    it's his lack of billing. people on bscene identify with the underdog.


    the same guys would be sh#tting on lara if he were a darling of GBP or goldenboy.

      People are just looking for someone Mayweahter is supposedly ducking. Nevermind that no one aside from some on this site are calling for that fight, not even Lara himself.

      Canelo vs Lara should happen this year though.

              Tell me....who outside of this site is calling for that fight??? Who outside of this site is going to pay $70 to watch Erislandy Lara, and I'm a fan of the guy. Who is Lara looking fight, Mayweather or someone else??? Did everyone forgot Lara's fights with Molina, Vanes, and the fact he struggled with Angulo.

              He looked good against Trout, because he's a good fighter obviously. But it was a complete style mismatch for Trout. Both are "slick" southpaw fighters, and Lara happens to be a little bit better at every single thing both of them do. Kinda like Floyd-Marquez.

              I want to see the two guys who beat Trout fight, Canelo vs Lara. It has a way more realistic shot at happening, Canelo isn't getting a 32 million guarantee no matter who he fights, so Showtime won't have to make up for as much money on that fight. Plus, Lara has a way better shot at landing a Mayweather is he beats a Canelo.

              Mayweather's best options right now are Pacquiao, Bradley, Garcia, and Maidana. Two of those four aren't happening for promotional reasons this year, Garcia seems to want a tune up at 147 first. It should be Maidana in May.

              Trust me, you'll see me b*tch is he picks Khan for May. That fight is GARBAGE until Khan does something legit at 147.

I'm just so tired of these fighters promising they will try everything in order to beat Floyd but once fight night comes their balls shrink. Wth Maida you know you will get your PPV moneys worth because he will try to go for the kill.
                  Yeah its because they realize how good he is when they face him in the ring.

                    At this point the most deserving is Bradley, Danny Garcia, and Maidana. Problem is both Garcia and Maidana are too slow and will get picked apart and Bradley is with Top rank and Tantrum boy Floyd doesnt like an 82yr old man named Arum.

                      Garcia but he doesn't seem to want it yet.

                      Next in line would be Maidana.
