name at the end. He fought a good fight but should have pressed the action more to impress the judges and "fans"

            I agree the way lara ran was appalling. I thought I was watching the 50 yard dash or something.

              It certainly doesn't need a rematch!

              Lara should look at Andrade, get a fight with him this year and If Canelo can get a mega PPV event with Cotto maybe the rematch can happen in 2015...
              BUT lets be honest nobody wants the rematch, Lara stunk the place out and he was disrespectful the entire event.

                    Canelo won't give him a rematch. There would be few people willing to shell out the money for it. With the top fighters only fighting twice a year, I'd rather see him fight someone else.
