Canelo doesn't need to outbox Lara to win a clear decision. His activity tonight is going to be very high. My sentiments exactly. If Canelo's done his home work he would've studied the Angulo fight Lara had with him through and through and come to the conclusion that a high punch output would be a key to victory. In addition, Canelo needs to take Lara's range away by being consistent on the inside.

I was just gonna post the same thing. Idk why people keep pointed to the fact that Canelo can't "outbox" Lara to win the decision. There are many ways to win a decision. Hell, look at a more recent example, it was obvious that Floyd was outboxing Maidana but Maidana did what he had to do to make it close and win in a lot of people's eyes' Your right about that, even Robert Garcia said this before the fight, when he was studying the Ortiz fight he said even tho Ortiz wasn't landing, his activity on the ropes and backing Floyd down at points gave the perception of the commentators and judges that he was in trouble against the ropes and he implanted it perfect with Chino. Canelo activity could play a big role with the judges.

Canelo's activity has never ever been high. And it won't be tonight. I got 50T saying he won't throw more than 600 punches. He doesn't need throw 600 to clearly outwork Lara. Lara doesn't have the highest work rate either.

It appears that Canelo is perceived to be the better boxer, their prediction being Canelo by UD, not KO. they are probably factoring in the robbery/superstar factor which ups canelo's chances of winning to almost 100% all he has to do is not get ko'd and he should win.

Lara needs to KO Alvarez. The only way Lara will win a decision is if he knocks down Alvarez five times in five different rounds. If he does that, he will win by majority decision. Other than these two scenarios, he will lose.

lol Only because Canelo can win a decision no matter how the fight looked, just kidding hopefully we dont have to worry about that tonight, May the best man win. I really think it will be a factor, but we'll see.

YeAh, it definitely is because it's hard to know what to expect. If Lara can dictate the pace and make it a pot shot fight then it could get ugly. Just remember, Floyd had to survive some barrages of Canelo to control the fight and fluster him. Can Lara do the same thing? We'll see. Anywho I don't put to much emphasis on the Floyd fight, Canelo looked like straight ass and showed little heart in the fight and if that is any sign of what he is to become then I won't be a fan for very long. You gotta have a heart or GTFOH! :) You bring up a good point. Lara isn't Floyd. He isn't nearly as good a boxer. I don't know if Landy can "fluster" Canelo. Then again, Lara has his own set of tools. He has greater power and size than Mayweather. He's also a southpaw. I'm not gonna pretend to know what these guys are going to do to nullify each other or gain the upper hand. I'm not knowledgable enough in that department. I can only focus on certain generalities, like Alvarez's tendency to take little breaks, and his somewhat questionable stamina. This is really a battle of styles, and no one really knows how it'll ultimately play out.

Neither are the "experts." lol If any of those dudes were able to consistently pick winners, they'd give up boxing journalism and focus full-time on sports betting. They be millionaires. I know man i'm just kidding this is a tough fight to predict

Problem with that is, Canelo doesn't fight like that. He'll pause and Lara will counter. This is going to be a very interesting fight. YeAh, it definitely is because it's hard to know what to expect.

Canelo can win a decision by keeping Lara in his shell while unloading on him. Like Freddy Hernandez did (not saying line he won the fight, chill.) Not saying that this is going to happen either, he doesn't need to outbox him to win a decision, he can beat him with power as volume. Problem with that is, Canelo doesn't fight like that. He'll pause and Lara will counter. This is going to be a very interesting fight.

I think this fight will look similar to Canelo/Trout, so hopefully the preceding fights provide a lot of entertainment.
