Comments Thread For: Canelo's Manager: Lara on The Short List of Opponents

Canelo is a media creation and he has enough skill to fit in the part. There are a lot of people making a living on his promotions, and sooo... Lara is too risky for short money. Canelo will get a vacant title, again, against lesser competition and this fight is way down the road. Getting Canelo knocked off, or seriously beat up would be bad for business.Comment

tjey will fight lara in a few years when he is not relevant and good opponent. Now he is willing to fight the grandpas that he will win. Canelo wil win cotto or martinez for sure. This is a silly fightComment

Sources close to the information have informed us that interim WBA jr. middleweight champion Erislandy Lara has been elevated to full WBA jr. middleweight champion status. The news means that Lara's upcoming May 2 clash with former jr. middleweight champion Ishe Smith will be for the WBA "regular" jr. middleweight title.
For those that may be confused, undefeated pound-for-pound king Floyd "Money" Mayweather is the current reigning WBA "super" jr. middleweight champion. Because he also holds the WBC jr. middleweight title, Mayweather was elevated to that status after capturing the WBA "regular" title from Miguel Cotto back in May of 2012. The WBA "regular" title then changed hands from Austin Trout to Saul "Canelo" Alvarez before finding it's way back to Mayweather, who was still the WBA "super" jr. middleweight champion, back in September of 2013.
Meanwhile, as all that took place, Lara was named interim WBA jr. middleweight champion after defeating Alfredo Angulo back in June of 2013. He successfully defending his interim title against Austin Trout in December of 2013, and now the WBA has decided to name Lara their "regular" jr. middleweight champion.
