Comments Thread For: Roach Feels Robbed: I Thought We Outscored Canelo!

Puerto Rico got the Mexican Beatdown.

What worries is that the margins the judges had it by clearly shows they weren't watching the fight and it was a foregone conclusion that canelo wins. Meaning that anyone hoping to get a victory over Canelo at Vegas not named Mayweather will have to knock him out...twice smh lol

Sh it even Floyd could have lost. One judge gave it to Canelo didn't it? I'm sure they would have given it to Canelo if Floyd didn't win every round. Had the fight had been even somewhat close they would have given it to Canelo. Since it was a wash they let Floyd win, otherwise it would have been so blatant that it would have triggered a federal investigation

I'm certain the Nevada commission is motivated by keeping the money flowing. So keep there future money Makers winning and thus coming back. They were not going to do cotto any favors because he generally fights in New York.

Anyone who thinks Cotto won either needs theirs eyes checked or needs to sign up for a boxing 101 course. Canelo did more damage, landed crisper shots and landed a higher % in power punches and overall punches. Cotto was on his bicycle all night, which is the only reason he did get knocked out. How did Cotto win that someone please enlighten me?

Funny how when floyd uses footwork and moves around all night it's "running" but when anyone else does it it's "effective boxing and movement" lol hilarious. Go watch floyd/Canelo and Cotto/Canelo again and floyd actually stands his ground more against Canelo.

Cotto lost and his last 3 fights before it were just as we all suspected, a mirage.

Canelo barely landed a punch for the first half of the fight and ate jabs all night long. I will admit I was wanting cotto to win from the opening bell, so I don't know if it's all in my head. But I thought cotto scored the majority of punches and did enough to win. I was dissapointed in canelos performance as it was only the second time I had ever seen him fight. All the hype about Alvarez over the years I expected a superstar. But he could barely land a punch till late in the fight. But he does seem to posses good power and some skills.

At this point I am wondering if Cotto's decision not to pay the WBC their $300,000 sanctioning fee was because he was informed that the fight's outcome was already determined, and that nothing he (Cotto) did short of a KO would result in his being declared the winner.

yeah, Floyd dominated every round and somehow Canelo still got it close lol

[MrClutch85]

Even fight I scored it 6-6 a Draw

[nielon]

Canelo has a new fan, His defense skills, head and upper body movement was impressive.....Cotto performed very well but the WRONG GAME PLAN.... The fight was close like and a few rounds could be scored for either... I at the end I had Canelo winning by 1 round....Scorecards were definitely INFLUENCED by MONEY!!!!

[Spoon23]

I had Alvarez winning by one point but realistically, anything up to 2 or 3 points either way would have been acceptable. The margins of 6, 8 and 10 points are unfortunately indicative of the rampant corruption that exists within boxing.

Only in Vegas baby!

[Spoon23]

2 judges gave Canelo round 1?

Insane. Just insane.

Now you know judges in Vegas are frauds especially to hometown boxers who brings in money to their city. They swing their votes to who keeps their pockets full.

In this case Canelo is GBPs only real superstar. They want to make sure he won.
