    Anyone else think Lara would beat Floyd comfortably?

    Lara has more reach, more power and better foot movement and decent hand speed himself. Floyd does have the better defence obviously but I do think he would struggle with Lara. I don't think Floyd has enough pop to bother Lara if Canelo couldn't even get a knock down, Floyd won't slow Lara down via body shots like Canelo did as he doesn't possess the power to do so. Please don't compare their fights against Canelo as Canelo didn't do jack against Floyd, against Lara Canelo actually used the dictionary to see what the word pressure meant and applied it. Thoughts?

    PS: I wouldn't have minded if either guy won by 1 or 2 rounds last night as it was a close fight.

        lolz funny bro!

        back to TS topic I dont see how lara could beat floyd, if he can not get the nod from the judges vs canelo lara will never be able to get the nod from the judges vs floyd, only way for him to that is if he can KO floyd but the wont be happening....

          No not at all.... All Lara has is that straight left. Floyd is good at taking a punch away and that's what he would do to Lara.

            No, I don't think so.

            His activity level is just not enough, and Mayweather doesn't exactly have the highest output rate either.

            I always thought that Austin Trout would have been the toughest fight at 154 for Mayweather.

              Floyd would cruise to a 8-4, not easily, but not too hard either. Lara is playing Floyd's game. Floyd wins 10 out of 10 times.

                Difference is Canelo was weak zombie who was weight drained against Floyd he was strong and was able to get aggressive with Lara so yes I think Lara would make a fool of Mayweather if a C class fighter like Madaina slap Floyd around I'm sure Lara would but Floyd will never fight him he will duck him by saying he lost to Canelo
