Lara is the only guy available that has the boxing IQ to give Floyd problems. Lara has the REACH (Lara will actually have the reach advantage vs Floyd), the speed, and the incredible technical skills to match Floyd. He has the timing, he's hard to hit, he's a great counter-puncher, and he's a great athlete... He's everything that Floyd is but a southpaw. Khan is a joke of an opponent at this point, and Thurman won't be able to outbox Floyd... If Floyd could avoid Manny's power, he'll avoid Thurman's... Most importantly, Floyd has a bigger reach and speed advantage vs Thurman.... Floyd might only slightly edge out Lara in speed. It will be a close chess match.. Lara is a real 154lb as well, Floyd won't be able to impose his physicality on Lara.
It is freaking hilarious to see floyd fans care about excitement for the fans now. They are now concerned about what the casual fan thinks, but just two days ago and everyday before that, "the casual fan dksab", "real fans respect the sweet science", "boxing is about hit and not get hit".
So, here we have the ultimate pure boxers dream fight. 2 154 pound pure boxers, same manager, so why is this fight not good enough? Don't gimme that crap about how it wouldn't sell. Doesn't need to sell. Floyd just did over 4 mil, the money isn't a prerequisite as he has made more than enough for 50 lifetimes. All of the supposed "real" boxing fans should be demanding this matchup between to masters of the sweet science.
But suddenlty, "pure boxing will put everyone to sleep". All of you boxing "is about hit and not get hit" dudes, are a pure joke. This is as pure a boxing match as you're going to see, the chess match you've all been talking about for years on this site.
Now, you don't want it. :thinking:

Right, Mayweather will have to work to keep up on points, because Lara has a great defense and is very slick in his own right...There is no other black fighter besides Lara with comparable skills and physical attributes to bother Floyd
Lara doesn't have a great defense, nor is he "very" slick.
at first, i was like NOOOOOOOOO ****IN WAAAAAAAAY....... SNOOZE FEST.
but to think about it... maybe we'll see an aggressive mayweather O: ..
hmm one can dream

Make it happen! I need this whenever my bouts of insomnia kick in. Runner vs Runner. Give Floyd a $50 million guarantee for this fight. He deserves it.
I have some bad news for you. ALL of Floyd's possible matchups will be boring(besides maybe GGG)
The choice is literally, do you want to be bored by a guy that might outpoint Floyd(Lara) or bored by a guy that will never outland Floyd(everyone else)... that's the reality of the situation, even if everyone wants to fantasy about the "success" that Khan/Thurman/Brook might have...

Defensively Lara Could probably hold his own with Floyd but offense really floyd is on a different level ,many more tools .Laura is a bit one dimentional and relies too much on his left hand only lara would only land a few punches a round at best

Those real fans ain't gonna pay for Floyd's pay check. Whether you like it or not, boxing is a business and a it certainly is a dream for the niche market as 90% of boxing fans casual or hardcore will have preferences over this potential snoozefest.
Wow. True definition of a 50/50 fight.
I said it was 50/50. Stop lying dude. Damn. I picked Lara to win but so did a lot of others. And Floyd shut Canelo out so what's your point?
You said before the Canelo fight that Lara was going to school him.
I don't think you should be telling anyone to not make assumptions.
You, one of the purist boxing fans, should be ecstatic over Floyd vs Lara.
Canelo fight could have gone either way, GGG destroys him and Floyd schools him. Stop making assumptions.

So Lara, is good enough to expose Canelo and GGG, but not good enough to get a Floyd fight? lmao. foh. You're a flip flopper.
Same division, same manager, so whats the problem? Lara won't demand an outrageous amount of money.
Canelo fight could have gone either way, GGG destroys him and Floyd schools him. Stop making assumptions.
Because I don't think you can beat Floyd by throwing one lunch at a time.
You dudes don't get it. We want chess matches between 2 grandmasters. Not a grandmaster and a amatuer. That's boring because it's not competitive.

Floyd doesn't fire off with combinations. He has the inability to throw more than one punch at a time. What's your point?

Oh look another boxing hipster who thinks he's all cool because he follows a bunch of fringe non mainstream guys that casuals don't know about.
Lara isn't that good, and he lost to Canelo, period. There was no robbery there, that was an extremely close fight that could have gone either way, he drew to Molina ffs.
He's one dimensional and does the same thing over and over again, doesn't have a right hand, his defence is turd, his chin is questionable, he has no inside game whatsoever, he's not a good counter puncher.
Mayweather would walk him down and beat him easily.
Actually I'm not wasting my time.

A clinic of picking apart a one dimensional fighter with a lazy jab, an inability to throw more than a 3 punch combination, no body attack and one who can't transition from defense to offense. Floyd has beaten fighters with more power and more speed than Lara already. That's irrelevant.
Again, I understand what people are thinking, but Lara isn't the fighter we want him to be. Look deeper than just physical attributes and "slick southpaw style".
