    Again, I understand what people are thinking, but Lara isn't the fighter we want him to be. Look deeper than just physical attributes and "slick southpaw style".
    Floyd doesn't fire off with combinations. He has the inability to throw more than one punch at a time. What's your point?

      It is freaking hilarious to see floyd fans care about excitement for the fans now. They are now concerned about what the casual fan thinks, but just two days ago and everyday before that, "the casual fan dksab", "real fans respect the sweet science", "boxing is about hit and not get hit".

      So, here we have the ultimate pure boxers dream fight. 2 154 pound pure boxers, same manager, so why is this fight not good enough? Don't gimme that crap about how it wouldn't sell. Doesn't need to sell. Floyd just did over 4 mil, the money isn't a prerequisite as he has made more than enough for 50 lifetimes. All of the supposed "real" boxing fans should be demanding this matchup between to masters of the sweet science.

      But suddenlty, "pure boxing will put everyone to sleep". All of you boxing "is about hit and not get hit" dudes, are a pure joke. This is as pure a boxing match as you're going to see, the chess match you've all been talking about for years on this site.

      Now, you don't want it.

        Lara isn't that good, and he lost to Canelo, period. There was no robbery there, that was an extremely close fight that could have gone either way, he drew to Molina ffs.

        He's one dimensional and does the same thing over and over again, doesn't have a right hand, his defence is turd, his chin is questionable, he has no inside game whatsoever, he's not a good counter puncher.

        Mayweather would walk him down and beat him easily.


        Actually I'm not wasting my time.

          Because I don't think you can beat Floyd by throwing one punch at a time.

          You dudes don't get it. We want chess matches between 2 grandmasters. Not a grandmaster and a amatuer. That's boring because it's not competitive.

            So Lara, is good enough to expose Canelo and GGG, but not good enough to get a Floyd fight? lmao. foh. You're a flip flopper.
            Same division, same manager, so whats the problem? Lara won't demand an outrageous amount of money.

              Canelo fight could have gone either way, GGG destroys him and Floyd schools him. Stop making assumptions.

                You said before the Canelo fight that Lara was going to school him.

                I don't think you should be telling anyone to not make assumptions.

                You, one of the purist boxing fans, should be ecstatic over Floyd vs Lara.

                  I said it was 50/50. Stop lying dude. Damn. I picked Lara to win but so did a lot of others. And Floyd shut Canelo out so what's your point?

                    Those real fans ain't gonna pay for Floyd's pay check. Whether you like it or not, boxing is a business and a it certainly is a dream for the niche market as 90% of boxing fans casual or hardcore will have preferences over this potential snoozefest.

                      Defensively Lara Could probably hold his own with Floyd but offense really floyd is on a different level ,many more tools .Laura is a bit one dimentional and relies too much on his left hand only lara would only land a few punches a round at best
