    Lara is not as good as you claim him to be, that is why i dont think he beats Canelo.

    Canelo is fighting one who "some" consider to be the best p4p OF OUR ERA at the tender age of 22...enough said.
    The cashing out you moron, Floyd is on his way out and la caperucita can't avoid the real men at 154, so they getting their money back...

      I do, which is messed up especially with the whole weight and everything. That doesn't excuse the fact that he didn't go to the body against Angulo, didn't show much angles, didn't duck under Angulo's punches whilst turning him, instead he continued to get cornered against a slow footed Angulo which is embarrassing to say the least. Instead of his fans rightfully critiquing that performance I'm suppose to believe Angulo's resurrected or better yet...would beat Canelo which is laughable. Lara has the tools but has never been known to put it all together, I think people heavily overrate him at times.

        Lara fights in spurts too, and he's not good at keeping his opponents at bay, he's very easy to hit with bodyshots.

          I have been reading in this thread that Canelo did not earn the fight with Floyd and the fight was just handed to him. I disagree. Mayweather fought Cotto not that long ago and said Cotto was the best he ever fought and gave him his hardest fight. In his next fight after Floyd Cotto loses a ud. to Trout by the same scorecards of 117 to 111 that he lost to Floyd by. Then Canelo beats Trout who just finished beating the best guy Mayweather ever fought. That is how Canelo earned the shot. Canelo is rated the #1 154 pounder in the world by ESPN, Boxrec, Boxing Scene, Ring Magazine and just about everybody else. He is the holder of both the WBC and the WBA world titles and he is in line to fight Floyd for Floyd's WBA superchamp title. On top of that he brings Floyd more money than any other fighter in the world could bring him. So I have to wonder who else has earned the fight with Floyd ahead of Canelo? Who else should Floyd be fighting? If Floyd is going to fight at 154 nobody but Canelo makes any sense as his next opponent in my opinion.Floyd is fighting the guy he should be fighting and he is the most dangerous guy Floyd has fought in many years.

            Lara was making Angulo miss by a hair and they were fighting in a phone booth, he had no place to go but to trade, I yes I beleive that the real Angulo show up for that fight, he was throwing bombs non stop and his stamina issue against Kirkland wasn't existent, he fought his best fight in years against one of the best, Lara needs Pedro Diaz in his corner by the way...

                That's how you earn fights these days? By earning a questionable decision with paid off judges over a guy who beat a welterweight coming off a loss? You don't have to actually beat the other good fighters in your division anymore, and in fact you can avoid them and be rewarded?

                  Canelo would knock him out before he even gets close to gassing.

                      because in 40+ fights he has fought:
                      Hatton at a catchweight he , Canelo missed
                      Rhodes
                      Gomez JWW
                      Lopez JWW
                      Archie Solis the flyweight
                      Old and fat Baldomir, a journeyman that got lucky once
                      and the mighty feather fisted Trout, and he barely got the nod we all know why...
                      And Lara has fought how many midgets, uhmm, none
                      Brewster
                      williams
                      molina
                      angulo
                      vanes
                      he even went to MW and ko Hearns a bigger man, actually he hasn't fought anyone with a losing record...
