Lara need to learn how to fight inside though and stay the *** off of the damn ropes! If he could fight inside in the middle of the ring that would really help him conserve his legs and stamina, he moves around a lot and he backs up a lot
You can be a good counter puncher IN THE POCKET, he got clipped and dropped twice while...BACKING UP! I understand want to be elusive and want to box but what Mayweather and Rigondeaux guys like that do is far more advanced and I am far more entertained watching them then guys who are SLOPPY BOXERS who just back up out of just fear and not out of STRATEGY!
Because a smarter fighter with more speed and Power and the footwork to cut the ring off will get Lara against the Ropes and pick him apart because all he does is stand right in front of his opponent and just cover up instead of rolling and ducking underneath punches and counteringComment

not as delusional as lara's fans,those fans act like he just beat a very good fighter,like I said in a previous post,he beat angulo,angulo! not mayweather,not a top fighter but angulo,yet he got dropped and got hit a lot,wasn't an impressive win,even if lara would have won impressively it's still angulo,lol,thats right,slow,no defense,shot,punching bag angulo,a good fighter blasts a fighter with those weaknesses out,doesn't struggle,only an avg fighter will struggle against angulos weaknesses,which are a lotComment

i don't believe so,there are boxers who have skills but give fans a good fight,marquez is one of them,broner another one,broner doesn't run and hug,he has good defense but is exciting,you can have skills and be exciting,but some have skills and and aren't exciting .. there are fighters who aren't even hurt and could ko their opponents but don't do it like gamboa did against perez who wouldn't even really throw anything at gamboa,yeah there are fighters who might be limited like angulo is,but there are those like I mentioned who are highly skilled but crowd pleasers,they know what most of the fans want,they know how expensive it can be to go to these events and want to please them,i can't imagine paying 60 to get a ppv with gamboa,titere Vazquez and mike jones on that card,no way
I got nothing against either Angulo or Lara, they both fought a great fight and I was entertained. I enjoyed Lara's slickness and I enjoyed Angulo's grit and determination. They put on a great show but I don't believe they fought that way to entertain me. Its their job and they fight how they fight because its ingrained in them.Comment

That's just the mentality of some fighters. I don't believe Marquez gets cracked on the chin and then thinks "I gotta trade with this dude because a fan paid x amount for a ticket or a ppv". Some are just fan friendly and some are not.

So nobody else saw how crappy Erislandy's defense actually is???? If Angulo can land that many slow wide lumbering punches what do you think a younger more athletic fighter is gonna do if they just put a little pressure on Lara.Comment

A bunch of woulda, coulda, shoulda coming from these butt hurt Angulo fans. Lara beating up Angulo to the point that he quit is the end of the debate!!!! So what he got KD. He got up and made Perro quit!!! End of story!!!Comment

that's what I say,if angulo landed those very slow,wide punches on him,what would some top guy who isn't shot and actually has good stamina would do,look at the first round,look at how painfully slow he is and how wide his punches start,actually perro looks physically awful too,his body looks weak compared to what he looked like when he fought several years ago,it seems like he even struggles to walk now,totally shot fighterComment
