    True but he couldnt handle Molina's pressure and the funny thing about that is Molina was coming off a 2 year lay-off.

      Lara's good but he's not a monster like some hype him up to be. Ask Molina.
      Well Molina has pulled a lot of punk cards, including your boy Alvarado, dude has been robbed more than anyone I can think of(Campillo comes to mind though). Dude is just tough to fight, throwback fighter, fights anyone.

      I think Lara is a world beater, and the best JMW. Molina has his card stylistically though, but that fight was a bit ago I wouldn't mind a rematch of that tbh.

      I'm a huge fan of Molina, but I think Lara is probably the best, I think Canelo is better than most give him credit for though and I'm a halfway fan.

        Don't be a damn idiot with disproven triangle theories! Styles make fights and it comes down to a number of variables in the ring. Many fighters have lost to lessor pressure fighters and have beaten greater pressure fighters.

          You can't compare a really smart boxer like Molina to Canelo,

          Like you can't compare P-Will with Canelo.

          All very different styles.

            He was comparing pressure. The Punisher is the best pressure fighter out of the 3. I didn't compare the Punisher to Canelo anyway. Nor Molina to Canelo either.

              Lara schools him BIG TIME..

              Too skillful, too fast, and too good of defense for Canelo who struggled for 3 rounds with Gomez.

              I hope this fight gets made.

                I hear ya. Lara's a bad dude. But I could see Trout giving him issues.

                He beats K9, Vanes and Rosado. The Canelo fight is very interesting.

                  Im not talking about triangle theories. Certain fighters have problems with pressure fighters, Lara is one of them. You understand now?

                    Molina is a smarter pressure fighter then. He picks his spots better. P-Will is non stop and opens himself up to counters. Ala The Lara fight and the beginning of the Cintron fight.

                    Paul kept getting caught while Molina didn't, but was pressuring.

                      Exactly! It shows a guys ignorance when he says this guy will win cause he hits harder or that guy will win cause he is bigger, or this guy will win cause he is a better boxer. Styles and who wants it the most change the landscape.
