NEW YORK – Canelo Alvarez was willing to talk Tuesday about fights against Joshua Clottey, Miguel Cotto and Gennady Golovkin.
One fight the Mexican star dismissed during an informal gathering with boxing writers at HBO’s Manhattan building was a rematch against Erislandy Lara (19-2-2, 12 KOs). Alvarez barely beat the Cuban-born southpaw by split decision July 12 at MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Lara lobbied for a rematch in the immediate aftermath of their first fight and thereafter, but Alvarez isn’t interested because he believes Lara ran from him during much of their 12-round Showtime Pay-Per-View main event.
