Mauricio Herrera is a damn good fighter. It's a shame he was robbed of a big victory against Danny Garcia back in March.

I see a fight very similar to Canelo v. Trout with a controversial decision for Canelo.

Juanma really needs to retire. Taking all this punishment is not worth it.

This

I think Lara "wins" but Canelo gets the decision. I thought Trout clearly beat Canelo (8-4 on my card) and the judges had it completely one sided in favor of Canelo.

What's interesting is the Golden Boy fighter is Canelo and the Haymon fighter is Lara. Interesting....because both Golden Boy and Haymon have had some really iffy decisions go in favor of their fighters in recent memory.

I'm glad this fight is taking place though...this is one of those fights that normally never gets made in todays era. We're truly getting the best vs the best at 154. Canelo went against the wishes of DLH and took this fight even though it's dangerous.

These dudes are hitting each other hard. The microphones at ringside are popping.

Mares is cut bad, but he's battling.

Should've known Mares would turn into a snoozer when he teamed up with Virgil Hunter.

Ochoa looks like a female Nick Cage.

Just getting home from work in time for the main event. I haven't really enjoyed a Canelo fight since Josesito Lopez.

This fight has a chance of being a technical snoozefest, but I'm hoping for more toe-to-toe.
