    Some funny comments up in here. Lara is getting ducked from everyone in the division, we all know this. Molina this, Molina that. Just because Molina wasn't close doesn't mean jack. Molina is boring as all hell and I for one would never want to see him fight again. Lara on the other hand is a decent watch and like it or not beat Molina. He deserves the fight more than Molina, Kirkland, Trout, or at the time PWilly.
    Now usually I do not disagree with what you say. But why does Lara deserve the fight over the Punisher?? Is it because Lara beat Paul in the eyes of most??

    Because that would make sense. But then how can you sit there & criticize Molina?? Who in his own right, in the eyes of most, owns the W over Lara.

    Kirkland, Molina, Lara, Punisher, all were deserving of a fight against ginger. Moreso than Cintron, Mosley, lightweight Cotto, Hatton & the countless other small or shot fighters given their chance. But don't single out the deserving fighters & say 1 deserves it more, when he himself was the receiver of a gift.

      Lara deserved the fight more than Paul because he beat Paul, and beat him pretty handily in that fight. The reason why I criticize Molina is because the way he fights. The guy is cheap and dirty, the Mexican-American version of Bernard Hopkins but arguably more boring. Out of the bunch Lara is the most deserving and on some levels the more exciting fighter because he is the complete package(skills, smarts, fundamentals, power).

      I liked the Williams fight, a lot and I like the Kirkland fight. Style wise both them guys could trouble Canelo(especially Williams), but in my eyes it's Lara that can really *** that boy up. I think Canelo would get knocked out if he fought Lara or at least cut up bad. As for Molina, I can't stand the guy and unless he drops the bs tactics I don't want to watch him fight.

        Dudes making out Lara like some world beater. He clearly lost to Molina. Funny as it's sounds I think Canelo beats kirland and Lara. Those dudes arent proven just as Canelo.

            You could have just said that you don't like Molina & chose to ignore the general opinion that he beat Lara. However you chose not to ignore the general opinion that Lara beat Paul. Because you like Lara more.

                    Not sure if he deserves a fight with Canelo or not. But, at the very least he deserves to be an option by his own damn promoter.

                      Kirkland was offered the fight before Williams but turned it down because he won't be ready to fight until October.

                      if he rushes it to fight Alvarez then it's a lose lose situation for Alvarez. if he beats Kirkland, he beat a guy who wasn't 100% and if he loses he lost to a guy who wasn't 100%.
