Comments Thread For: Erislandy Lara May Jump To Middleweight After Next Bout

[RussB23]

Lara should just move up, nobody left at 154 and i think he can beat alot of guys at middleweight.

Except he'll be fighting Vanes at jmw

Being Haymon-affiliated has only led to stay-busy fights. He needs to face a LMW contender next (Nelson, Vanes, etc).

Lara vs. Rosado at 157

Negotiations for that fight died apparently.

Rosado would get that work. I don't see how that fight would even begin to materialize though. Rosado is WBA #4 at LMW which makes no sense, and he's with GBP.

I heard it ramped back up after Jrock and Charlo fights died

Lara was negotiating with Charlo and Jrock, or do you Vanes was negotiating with Charlo and Jrock?

He's fought at 157 before and I saw him on Twitter saying he was trying to get a fight soon. Lara is in the same situation with Haymon as Khan is. He has a manager and Haymon is his adviser. I think that would be a good undercard on the Canelo-Khan fight. Just wishful thinking.

Vanes had that IBF elim with Jrock, but then that broke down and he was gonna sign to fight for the direct IBF title... then that broke down... so back to Lara rematch
