Floyd Sr seems to have has started suffering from dementia from being hit to much in his boxing career,and couple that with rumors of heavy drug use and this is what you get. It is sad.

Medicine doesn't make your teeth fall off but Crack does Roger has what 3 teeth ? How does he eat his KFC ?

They are old and old age and bad conditions will make your teeth fall out. I dont know if they eat KFC or not but I think they do.

As badly shot as he is, Mayweather Sr. made some good points.

Pure ignorance from what normally is a good poster. Lara is a professional worthy of respect, and the differences between the amateurs and the pros isn't "tag your it vs fighting". What rubbish. This is the kind of crap these causals see and then run with it, there is a big difference between boxing well and running, and Lara boxed and utilized the ring magnificently.

I think Lara deserved the nod , but I agree with Ray.

Lara has bad habits and he already paid the price vs Williams , Molina, and Vanes; all fights he can and should have won.

If he only let " beautiful hands of his go" as Virgil Hunter would have said, all these fights would not have been close enough to make them controversial.

Lara looked like an olympian boxer fighting a final, he scored his 'points' then simply waited for Canelo's offense.

He looked better against Trout because Trout was trying to box him, while Canelo was following him around the ring most of the times, looking for some flashy (albeit uneffective) combo to the body.

Basicly Canelo was 'stealing rounds' while Lara was 'scoring points'.

On a side note.

I heard that it is very difficult to teach a guy to ' fight' , to let their hands go, especially one as skillful as Lara.

Does somebody have any experience/ story in that regard?.
