Comments Thread For: Erislandy Lara Easily Blows Out Jan Zaveck in Three

[deanrw]

Lara looked super slick like Floyd and super powerful like GGG.

To go in there and overwhelm an elite P4P fighter like Zaveck in 3 rounds is amazing.

[KO MX]

damn!! he could do the same to Canelo ...... oh wait

[JmH Reborn]

Yeah, Zaveck was done - he didn't want no more. He got his purse and is going home.

It seems as if the people running the marketing department forgot the 4Ps of marketing - you know, freshman level stuff here.

Product - Lara...eh; make the matchup compelling at least, even on ESPN. Are there any top 20 guys who have just a tiny bit of heart and aren't 40 years old and washed up.

Place - We have options - doesn't mean they all have to suck. We've only been given about 5-6 good matchups and I think like half of them were by accident

Price - I mean its on basic cable - but they suck so bad that I'm still considering just going to an all online package, because this ish isn't compelling enough to keep cable around, especially with HBO now standalone.

Promotion - didn't even know this guy was fighting today

[Teetotaler]

Did he say anything in the post fight interview or press conference about whats next?

[MrClutch85]

He might be easy work. All I know he's a whole lot better than the bums he's been fighting lately.

Lara is light years better than any of his opposition been fighting lately. He should be embarrassed for fighting this level of competition.

I agree Lara had 3 soft touches he need to step up the competition maybe Willie Nelson Demetrius Andrade or Vanes Martirosyan rematch could be next

Dan Rafael @danrafaelespn
Mismatch on paper. Worse in the ring. #PBConESPN

Rafael just tweeted that out and he works for ESPN and he's trashing this fight. lol

He loved Canelo Kirkland though.

[otrocubiche]

when a top fighter gets a tomato can in front of him, that's what supposed to happen, can't understand the irrational hate coming from some people

on the other hand, a very bright mind schedule this thing on the open, in south florida, where it rains everyday, twice..............

[VatoMulatto]

Lara did what he had to do and looked good. Now let's see him against better opponents. I'd love to see him against one of the Charlo brothers or Andrade.

[lopez36]

Who cares he was fighting a bum 39 Yr old welterweight!!!!!

Not to mention he's fighting on the undercard because no one cares to see him fight!!

..and on a Wednesday..lol

[Cinci Champ]

Great Performance who next to get that work Andrade GGG

well we know ggg wont fight him so hopefully andrade
