Is Erislandy Lara unbeatable at 154, can anyone at 154 beat him?

[DannYankee]

154 Lara is king right now funny he beat paul williams because he ends up taking paul williams role as one of the most avoided fighters he may get knocked down but he showed he has an iron will and composure he was forced to scrap they breached his contract with Angulo and put him in a 2 meter sandbox and he still won that fight by face breaking. If a guy who is constantly being set up for failures keeps prevailing you have to pay him his dues.

Far from unbeatable, but he could beat everyone in the division and IMO should be favored to do so.

carlos molina took on the lara fight with only two weeks to prepare.

i think ppl really forget that fact

anywho, he beats everybody else. (im not counting floyd, bc apparently he isnt a 154 fighter)

[BattleAxePurist]

Well at least you have a consistent formula to your theories.

First Trout now Lara,guessing Andrade will be the one to get this same treatment next year huh.

Nobody is unbeatable and Erislandy Lara certainly isn't either.

This says it all, but "except Floyd" should be added.

Ward, Quillin, GGG, Martinez, Mayweather

I remember hearing that Molina took the fight on short notice, but do you think he hadn't been training at all and just walked into the gym a couple of weeks before the bout?

I've also heard a few things about Lara that would've weakened him. For instance, it's been said that Landy was suffering from a tooth infection at the time of the fight. Ever have one of those? If it's true, I don't know how he did it.

I just can't ever wrap my head around how Molina beat Lara. I had it 6-4 Lara. He landed the cleaner punches, Molina held a lot and threw a lot but I don't remember seeing him catching Lara too often. Lara blocked almost everything.

It was a difficult fight to watch but I saw it twice and stand firm on Lara 6-4 but I am confused at those who are so adamant of Molina winning when the fight was so difficult and I mainly saw Lara landing the clean punches.

He "clearly" won is what gets me.

Okay you had Molina by 1 point, a draw, Lara by 1 point, it's understandable. The fight was too sloppy to have a clear winner. It depends on what you look for in fights. My thing is clean punching.

I saw the fight once and thought it was really close. I recall having Molina up ever so slightly. I can't see how anyone could be so certain that either guy won. A draw may not have been the absolute "right" decision, but it was a fair decision.

Lara isn't invincible, but he is the best guy at JMW right now
Floyd's the only one who should be favored at that weight to beat him
the guy just seems to get a bad rap ever since his fight with Vanes
but he had the best of that fight and shoulda won
wish he woulda got the Alvarez shot before Floyd did
and fuck Molina, he's too boring to wanna see a rematch
