      Well this is going to be rather pointless seeing as most people don't really know the definition of a robbery.

        Anybody watch Lopez vs Casteneda? The crowd was booing Lopez and applauding Casteneda after that robbery.

          I scored the Lara/Canelo fight 7-5 for Lara.
          Lara/Alvarez was too close to be a robbery. I get that one judge was horrible, but the fight itself could have gone either way.

            Some people thought it was close, some people thought it was a robbery.

            What was your scorecard for that fight?

              This. And there wasn't even any outrageous decisions. There was no Lara Williams or PAC Bradley 2

                Should be 7-5 either way. No wider.

                If I recall, more people scored it for Alvarez than Lara. Hard to make a case for Lara being robbed when the majority didn't even think he won. With Herrera/Garcia, a huge majority thought Herrera won, that's why it's a robbery. That's not true of Alvarez/Lara.

                  Did you have it 7-5 for Canelo, or 7-5 for Lara?

                      I don't have a score. There were so many close rounds that could have gone either way that I didn't score the last couple rounds. I think I had it even going into the 11th. Either guy could have taken both the last rounds clearly and it wouldn't change that either guy had a case for winning.
