Well...you get my point.
Exactly. Any of those fights would be more of a mismatch than Lara. However, I really want to see Mayweather fight Pac, the sooner the better. Assuming Pac beats Rios, the fight should be held in May.Comment

I didn't say Angulo was an elite, what I say was that Lara was set up to lose, a small ring that will only benefit a slow brawler with a heck of a punch, he could not rehydrate more than 10 pounds while Angulo did over 20 pounds, they could not cool him off in the corner, so you tell me, they don't want ginger to face Lara that's the bottom line even a blind man can see that, but not, ginger fans don;t want to see it...Wait a minute, Trout ain't elite but Angulo is?
Lara was set up to lose even though he was the favorite and every prediction poll had him winning by a landslide? Come on, get real. This was supposed to be Lara vs a walking heavy bag, but the heavy bag gave him some problems.
Is Angulo elite?
Apples and oranges, you simply bring up that fight anytime you argue with a poster that picked Donaire but it doesn't mean ****. I can bring up the fact that you were riding Matthysse, Mr "I'm always right"
.
You just said that Angulo is more elite than Trout and I'm the stan? LMAO. He couldn't beat Cintron but he would spark Canelo early, sure, if that makes you feel better about the fact that Lara struggled with him...Comment

What I see is a whole bunch of excuses being made for Lara's poor performance against a come forward brawler.I didn't say Angulo was an elite, what I say was that Lara was set up to lose, a small ring that will only benefit a slow brawler with a heck of a punch, he could not rehydrate more than 10 pounds while Angulo did over 20 pounds, they could not cool him off in the corner, so you tell me, they don't want ginger to face Lara that's the bottom line even a blind man can see that, but not, ginger fans don;t want to see it...Comment

I like Lara, but he hasn't been all that impressive during his pro career. I do think some of the factors that were brought up such as Angulo apparently violating the stipulated rules by rehydrating 20 pounds should be taken into account, but Lara still hasn't clearly separated himself from the other 154 lb. contenders like Molina, Martirosyan, or Trout.
I'm of the opinion he would probably give Floyd a tougher fight (along with Pacquiao) than other top guys at 140-154 for the time being, but I think that will change over the next few years as fighters like Thurman improve.Comment

Buddy, if you have those odds against you and still come out on top that's f%%ing great, if you broke your hand and still putting a hurt on a top five guy in your division, that's f%%ing great, there's no way Lara-Vanes was a draw, the guy stop the fight even before the doc check him he was lucky they clashed heads cuz he was getting tagged broken hand or not, and who gets up from two knockdowns like he suffered and keep the composure while putting a beating and make the guy quit, you might not like him but the guy is a very good fighter with a ton of heart, don't you remember the mellon he had against Williams?Comment
