I think the dudes a wicked Talent. I also know he beat the brakes off of the Punisher. I do think he lost to Molina & I do think that many of his die hard fans try shamelessly to sweep it under the rug.
I am pissed that golden boy is ignoring him to protect ginger. (This is painfully obvious & not up for debate). However the fight that's make able & that I want to see his him & Rosado. That fight has FOTY written all over it.
Didnt Eric Gomez say that Canelo told them he doesnt want lara, according to Dan Rafael
Fat Dan hates Golden Boy so I wouldn't be surprised if he made that up. But knowing Canelo I think that might be something he says. He would probably make up an excuse and say how his style or name wouldn't be appealing for a PPV fight. He said he wanted Martinez for his PPV debut but his team said Martinez's style was boring so they skipped out on him. LOL What a bunch of bullsh1t. This Canelo guy is full of sh1t. I can't wait until he faces someone good and he gets a straight beat down. What a fraud.
They won't fight him because he's dangerous, plain & simple. Golden boy are not ignoring him, he's their fighter. Technically this is the easiest fight for them to make. Lara won't ask for the lions share. They can get away with this in house fight rather easily. Come again please..........thanks.
If u dont bring in much money and are a risk then u usually dont get a fight with a guy like Canelo who has superstar money making potential. Its just that simple. If Lara had the same skill set and brought in real numbers the fight would have been signed already.
Canelo is 22 steping up.
Canelo is a belt holder the age doesn't matter here, Billy the kid was younger and had a target on his back, just like Canelo's now, Benitez was a Champ at 17 and fought the best of the best, Tyson, Patterson and others were Champs at 20 and fought the best after that, if the age is a handicap then he should vacate and keep fighting bums and cab drivers from Europe and Tijuana.
maybe he should rematch Molina,and beat him impressively (if he can) to open the doors for bigger fights
beating ppl up is what's closing the door for him, if they fight and he beat up Molina all 154 pounders will move on to other weights, and you know already that Decubas doesn't want to lose one of his fighters for nothing, Lara is knocking on the door just like Molina, they will fight I'm sure of it and Molina will get his A$$ handed it to him.
Of the realistic options, I'd love to see him fight Trout or Bundrage (which ever one Canelo doesn't), Molina, Rosado, or even Kirkland. Those would be great fights.
I get the feeling that the wbc claim of not supporting a unification with Trout is a cover up to something far more sinister.
Whenever you have Lara and his team not content with what's going on and the public perception as bad as it is (with even the writers joining in), it is too late. At this point, all they can do is take the criticism and hope the writers and the public STFU about it when Canelo faces Cotto later in the year. At the same time, doing what I suggested to do with Lara and either hoping he STFU about it or talking to him about STFU.
That....................or they could take of ginger's diapers & training wheels & go ahead & make the Lara fight.

Good solid logic, but it's far too late for that now. Golden boy has gone above & beyond all necessary to protect ginger from Lara & now they're gonna get screwed.

GBP have continued to handled the situation terribly...
I said it months ago... They could've avoided the amount of bad publicity they've received if they would've handled the situation similar to how Top Rank handled the Gamboa-Lopez situation (TR never wanted that fight for Lopez). If Schaefer would've said "I think a Canelo-Lara fight is a great fight that will be bigger in the future because we're in the process of raising Lara and Canelo's profile. Hopefully, they unify the titles so that fight can get the attention from the general public that it deserves", it would've given him time to continue developing Alvarez or take him in a different direction.
After this fight in September, Alvarez is on the precipice of fighting a Cotto, then a Mayweather. As long as he's fighting that level of opposition, a Lara fight becomes obsolete.
In the meantime, keep Lara content and his focus on other ventures. Lara's already fought on Showtime, the novelty has worn off, so you introduce a title shot or a fight on HBO a good purse and he'll concentrate on winning those fights. These fights against Hearns and Hernandez do nothing for him at this point.

Gbp is not ignoring him.Its hard to get a guy with no fan base,No belt
no nothinga big fightt.Why dont cotto,floyd,martinez fight him?cause he
does nothing for anyone.
so in other words you have to have a belt and a fanbase to fight big fights?
how does one get a belt and a fan base if you need a belt and a fan base to get a big fight?
How did Martinez become champion?
if GBP push Lara he will have more fans and a belt/opportunity.
I'm expecting lara to knock hernandez out easy.Berto did it one
round,Easy work.
I am too. Lara's one of the best JMW's out there and Hernandez has no quality fights against 154 opponents.
Maybe not as fast, but I expect a KO within the first 5.
IMO, does a KO of Hernandez hurt his chances of fighting better known fighters?
Also, if Canelo doesn't fight Trout.... what are the chances the WBA give him a shake?

I honestly don't care if Canelo is afraid or not. It doesn't change the fact that Lara is still young in professional fights and needs to continue building his resume. Rosado, Kirkland, Molina rematch, these are the kinds of legitimate match-ups that will launch him to the next level. Canelo will get his in due time, but Lara can't just sit around. I'm happy that he's staying busy instead of waiting on the sidelines for a big fight ala K9, so he's making the right decision imo. Hernandez isn't such a bad opponent, it's a solid stay busy fight where Lara can continue to showcase his skill and talent.
While all this stuff is going on Lara should rematch that Molina imo
A couple of days ago, I re-watched a recent interview with Lara and his manager, Luis DeCubas Jr. When asked who he would like to fight, the first guy Erislandy mentioned was Alvarez. Then DeCubas lead him and said, "Molina." Lara repeated the name. I found this rather interesting. Luis manages both fighters, and it's been said that he's the one standing in the way of the rematch. The fact that DeCubas lead Lara's answer makes me wonder if he's not trying to set up the fight down the road. I think both fighters want the rematch, but their mutual manager is waiting for the "right time."
y so u can get me banned?It was maybe u who snitched me out.
People are so soft,I cant even joke around without getting banned
or warned for nothing
I do not like Broner. And I never snitch on racist. I laugh at them. Especially anyone who thinks that I only go for certain races. I like fighters from every make & color!! You should try it. It's really refreshing. No need to get butt hurt with me, you got the wrong guy buddy!
