Canelo vs. Lara: Post Fight Discussion Thread

[Bardock]

You might have a point about the whole catchweight thing with Floyd, but with that said, Canelo has a habit of taking breaks in fights; he seems to have a noticeable stamina problem. That doesn't bode well for him against Lara.

The Trout fight was a lot closer than the scorecards indicated.

On a side note, Trout has said that Lara is an even better boxer than himself, and that he favors Lara in his fight with Canelo. He also spoke on how difficult it was to figure Lara out; in contrast, he felt he had an easier time getting Canelo's rhythm down.

How does canelo taking breaks in fights benefit lara though? you think he's going to walk canelo down? lol lets be realistic here. Im sure if he gets tired he will stand in the middle of the ring and tell Lara to fight, which he wont, but thats okay cuz you shouldn't be banking on canelo's stamina over lara's non pressure fleet footed style because like I said, lara will not come forward. I don't think canelo will have stamina issues, he knows lara will be running for his life so im sure that's what hes worked on.

Of course trout says that because fanboys like mathysse and canelo haters say trout won some how even though he didn't land 1 significant punch the whole fight, literally. Think about it, can you recall once canelo's head getting snapped back? He dictated the pace of the fight, was the cleaner puncher, landed more, knocked him down, better defense, etc etc. It was closer than the cards read but no way was it as close as people say.

Canelo wasn't running from trout he was out-slicking him in the center of the ring so of course he didn't have to find him. AND trout said he couldn't catch lara's rhythm because he was on his bike the whole damn fight instead of boxing in the center of the ring. Trout was forced to cut the ring off for fcks sake lol he ran from trout so of course he saved both of them from getting booed out of the arena. Trout had to MAKE the fight vs Lara, what a joke

Canelo taking breaks matters because Lara's kryptonite has been fighters with activity. By taking breaks, it plays into Lara's hands.

Alvarez' stamina is paramount in this fight, particularly if it goes the distance. Angulo gave Lara constant pressure; it takes extremely good conditioning to do what he did. Being that Lara is rangier, quicker, particularly of foot, skilled, and likes to "run" as you say, wouldn't Canelo need the energy to go find him?

Canelo vs Trout was alot closer than Trout vs Lara: wouldn't you agree?

It doesn't matter because he won't be tired and he's not going to chase lara if he's tired wtf would he? Lets say canelo gets tired, will lara start chasing canelo? lol NO
yeah I agree but do you agree Angulo was the same fighter lara fought but canelo beat this piss out of angulo by out pressuring him and taking the fight to him from round 1, do you agree?

How do you know he won't be tired? Unless making 154lbs was the main issue, I can see him getting tired, because he has a history of gassing.

I do think that Canelo beat Angulo more impressively, but I don't know if he was or wasn't the same fighter.

Is Angulo an above average mover/boxer? It's much easier to pressure a fighter like Angulo as long as you are physically strong enough and have power that he respects. And even in that fight, Canelo didn't consistently pressure him; by the time the mid rounds came around, it was Angulo who was coming forward consistently.

I think this is the first time one of them is on American TV. On a major network/event anyway.

They got so much attitude, very funny. i see them when the middle one fighting one of our own.
i'm just afraid it's gonna be like the klitschko again cause they have realy similiar weight.

Trout definietely snapped Canelo's s#it back with some straight lefts.

Trout definietely snapped Canelo's s#it back with some straight lefts.

I don't recall any of that happening. There's literally one punch in the 3rd or 4th where Trout landed solid other than that I didn't see much land cleanly.

[BendOver]

yeah it will be the best. Just like when mathysse fought peterson at a catchweight so he can keep his spot as the #1 contender to fight danny, many people still considered mathysse the best at 140 even tho him and danny hadn't fought yet. Canelo will probably rematch floyd some time this year or next year if he wins and don't forget win or lose canelo will most likely fight cotto too at 160 for the belt. so a 1 pound difference is going to benefit both fighters like I said. Lara has fought at middle weight and canelo hasn't I guess you can say he has at 155

Lara is going to ruin him, the punishment will be of epic proportions and I want to see you back here taking the abuse like a man...

[RawDawgHasSpokn]

Canelo was a whole different animal against the dog but it Lara can actually box. I'm a fan of both but Lara gets hit and Canelo throws bombs.If Lara stays on that bike and boxes he can win but I don't think he will. He'll win the later rounds when cinnamon gasses but Canelo may go up big early on, especially if there are knock downs.

That's besides the point. Dude said Trout landed nothing of significance the entire fight which is nonsense.
