    So exclude the fans, media, and judges they can't be trusted but everyone else had Lara clearly winning. You want to swerve from the facts and your left with your emotions and personal preference.

    So now you'll explain the true art of boxing and how anyone who had Canelo winning is a fanboy or doesn't know how to score fights.
    "Most had Lara winnng" was me and a few Cubans lol.

    'Apparently' you are right-- everyone thought Canelo won. lol.

      If this "sport" has any integrity left in it, I'm sure we will see Lara get a few more Pay days
      No, its lara stepped up and fought thebest in the division and ran like a chicken!! Get over it canelo beat him ITS OVER!

        Exactly.....and Cotto has a mean streak in him and won't allow Lara's headlock like Canelo didn't allow it....seems like if you punk Lara he loses.....I would like to have seen Ishe Smith fight him simply because he's no nice guy (a la Trout).

          My bad guys, I forgot to feed my banana rat. It gets a little crazy if I don't feed it. I apologize!

            No they didn't, and the poster that had ginger winning were the fan-boys, and I'm one that was happy lara didn't got the nod, but there's no way ginger won 7 rounds and most of his punches caught elbows and air, the Cuban left the door open for that score, but martinez was disgraceful...

                Cotto stands no chance against Lara.
                First of all Canelo beat Lara and you're just mad because you support every black boxer over being a fan for a genuine specific reason.

                  Where are these people pulling these "most ppl believe Lara beat Canelo?"

                  Most ppl felt the fight was close, and sure one judge was bought, but the other two weren't.

                  Had Lara not ran in those middle rounds, those two judges would've given him the fight.

                  Dude only has himself to blame.

                    Wrong. Need I remind you that I like Golovkin, Danny Garcia, Naoya Inoue, and Ryota Murata. You assume poorly.

                      As for Cotto v Lara.... it be a HulvaFight!
                      Bald faced lie. No serious boxing writer or fan whose opinion I respect and whom I acknowledge as more knowledgeable about boxing than myself thinks it was a robbery.
