        Had it a draw. 7-5 or even 6-4 either way isn't a bad scorecard depending how you score fights.

          They haven't forgotten Lara, that's why BJ Saunders is seen as a good fight.

            I had it 7-5 Charlo but I could see it 6-6 or 7-5 Canelo. Very close fight in my humble opinion.

              I thought Lara edged that fight out — edged. I was a little upset at the time because I wanted Lara; but the truth is, Landy didn’t do enough to win. He was in there against the rising face of boxing and didn’t drive it home. Lara decided to ease off the gas in the late rounds, thinking he had the fight on the cards. Always a bad move (just ask Oscar). That fight was close; neither man dominated. Could’ve gone either way, and Canelo, unsurprisingly, got the nod.

The better braver fighter won and he deserved to win.
                I haven’t watched the fight since the night it went down. Your words ring true, although I had Lara up by a hair. Canelo landed some hard shots, and Lara literally ran at times.

I love Lara but he coasts too much in fights, and makes fights and rounds closer than they should be. If he was a little more active, he would be so so so good.
                Bingo.

                  That didn't help Austin Trout or GGG in the first fight.

                  The judges always give Canelo favorable cards, whether he deserves them or not.

                    This isn’t about Canelo this is about Lara. Lara always loses fights the same way.

                      The art of boxing - "to hit and not get hit".

                      Only a low brow nimrod expects boxers to just stand there and get hit.
