    This is your opinion but in the opinion of some fans as well as the judges, they think Williams won. If you go to fightfax and boxrec, you will see a loss in Lara column.

    True...but he also has a draw with a child pedophile and the Armenian.

      Lara the most overrated? by who?.

      Nobody here is speaking about Lara being a future ATG or the next big thing even, while I've seen people considering Golovkin , for instance, being both.

      Lara is a very good fighter and his style would surely give Canelo (and possibly Floyd ) problems.

      He is not a Willie Pep or a Whitaker, but a very solid boxer who fought a better competion than Golovkin and wasn't handed a belt for beating Matthew Hatton.

          Yeah but ppl pay $60 to see Floyd pot shot n run around for 12 rds. Lara would **** Canelo up! Simple as that.

            Canelo will fight Lara if he keeps winning, but why would he do it before facing the winner of Cotto/Martinez or just fighing Cotto win or lose??

              Bad-mouth Lara all you want, but please...please don't try to say Williams won that fight. In one fell swoop, you lose all credibility. Lara-Williams was one of the worst robberies in recent memory. Practically everyone but the so-called judges thought Landy won. The decision was so bad that the NJSAC took the unprecedented step of suspending the judges in that fight. Does that sound like a credible win to you?

                All Lara does is run and pot shot around the ring.

                Floyd can move foreward and walk guys down.
                Lara...only has one gear....reverse.

                    Lara is overrated because people think he is "above the pack". No, Lara is on the same level as about 5 other fighters at his weight. He isn't far and away the best.

                      He is the only one in the division capable of beating Williams and that includes Floyd.
