    Who would even want to see this fight again? Lara vs Andrade needs to happen ASAP.

      Marquez had to knockout Pacquiao to get a W.Lara would have to knockout Canelo to get a W he can't win a decision

        those cards were bonk IIRC, but the figh twas close, and i have no isues with somebody given the decision to canelo. body shots count. you score the effect of the punches round by round. you can easily make the argument thet canelo was the more effective pncher in the balance of the rounds. lara probably couldn have won that fight, but i don't think he has the mentality to do it.

        he's just not a professional boxer. he boxes like he's in an amateur fight. get ahead with points and coast. it doesn't work at the very top level, and his performances against angulo, vanes, molina, and canelo all underline that.

          How can he get robbed again when he wasn't robbed in the first fight? Lara ran the whole fight. Canelo landed just as many and much harder punches and chased him all fight. Without Canelo there would have been no fight, just a track race.There have been lots of polls done on who won the fight and Canelo always wins the polls with boxing fans and boxing writers.Do another poll if you don't believe it. Only bias Lara fans like you think he won. Most of the boxing world thinks the right guy won the fight. Canelo has improved a lot since then and Lara has just gotten older. If Canelo fought Lara again I think he would knock Lara out

            The purpose of lateral movement is not just to avoid getting hit, its to safely create offense which Lara did not do clearly for 12rds. Lara gave up being the ring general a lot more in the fight than Canelo did. I had the fight a draw after watching it 3x's, Id expect the same result or a draw everytime they fought. Lara fans need to face reality that Canelo is just a lil bit better.

              6-6 or 7-5 either way. No robbery.

                Lara fans all 5 of them need to just get over it. Lara could of won if he let his hands go and stood his ground and fought in spots. But if he did that he would of left himself open to getting countered and dropped by Canelo. So the P@ssy ran and ran and deserved what he got. They landed virtually the same amount of punches. But one guy was going backwards landed weak slapping jabs while the other was going forward landing all the meaningful power punches. Judges favored the man going forward actually trying to fight over the scared beyotch running from a fight. Not a robbery.

                  I just actually watched this fight back, it's not quite as bad as i remember but would be in no hurry to see it again.

                  I still think it was fairly close and could have gone either way but i also still feel they would have found a way to give Canelo the decision somehow even if it wasn't as close.

                    Lara is not the same "Erislandy" & unfortunately for the older now slower Lara it's not the same "Canelo" either. Alvarez would put Lara to sleep in a rematch.

                      Can't believe people are buying this crap from Decubas and Lara who have become scam artists - mention Canelo and Golovkin's name, then fight Zaveck-level opponents. People need to start demanding that he fights Andrade, Williams, Charlo brothers. Anyone else is unacceptable. Canelo would rather rematch Kirkland than go through chasing a marathon runner all night again.
