    BTW Canelo is no bigger than Williams or Perro and he is definitely not stronger than Lara. Refs stop el Perro, Lara make el Perro quit. And trout fell the same power from both Canelo and Lara. What make Canelo so strong? Fat maybe?

    Same height with Longer reach from Lara who is always in better shape. A bigger Canelo means a slower Canelo, and if he try to cut the ring with all that extra weight, that will just make him tired quicker.

    Great fight but please stop over hyping Canelo power, he have face 2 true 154 lbs and non have been stop by his power even the one that was a punching back who didn't move was taking Canelo to 12 round until refs call the fight.
    Canelo is WAAAY bigger than both of them. Specially Williams who is a tall, skinny, weak man compared to Canelo. Canelo is probably the biggest, bulkiest guy at that weight. Lara looks like a ww compared to Canelo. Canelo looks like a 60lber and he is even bigger than Martinez in the ring.

    As far as Trout goes, I dont really use triangle theories. Canelo fought him last year. While Perro fought Canelo yesterday. Fighters evolve every day. You may see GGG stopping everyone in 3 straight fights, then face Rosado and wont even drop him once. But in most fights he is very strong.

    Canelo hurt Perro WAY worse than Lara. Lara is a little dude. Lara is NOT quicker than Canelo at ALL. He's just so small that he SEEMS quick. Lara is slow to me. I never said Canelo had GREAT power, but for Lara being so small, his little skull may crack. And Canelo looks even bigger these days. I have a hard time believing he can take one of Canelo's shots without getting his entire day screwed up.

    I actually DONT overrate Canelo. You all UNDERRATE him and OVERRATE Lara. Lara has great range, and footwork, but rarely moves his head. He got ht by Perro, a fighter he was supposed to dominate if he was this slick boxer. Canelo isnt green at all to me. He may be unproven but he fights like a veteran. He actually DOES move his head, slip, and can stand right in front of you doing it. Lara cant stand in front of anyone. He can only run. All it takes is one of those fast shots, and it may shake his foundation.

        Lara has far too much movement for Canelo. I think Lara will win

            Lara was not allowed to go beyond a certain weight in that Angulo fight. He didn't have his legs because he had been told if he was over some weight then he would not be allowed into the ring so he did not rehydrate after the weigh in. That fight was misleading and many people thought Angulo was now reborn.

                Canelo vs Lara is one of the best fights to make at 154.

                It is though a bad match up for Canelo for a number of reasons, I respect his bravery though. By fighting Lara he is refusing the 'protection' that is usually granted to "cash cows". Nothing but admiration for it.



                As for Lara, he should of course take the fight, Ishe Smith is a dedicated guy but Canelo vs Lara is a much bigger fight, no doubt about it.
                Besides, if he beats Canelo he -might- get a shot at Floyd.

                  I fail to see how it's a bad idea to have Lara and Canelo fight each other. I'm really tired of seeing the best guys (or they're promoters and managers) finding reasons why they should strategically avoid facing each other. They're the top contenders at 154, with Mayweather waiting at the top. What is hard about this? Why complicate it further?
