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

[diarraisagod]

when he choose anhulo he was not the best oponent, as well that cotto isnt the best now. Lara or kirkland are the best oponents

Trout was the best available opponent at the time...
Likewise with Mayweather afterwards...
Angulo was a tough opponent to take in a rebound fight and more than a few people gave him a good shot at winning before hand.

Not taking the absolute best available opponent 100% of the time is not ducking either. It was a reputable, talented and highly ranked opponent. Adonis Stevenson won't fight Kovalev in his next fight, does that mean he's ducking too?

I wish I'd realised how dillusional you are with a with a strong pro-cuban bias before wasting time yesterday discussing things with you.

No doubt you'll make more unfounded predictions of conspiracies against every Cuban fighter.

For what it's woth I'd like to see Canelo fight Lara, I don't think he's afraid or ducking and that they'll meet sometime this year or next.

Lara a big mayweather lmao....yeah if Floyd was ok with leaving himself open and had been dropped a few times in his career. I like Lara but he ain't answer too many questions himself. That fight is a 50/50 if there ever was one.

as i said, im not in a popularity contest so please focus in my arguments not in me. Said that mayweather fight is the exception due to the exceptional earnings out of the regular ones. Nobody cares to loose against mayweather. Besides mayweather, if in your last 3 fights you choose only one against trout legitimate and for the next one your are still doing this i must consider you a ducker. If most of the time you are on this you make the judgement. The same to mickey now with gamboa. The boxer gain respect and credibility by their actions.

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.

part 2. And yes, the truth is promoters are bias against cubans. How many examples of unfair treatment do you need to make this conclusion?. One case is probable, but 3?. I dont believe in such many coincidences all the time. Im not so naive. Gamboa is being blocked by arum, rigondeaux as well with arum and oponents, lara is being ducked also. Too many coincidences to be naive and believe they are not ducking. The 3 are in the top of their divisions. Why rhey dont get the opportunities they deserves?. Of couse, you guys have a big pandora box of excuses. In lara case, is unnaceptable he has to fight ishe smith since he is in line to get the fight with canelo since 3 fights ago. Yes, im frustrated because is not only with cubans. This is the norm of the boxing lately. Mayweather case is out if the world. Please dont use the exception to make your point.

[MEXGBP]

this is a stay busy fight, waiting on cotto-martinez result
he is fighting rabachenko, who is #1 contender wbc
other possible fights would be kirkland, mundine,
their is plenty of fights, vanes, andrade, brian rose, charlo brother.
but if molina is clear to fight, he will fight molina,
lara fight is going to be 2015

hey pinche. The discrimination and racist is showed mainly by the powerful against the weak. In boxing, the powerfuls are the golden boy and the weak lara. So the racist is against cubans this time.

[QballLobo]

Sure Lara may be on the list, but they have to have a viable PPV opponent. Lara getting owned trying to call out Canelo shows no one outside of NSB fight freaks care about this guy. If Canelo fights him great, he will shut up the haters just like he did against Trout, but Lara is not some world beater and is not the only option.

[ihatebobarum]

Canelo has fought Mosley, trout, angulo, floyd and boxing fans are still saying BS about him. You cant please no one, so f them. At least he's considering someone who GGG is ducking....

i only give him credit for the trout fight which was a legit threat, may doesnt count even i will fight may for the $$$, the benefits outweighed the risk so that leaves snr mosley, and a shot angulo coming of a loss to u know who, but 1 name i think u forgot that was a legit threat would be mathew hatton, nelo sure has been in there with the best of them, btw I LOVE YOUR PICTURE hilarious.
