    If you agree that Molina beat him then how can you call him a lower quality fighter? He won the fight.

    By definition he can't be "lower" as a fighter than a guy he beat fair and square.

      molina/canelo thats a toss up for me
      eah, I think you are the only one that is seeing that opening, GBP doesn't agree with you, they don't want Canelo in the same zip code with Lara.

        There are numerous instances where the more talented and skilled fighter loses to or struggles with an awkward, rugged opponent. Nobody looks good against Carlos Molina.

Molina beat his a$$.

          Also a certain fellar name Gabriel Rosado called him out just yesterday, soooooooooooo he isn't exactly out of options now is he?? Yeah lets keep it real, thanks.
          Nothing but the truth spoken here.....love to see Lara Vs Canelo but I totally agree that Molina deserves it more than anybody in the 154 lbs (even though his fighting style is not that fan friendly) I would say Mlina and Lara are definetly the most deserving.

            Douglas beat Tyson. Who was better? A superior fighter can lose to a good opponent if the circumstances are right.

              Its 100% clear Lara took Molina lightly and was not well prepared and thats his own fault, but watch him against Williams and you see the difference. Make a rematch and Lara wins clearly. But they still wont make Lara vs. Canelo. They want Canelo as the new cash cow of boxing, the new DLH. The sad thing about boxing is, its all about marketibillity. Boxing today is more show-Event than sport.
