Lara Vs Trout Set For Mayweather Vs Canelo Undercard On September 14

Should be a good fight too.

money to be made. Siberian Rocky, over Alvarado. Lara by KO, And Martinez by KO against undefeated Timothy Bradley in a mismatch of gigantic proportions.

Mayweather wins by controversial split decison I think.

Politics will give a close fight to Mayweather. B
There's wayyy more money in the rematch

I'm betting Canelo @ plus 235 on 5dimes. $200 for $470.

Money in a snooze fest!

This guy has carefully selected all his fights so that he remains unbeaten. It's sickening as a fan to watch.

This is why MMA has gained so much on the boxing game because they control who fights who, not the fighter and ultimately the fans get the fights they want and the fighters are in and out with no one fighter becoming bigger than the sport.

He obviously ducked Pacquio but who else out there do you want to see him fight?

I would like to sit next to the judge (114-114) and watch the tape of the fight so they can show which rounds were won by Canelo. That was a joke.

i saw that, should never be permitted to judge again.

21-1 were the majority decision odds. Nice payday for those that "risked" it.

there are only 4 boxers that I want to see him fight and possibly the only 4 that could beat him.

Sergio Martinez--hasnt been the same since the Chavez fight, but if he can pull off one last great fight if he fought Mayweather at a catch weight, he can get to him

Pacquiao--has power, smarts, footwork and speed to land one good shot on Money if he gets in and doesn't get picked off by him

Amir Khan--has the speed and skill to match with him, but land one good shot on him the glass chin and its over

The new current power puncher/bodybuilder Juan Manuel Marquez, this fight won't happen anymore since Mayweather already beat him handily. The current JMM would give Mayweather more problems than in their previous one

The 64-year-old Ross' score started a whirlwind of criticism throughout the boxing world, which led to her decision Tuesday to email Nevada Athletic Commission executive director Keith Kizer, revealing that she is placing herself on indefinite leave.

"I will be taking some time off from boxing but will keep in touch," Ross said in her email.

Ross, who has been judging fights for 22 years, initially defended her scoring but has since decided that it is for the best of the sport and the commission for her to take a break.

"She feels bad the focus is on her, not Mayweather," Kizer said.

Were the odds really 21-1 on a majority decision for Mayweather? I find that unfathomable as a crooked judge can 100% of the time make that happen in a mismatch.

It was 21-1 yes. The other odd calls were 11-1 split for Floyd and 18-1 split for Canelo.

I was thinking this morning that 50K makes you a millionaire in that situation. Lots of pasta.

"But, for some reason, CJ Ross scored it 114-114. She's the same judge who scored the Timothy Bradley vs. Manny Pacquoia fight 115-113 for Bradley. It's a completely indefensible scorecard and one that needs some investigation. Boxing isn't crooked, it's the people who can alter an outcome who are the problem.

And for those conspiracy theorists out there: A majority decision paid out 21:1 odds in Las Vegas."

Cotto turns down a chance at more money to fight Canelo. After getting beaten easily by Mayweather in May 2012, I guess he figures his best chance at becoming relevant again is moving up in weight? A match with Sergio Martinez is intriguing, and if he were to beat Sergio... maybe that would mean Andre Ward or Gennady Golovkin in the latter part of 2014?

Martinez is a logical fight for him. He holds legit belts, isn't a big puncher anymore, didn't look great in his last fight, is coming off a long layoff and injury and Cotto gets a huge homefield advantage.

He will never fight Ward who is simply far too big for him. If he were to beat Martinez it could set up a huge rematch with Mayweather who would love to grab the middleweight titles.

Ward is way too much for Cotto, agreed. Even with the belts I am not sure that Floyd gives him the fight, he embarrassed him in that bout. Floyd only has 4 fights left as far as he has said. The fact that he is facing Khan next is a bit of a joke. Will be tough to sell that fight.
