    Honestly, Lara impresses me. The dude is still at a high level overall. People went nuts about Pacquiao's age and almost overlooking Lara here. I'm curious to see how long he can take this, but will be always rooting for him just based on his age, lol.
    lara hasnt fought a top 10 ranked opponent(ring) in almost 6 years now. pac was fighting much better competition even now against barrios who is pretty terrible but still much better than any lara opponent in recent times

      There's a reason for it, you know why.

        Badou Jack fighting Makabu and then Mikaelian twice in his last three fights is pretty impressive.

        It's too bad the WBC cost him two years by dangling the silly bridgerweight belt in front of him, promising him a shot at it, stripping his cruiserweight belt, failing to deliver the bridgerweight shot, then giving the cruiserweight belt back.
