Lara-Smith RBR discussion

Lara makes floyd look like JCC Sr. This guy ****ing sucks and always stinks out the place.

I know man. People are so quick to laud the skill of these back-pedalling fighters, when real skill is holding your ground, slipping shots, and countering. Retreating, clinching, and pot-shotting isn't quite the same thing. I know Lara's style is embedded in him at this point, but damn! He had an opponent that he could show off on and still he fought like he always does. If you can't let it all go against someone like Ishe Smith, then I give up.

I wasn't impressed with Lara tbh. Would it kill him to counter-punch on the inside? I hate how he was allowing Ishe to throw a barrage of punches without making him pay. A fighter with his speed/accuracy should have Ishe afraid to let combinations go. Instead he just shells up and absorbs the shots. I'd rather him clinch then to let that happen. Why the **** doesn't anyone tell him to cut that **** out? I know man.

Lara pitched a shutout He's has fought nothing but champions in the 154 division. Molina,Angulo,Trout,PWill, Vanes and Canelo. Solid resume and has fought no smaller former 140-147lbs ballooning up in weight for a payday. Hopefully he lands a huge fight on a PPV undercard.

i don't care how boring lara is. i'm just glad he beat ishe. ishe talks so much **** for an journeyman fighter. was given a title shot simply because he his floyd's friend. did nothing to earn it. hopefully this is the last we see of him.

Time to join Rigo on Univision. Canelo should have accepted the belt so Lara had NOTHING left. He will roam around in small networks just because he has a paper title. Cuban boxing is disgusting.

lara should have ko him

I just made some mullah of some Lara fan boys Im sorry to say :D Ishe has never even been down in a long ass career i knew hed end up close to crying,but the dude doesn't buckle good job on finishing up Ishe me likey.

Lara gave him that work. I'd like to see Lara-Kirkland, nice contrast of styles and I think it'd be very exciting.

Remind me never to watch a lara fight again. Damn.

"I want to get some money!" Shhh Lara I want Pacquiao vs Floyd keep making people look stupid on your Lane dont give Floyd no fking ideas. It can't be helped. Every top fighter in the welterweight and junior middleweight division want a piece of the Floyd sweepstakes. Fighting Floyd = $$$$$ and recognition.

easy fight

Judges got it right. Scorecards sounded believable too.

Good win for Lara, he did what he was suppose to do really against a guy who was trying to make the fight difficult and really put the fight in an area he could win. Lara however being the better man just did pretty much when he wanted when there was time and space which was most of the fight. Wasn't a bad performance but was hoping to see something a bit extra from Lara.

I hope Ishe dont cry I feel bad enough for the dude as it is looking like... Like everyone said two different classes of fighter in there

Bogus cards incoming.

119-109 Lara, maybe 120-108 Smith got schooled.

He should move up. He is 170, come on yea he should move up. Canelo weighs 170-171 for his fights and all you hear is crying from the posters on NSB but lara weighs 170 nobody says sh1t. Typical NSB. :ugh:
