Comments Thread For: Lara: I Want Mayweather After Canelo, I'll Dethrone Him!

[Mr. Punch-Out!!]

This fight is very interesting. The best version of Alvarez that I've seen and the one that should have showed up vs Floyd made it to the Angulo fight. His shots were crisp, fluid and solid, great combos, didn't let up........Angulo seemed to be fighting under water.........sooooo slow.......which certainly helped.

But before that fight I would have said Lara beats him easily. Not so sure now. But if he does, I've felt for quite a while because of his build, that he's left-handed and does make adjustments, is very sharp in the ring.......I do think he's one of the very few real threats to Mayweather.......

Not taking any credit away from Canelo but the Angulo fight didn't really tell us anything. The questions stemming from the Trout and Mayweather fights are still unanswered and they will be important once again against Lara (who, in many people's eyes, did better against Trout than Canelo).

But I doubt Floyd takes the fight. It's got two problems........he needs a blockbuster to followup the disappointing numbers for Maidana despite it being an exciting fight and Lara can't draw...........plus it's not a visually appealing fight.

To be honest, visually appealing fight or not, the fact that Mayweather would be up against a very difficult opponent who may even possibly beat him would make everybody flock to it like crazy. Plus, if Lara beats Canelo, then they'd have a common opponent they've beaten, which would draw even MORE interest to it.

You guys need to learn to read. He's not overlooking anyone, he didn't say anything about Mayweather until the interviewer specifically asked him about it. The title of the article is taken out of context and mentions Mayweather to generate more traffic to the site. Lara was talking about canelo the whole time except for like the last sentence cuz he was specifically asked about Mayweather.

It's good to know at least someone is paying attention.

I sense another retirement coming up.

Lara should dream of dethroning Mayweather during his nap that Canelo is going to put him in. Mr. Sandman bring Lara a dream

I would LOVE to see that match up BUT focus 100% on Canelo FIRST! Seems like every time guys start talking about how they "WANT MAYWEATHER NEXT" they end up losing for some strange reason

Canelo is going to near this fool so bad that it'll be a closed casket viewing. At least he had a chance to dream

Canelo the dude who couldn't land 2 good punches on mayweather,stop hyping this guy up please..we all saw how well he did against a pure boxer..if lara uses his boxing skills this one dimensional ginger will have no chance

If Lara beats Alvarez(which is a tall order btw)I wanna see this fight as well..If I'm being honest,I felt this should have been the fight instead of the Maidana fight..

I agree,except with Alvarez who I felt had the cards stack against Trout tbh..I had that fight a draw,I did not mind either guy winning..I guess that's why there was not a loud outcry like that..Yet the cards for Alvarez Trout,was a disgrace..
