      He seems a lot less squared in the shoulders so the rumors of him continuing to focus on hand speed might be true..he's a heavy hitter if he manages to improve his hand speed this kid could seriously seriously be a problem beyond Lara.

        great, great fight.

        kudos to GBP for putting it on, but in a perfect world it woulnd't be ppv.


        fans are going to learn something, doe. if they want fights like this, they're going to ahve to pay for them on ppv.

        want kovalev / ward
        ward / golovkin?
        kovalev / pimp steven?

        you're probably going to have to pay $70 for it.

          canelo looks about 183 1/3 lbs. how is he going to make 155?

          i expect canelo to be very drained at weigh-in.

            I agree. If Lara boxes to his ability, he will win a comfortable decision.

              I disagree I think he looks more like 167.8 lbs to be exact.

                CANELO is a great guy and a great fighter but i believe LARA will be too much elusive for him,CANELO is not a pressing fighter like PERRO so i don't see LARA get caught like vs ANGULO;CANELO' style is taylor made for LARA IMO. I hope CANELO will not bring any kind of respect to LARA because when he will start to miss him and get countered the fight can become a nightmare for him.

                    No no you're wrong, he looks 171.3.

                    Seriously though he looks big. He's going to have to cut some serious weight next week.
