Comments Thread For: Erislandy Lara: De La Hoya Knows Canelo Got a Gift!

And to think Levi had Canelo winning 9. Lol he had his scorecard filled out on Friday night.



No way he won more than 5. Ppl say all Lara did was run. They focus on what he did but don't say **** about what Canelo didn't do. Which is cut off the damn ring. And he only outlanded Lara in 3 of the 12 rds.

It's amazing. Canelo could bring a lawn chair to the ring and chill.... 10-9 Canelo.

It was a great punch! That's really one of the only highlights he has from this fight. I had Lara winning the 7th, despite the cut. If it knocked him down, staggered him... the ref had to tell the judge the cut was caused by a punch a couple seconds later. But toward the end of the round, Lara was picking at the cut and stopped throwing, so the momentum was stating to shift. His corner did a bad job dealing with it.

I thought they did a great job! lol That was a bad gash, man; but the bleeding stopped within two rounds. The cut didn't bleed at all for the rest of the night. That's great work, IMO.

I think Canelo outscored Lara in 4 rounds. I could be wrong. I'm too tired to look it up. lol But total punches landed aren't the whole story. The power and effectiveness of those punches also weigh into the scoring, and that's where it gets real tricky. It's all open to interpretation.

Yeah it definatly is bro but the way ppl make out Lara to be a track star kills me. All Lara did was run but he was still tagging Canelo. And it was only 3 rds. The last rd they both landed 12 punches.

You ain't even lying bro. He got a draw on one of the score cards vs Floyd FFS.

Those were the two rounds Lara lost undoubtedly... needed that Rafael Garcia type cut work according to the judges.

I need to re-watch, but Lara was a lot more elusive than usual, if you know what I mean. lol There was one point late in the fight where one of my guests said, "He ran right there!" I had to agree. But those moments were very few.

He and Trout both lost when they fought each other. It's just ridiculous now, man. After I watch the Rigo fight this Saturday, I'm taking a break from watching boxing.

He ran in the mid rds, 5-8 maybe 9 and then stopped. What he did after was hit and move.

Undoubtedly, Canelo often seems to have one judge strangely biased towards him. Hmmm.... lol

And that's the thing that gets me and many others. Levi Martinez's card was that of a man who filled out his score arbitrarily. Literally, it's like he made his scorecard prior to watching tthe fight. I understand he's being investigated by the NSAC. Shit, man, that was a close fight. A impartial judge might've been what Lara needed to get over the hump.

You're not gonna miss out on much tbh. Oh wait, you gotta be sure to tune into my boy Danny Garcia vs Rodrigo Salalaka August 9th bro. Stellar match up.
