Comments Thread For: Angulo vs. Lara To Co-Headline Maidana-Lopez Card

Not necessarily. Silva was doing most of his work on the ropes. Lara can be a busy guy too. Look vs Williams and Hernandez.

I like Angulo man but he has left me concerned and its a shame cause he makes for a lot of exciting fights.

Man, he was eating some major shots against Silva. It wouldn't have seemed so bad to me, except that it was becoming painfully clear that Alfredo will never be a top fighter. To watch this guy who was once considered a serious challenger get lit up like that was sad.

[any craic lad?]

Damn could be a bad match up for Perro.Hopefully he pulls it off but i think the Kirkland fight and that detention spell has taken alot out off him.

I wonder what GBP's intentions are here. Do they think Lara is vulnerable vs pressure fighters or are they trying to build up Lara by him defeating Angulo? GBP is real shady and there's always a purpose when they do things. Like the 140lb tourney. It hit me like they're trying to protect someone but I can't get my finger on it just yet.

It's a good question. I have to go by my own impression of Lara's chances. I think they're very good. Therefore, if your logic is true, I would have to surmise that GBP wants to build Erislandy up. I think it's also possible that they want to build either guy up and allow a direct match-up to decide the matter.

Good fight, I like both guys. El perro need a good camp to be able to keep the pressure, with that this will be an excellent fight.
I thing Lara is the favourite, but this is boxing and pressure count.

But then you turn around and ask yourself, what has GB done so far for Lara? Why would they wanna do anything for him now? I'd say they're trying Lara as the sacrificial lamb in this one. Remember hes the mandatory for Canelo. So if Lara loses to Angulo that sets up Canelo vs Angulo... So yea.

Then you factor in the theory going around that Lara struggles vs pressure...

great fight , hopefully lara will do his work and take angulo to school

I'll pick a technician over a brawler any day.

VERY easy fight for Erislandy. 2-3 punch combo then turn. I can see a TKO but not a KO.

Lara gonna spank Angulo out his boots
