8CountNews sat down with boxing trainer Ronnie Shields and got his thoughts on the controversial loss that his fighter Erislandy Lara suffered Vs. Canelo Alvarez. 8CN Co Founder (Brad Cooney) had Lara winning the fight by 3 rounds. Many others had it wider for Lara, yet Alvarez came out with the win.
Shields spoke in depth about the decision, and touched on possible options going forward. Former world champ Ishe Smith’s name came up as a possible next opponent, as well as Alfredo Angullo.
Erislandy despite the loss earned over a mllion bucks for this fight, and that’s a far cry from the days he came ashore in America from Cuba on a raft. 8CN wishes the champ many more great fights going forward. LISTEN to what Ronnie Shields had say BELOW
