    What happened to him against Carlos Molina?

        that's the past. styles make fights and its hard to look good against Molina and he probably didn't train as hard.

        Just like Garcia looked crappy vs Morales but kept getting better.

            Molina is a poor man's Hopkins. No one can look good against him. Do you think Floyd can look as good against Molina as he did against Canelo and Guerrero?

                No he can't at all, Molina is a spoiler that is what he does but Floyd also does some of that stuff and is a lot better than Molina at it, so I jsust can't see Lara looking decent against Floyd

                I said I wanted to see Floyd fight Molina though because Floyd has never fought a spoiler like that, so it would be something different.

                    I don't think Lara has changed watching the Vanes fight, he has tools but he is not a high IQ fighter so guys that can mitigate his physical talent will beat him.

                    Floyd is at the top of the list of that sort of fighter.

                                people are hilarious

                                same people complain about Floyd being a boring fighter, but when floyd fights aggressive fighters, he's cherry picking mexicans and he should fight Lara instead

                                ....

                                fyi, Lara doesn't beat Floyd, he's a very good fighter but Molina dusted this dude, and he struggled against Angulo (how many times did he get dropped?)

                                only guys who give Floyd a good fight are Pacquiao and Martinez
