Comments Thread For: Erislandy Lara Open Letter To Fans, Media and HBO

[Rome-By-Ko]

Lara should get a immediate title shot and that loss changed to a DQ.

He should but with Alvarez Chavez Jr and K-9 as the Champs we all know that won't be happening..

It's great to know that all the support for Erislandy got back to him loud and clear. His thank you letter is a nice gesture; he showed a lot of class in its wording. I'm also happy to know that the nasty injury Lara suffered is healed. I hope he goes far in the pros!

Class act, a real class act!!

[brick wall]

lara has some good advisers...that's a nice move.

[Porter's Dad]

At the end of the day, Lara and all the fans know who won. He can take solace in that.

That's what I've been thinking. As disgusting as the decision was, everyone knows who won. It's not like Lara's stock has dropped. If anything, people have taken to him more.

Saying that, it shouldn't even have to come to this stage.

dude's a class act, he made me a fan with his performance and reaction to this whole robbery. hopefully he gets the pwill or molina rematch, or another top lmw contender.

played just about perfectly by lara and his team


i like the kid
he showed huge balls fighting with that hematoma
and the hbo guys BARELY MENTIONED it // him


obvioulsy williams is the money maker and the major player in the fight, but the really dropped the ball in the broadcast in terms of telling the stories of both fighters

I don't know why people haven't discussed that more the cutman did a phenominal job it looked like it was about to get Vargas/Rahman status for a minute there, but he managed it very well throughout the fight.

[Spray_resistant]

He put on a good, show I hope HBO or some network recognizes and give him a meaningful fight soon.

[Devils Advocate]

Lara should forget about Williams. Lara vs Molina is the fight that needs to happen again and winner there should get a title shot.

Great letter
