Excellent write-up. Really enjoyed it.

Good article with valid points. IMO I don't think Canelos aggression was effective and he didn't win more rounds than Lara.

I do like effective aggression, but Canelo wasn't so effective. It all comes down to what you prefer I guess.

Very goo write up and I agree, I had Canelo winning simply because Lara didn't do enough. It's one thing to move, but you have to counter as well. I honestly think that Lara fought too much of a safe fight. In this game, sooner or later you must stand your ground, he didn't do that at all.

I was just watching some of the second part of the Showtime "All Access." Shields was looking at Canelo tape and said something like, "Oh, man, we're going to throw like ten punches when Canelo does that." Yeah, okay.

Yeah, that's partly the problem with scoring in boxing. Too much left to taste and interpretation. It's like giving more points for a solo home run because it was really long. That kind of system has severe drawbacks.

Great piece, truly enjoyed it from beginning to end.

He can't make Lara punch. I'm sure that's what Ronnie wanted to do but Lara didn't listen

I can see your point. The vote was definitely split.

Thanks for all the input and support everyone!
