i hope canelo wins for the sake of future superfights but i just cant see him beating lara. i think lara will outbox him hes not as good as floyd or rigo... they do everything great i think lara has some flaws he keeps his left hand low n has been dropped twice by angulo

unless canelo has an epic punch output im not sure how he can win, cuz to me lara the much better boxer

lets see how canelo does in this ppv,i'm surprised and at the same time not because a lot of people I've asked and from what I've heard in interviews with people calling in to the Spanish stations of espn they don't know who lara is

I agree on a canelo wi, lara has struggled with lesser fighters and has never fought a fighter like canelo. Lara is no mayweather and that will be evident come fight night..but i think lara is good enough to make it competitive. But i dont have to tell you you know wuts cracking.

In my opinion this fight isnt even PPV worthy let alone movie theater worthy.

From what I have seen in lara's past fights, is that he cant take punches to the body... hhmmm Thats what canelo should do and hell be fine, but if its a "boxing" match canelo is done

After finally getting around and watching Lara/Trout this past weekend I have low expectations for this fight from an entertainment standpoint. Lara is a great technical fighter but his style is so boring.
I think Canelo beats him by decision by outworking him. I don't see a KO in this fight.
