    No, but he has shown that he has the power to hurt and knock them down (trout)

    Dude doesn't have one shot KO power but I guarantee you Lara didn't stay in the pocket against him for a reason (unlike angulo Lara).
    As a matter of fact, I hadn't really seen Lara get on his bike like that until the Canelo fight.

      Lara never stay in the pocket, he like to fight at a distance and use his 74" reach. Canelo is too low volume and too lazy to cut the distance, and yes his power is overrated.

        I've seen lara fight, he doesnt run that much

        he postures a lot, stays in the pocket a bit and uses his length at mid distance but he doesnt jump or run anytime a fighter comes near him like he did with canelo.

        not saying canelo is some 1 punch KO fighter, but he can punch.
