mayweather had his ranking by virtue of his cotto victory in 2012. trout likewise had a lofty ranking by virtue of his victory over cotto. when alvarez beat trout, it established that he was the top 154 lber on the planet not named mayweather. when the two top boxers in a division fight under a vacant lineage, it reestablishes that lineage. mayweather is the lineal champion at 154.

^^^ thishow on earth is lara "the true champ at 154?"
off of a victory over austin trout?
i like lara. he's a very good boxer. he's forced to take on all comers because of his lack of fanfare. he's shown in the past that he is tough. he fought through some gross swelling in the williams fight [lara won that fight, but williams was clearly done,] and two big knockdowns against angulo.
lara's not a bad fighter at all, but he's extremely overrated on bscene.
the champion at 154 is floyd mayweather. he'll have to be inactive at the weight for a while for that championship to be vacated.Comment
