cant get the charlo's same trainer...andrade off..canelo 155...already beat vanes and molina..soro is tr right? if not thats the only top ten fight that he hasnt fought..except for jrock..jrock wants trout not lara..willie nelson likely wouldnt fight lara at this point..no belt no money...lara will get a shot at wbc belt or wba..things will work in his favor for always fightin top opponents..
zavic is ranked 20

he just fought ishe..ishe is ranked 13th

^He didn't beat Molina, he lost to him but got a gift draw and then refused to rematch him. Vanes fight was a draw as well. It's true that the division isn't stacked with available top guys for Lara, but I don't see that changing anytime soon. Julian Williams and Andrade are the 2 he could aim for in 2016 but if they don't happen he'll be against Zaveck guys for a while yet.

Expect PBC to post even lower ratings for this dud. Nobody cares about either of these guys and it likely won't be entertaining to watch.

I think people care to watch Lara, they just don't care to watch him vs these bs guys he's been fighting since PBC has started. They wanna see him fight someone real & he's proven he can compete with the best guys so that should be happening instead of these bs fights.

My assumption is there isn't anyone really ready for Lara yet. The Charlo's aren't quite ready, Julian Williams probably isn't quite ready. Or Trout, the best guy besides Lara in PBC probably is a guy Lara has beaten already. I'm still thinking Lara will get matched up with the Charlo who just won a title sometime in early 2016, but in the meantime it'd been better for Lara to fight some better opposition.

the upside though is anyone in the Miami area with no plans that night can score some free tickets.......

They can't get better fights for ESPN?
