He’s undefeated in my eyes. Edged Canelo, clearly beat Williams, Hurd, and Castano. But that’s the way the cookie crumbles.

Will Erislandy Lara ever get his just due?

Man oh man, what a shame. He should be top 3 p4p atm.

Hurd, Canelo and Castano are much younger than Lara.
I bet the fights look much closer from ringside, live then they do for us on television with clear angles and replays. We can clearly see Lara winning, but its harder to tell from the judges perspective. They get caught up and swayed by the smoke and mirrors of Lara's opponents, if the opponent is a good enough fighter.

I haven’t seen this fight so can’t judge, I thought his “Loss” to Williams was disgraceful, I didn’t think he deserves anything but a loss against Canelo for the way he fought. I thought the Hurd was a draw but I don’t have any issues with him not getting the win.

What the hell happened to our sport? The sport where skills payed the bills. When it was about hit and not get hit?
Yeah what happened, right?
Lara landing only 5% of the jabs and only landing 16% of his overall punches vs Castano, getting outlanded 195:130.
Lara basically just hit air all night and got lit up by a contender.
