    Please show me the contract where it says that Lara (but not Angulo) couldn't rehydrate past 164.

    I am not a hater either. I'm a big Lara fan, I just think he's silly to make these excuses after the fight. All of the negotiations occur prior to the fight. He's represented by the most powerful person in all of boxing, I refuse to believe he would explicitly agree to such disadvantages. Also, he's a fool if he believed an oral agreement would be enforceable over a written contract.

    Stop making excuses for the guy. He won the fight.

      Remember when Trout beat cotto less convincingly than Floyd did and all of a sudden he was the greatest thing at 154 and Floyd was ducking him? Then trout was thoroughly outboxed by Canelo.... and everyone said Floyd was afraid of Canelo and would never fight him.... Floyd shuts out Canelo 12-0 and now next best thing at 154 is Lara. But Lara really isnt all that great, hes just next best without a recent loss. Floyd beats him easy.
      In what world did Canelo "Thoroughly" out box Trout? That fight was scored before the first bell even rang. I had it a draw even with the knock down. Canelo looked good in stretches but he lost plenty of rounds in that fight. They had him winning virtually every single round which was a joke.

        Lara is a slick southpaw with decent power and good boxing ability. Exactly the style that Floyd doesn't want to face. Straight lefts and lots of movement don't interest Floyd one bit, see Emmanuel Pacquiao for reference

          He's not great but he's very good and very different to what Floyd is used to. That's why he's interesting.

                It wasn't a written contract you **** head, he say it right after the fight in the interview, and gpb didn't denial it, my guess is that de cubas is getting pay under the table by gbp to not pursue a fight with ginger, if you watch the interview Lara exposed the $h1t that went on behind the scenes, the small ring I can understand because maidana was the main attraction that night, we all know he is a brawler, but my issue is with the weight...

                      Movement, footwork, sense of distance, timing and accuracy make him so great.
