So anybody feels that Lara was somehow “robbed” in the Canelo fight are complete utter morons.
What a ridiculous emotional outburst. You haven't stated any facts. You're saying that if the majority of the media says something is true, it's true. And if anyone disagrees with this they're 'utter morons'. This is a dangerous, dangerous point of view.
That’s not what I’ve said. And you can’t quote my words either. So why lie? Is it for dramatic effect, to pretend you’ve successfully refuted something that never once occurred in reality?

The outcome of any closely fought fight can never be deemed as being a “robbery”.

For sure, people are entitled to disagree with the official outcome.

But for closely competitive bouts, they can’t pretend a “robbery” took place when it didn’t.

The only thing I can imagine from your little tantrum is that you don’t really understand what constitutes a robbery in boxing terms.

Either that, or you wrongly believe Lara absolutely dominated Canelo with consummate ease.

So what’s it to be?

Either you feel that Lara dominated Canelo or you don’t understand the meaning of the word robbery (in the context of boxing).

For the record I wouldn't say anybody who had Lara winning over Canelo is a "complete and utter moron" but I honestly don't know what it is you were looking at.

I thought Canelo won that fight quite clearly.

I never said that.

I did say that nobody can possibly believe that Lara was "robbed".

"Robberies" don't occur in close competitive bouts.

If someone genuinely believes that Lara was indeed "robbed", because they feel he dominated Canelo, then they are morons, because that simply didn't happen.

In this case, it's not simply about opinions, it's about people lacking knowledge about the sport of boxing.
