Correct me if I'm wrong but Canelo is naturally as pasty as a glue stick. What does that have any bearing on his health/shape? #headscratcher

People are talking about his skin colour?
How racist (I joke) he is naturally ginger/red-head what do they expect...
I bet Canelos team will be beating themselves up right now saying,
"DAMN IT I knew we should of made you wear fake bake"
Completes the ruse

I keep looking at the Lara vs Molina fight where Molina was pretty much putting an ass whooping on Lara for the majority of the fight yet being robbed...
I definitely see this being a very winnable fight for Canelo but he is going to have to show a lot of heart tomorrow.

i was watching his fight with angulo and he goes left hand happy, i think if canelo can nuetrilize his left hand which is his best punch i think it could be lights out for lara..i dont care about his right uppercut or right hook cuz those are not his strongest punches.... and i also seen something very interesting, when lara was on the ropes angulo teed of on him and canelo is the best combination puncher in the game i think, lara is going to get hit with shots from different angles he has never seen.. canelo got this

Maybe you should actually watch the weigh in before you make a judgement. I got Canelo by TKO

I got Canelo with a split with a little help from Oscars Judges.

some people just dont know what the people of guadalajara jalisco look like.... they are very white and alot of them have red hair just like canelo.....i wouldnt expect any cubans to know that. thats why they say dumb things like that.

Canelo has nothing but red hair and stamina issues

"Lara's right hand is weak!"

You've got to remember though, Angulo was putting consistent pressure on Lara, completely disregarding punches to the face. Will Canelo be able to consistently do that? We will see tomorrow night.

Lara looked great. Canelo looked pasty and ginger.

Teddy Atlas was saying when Lara throws his jab out he has a tendency to lowering it oppose to placing it back in guard, Canelo has a beautiful left snappy hook I'm sure If he can keep Lara in range he will be capable of making that work.

I just don't want to see Canelo bothering with too much of the technicalities, I think he needs to start off quick If Angulo can hurt Lara...

Either way I want to see a war

It's not a great big deal but.. can Canelo not make 154 anymore? Then technically how can the winner of this fight be the best jr middleweight?

Hell no. He's draining himself bad just to make 155. The ginger needs to suck it up and move to middleweight.
