Boxing Media Poll Results For Canelo Vs. Lara Are In.

Lara knew what he had to do to get a win but he wasn't willing to do it.
He should fire his whole corner if they thought that strategy was a way to victory.
Those scores that it was a close fight but Canelo deserved the victory.
All 10 of Lara's fans were crying robbery before the fight even started so its not surprising to see them crying now. in a few months many of them will forget who Lara is, just like Trout.

Oh, it definitely would be. Lara, like all spoilers, won't learn a fucking thing from that loss. He's already convinced himself that he won, FFS. Ontop of that, all 18 of his fans keep tweeting him about how he was "robbed." That's only going to further cement the idea in his brain that he actually won the fight, even though the record books will always read 'L.'

Spoilers are notorious for that. You talk a lot of shit, you get the fight signed, you train really hard like you're actually going to fight, and then you get there and jab, run, and clinch for 36 minutes. You do everything you can to keep the fight close so that when you lose the decision you'll have something to bitch about publicly, but you never actually try to win the fight dominantly.


That would be too risky. You might get KTFO'd trying to do something like that. Better to play it safe, win a few rounds, run around like a twat, and cry about the "injustice" at the post fight presser. You save more face that way because fans of this sport are, by and large, ******ed. So if you keep it close enough they'll swear you got robbed and still claim you're undefeated.

Better than that being KTFO'd and losing more support.

I agree with this post 184%, great post.

I had Lara, winning by a round or two. I just feel like Canelo was majorly out skilled in this fight. He was constantly applying the pressure however. I didn't feel there wereany swing rounds, so I think that is why I was so disappointed with the judges. I think there should be a rematch because the fight was close enough to demand one. I always give Canelo credit for fighting any and everyone. I really respect his mentality in that aspect. Of people feel that maifana deserved a rematch, I think Lara deserves one as well.
