      People hype lara sooo much and hate on Canelo, but Lara has a lot of flaws. People are quick to talk **** about Canelo but Lara is extremely flawed and is overhyped!

        Actually, it worked out perfectly. You guys are doing exactly what you say Canelo fans do. You're hyping up Lara as the superior and faster guy who will give Canelo a lesson. People have been asked a few times to name Laras best win, and still, nobody will answer. People have said that Canelos chin isn't sturdy enough to hang with Lara, but can't name a single instance for that claim to have any validity.

        So again, I ask, who has Lara beat that makes him such a threat to beat Canelo?

          Thats exactly the point of this thread. What exactly has Lara done to garner such praise and who has he really beat for anyone, much less Canelo, to be afraid of losing to?

            5-6 times (on the mexican holidays, of course). There are plenty of guys he could fight: rematch with FMJ, rematch with Austin Trout, Miguel Cotto, Victor Ortiz, Vanes, Molina, Kirkland, welterweights who move up for a pay day, drained middleweights going down in weight for a pay day, washed up veterans. That alone is 8 - 25 potential opponents, with at least 5-6 that are "legit."

              100% of the people can't even name Laras best win.

                Not at all, at least in my case. I'd pick Canelo to beat Lara, because I don't Lara's gas tank is all that much better than Canelo's and I don't think his chin is that great either. Lara's best win is probably Angulo, who fights nothing like Canelo, as I've previously stated. Canelo has more skill and power than Angulo, but less stamina.

                But on the same hand, to say Canelo should be favored over Lara because he beat Trout doesn't make much sense either, as Trout and Lara's similarities end at being southpaw IMO. Trout tends to lead more, which gave Canelo more chances to counter and be defensive. Against Lara, he'd have to press and lead, something I believe he's a little less comfortable doing against guys his own size and strength, at least based on what we've seen.

                  lara beat paul williams and vanes martirosyan and got robbed in both fights. if he hadn't got robbed ,his short 21fight record would of been 3x better than canelos 42-0-1 record lmaooo

                    I don't see the logic, Angulo-Lara has no bearing on how Lara-Canelo would play out. Angulo and Canelo are completely different fighters.
