Comments Thread For: Canelo vs. Lara Could Be Ordered Directly To Fight

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

According to World Boxing Council President Jose Sulaiman, there is a possibility that he might order a mandatory fight between WBC 154-pound champion Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (41-0-1, 30KOs) and top contender Erislandy Lara (17-1-2, 11KOs).

Lara fought Vanes Martirosyan in a final eliminator last November in Las Vegas. The fight ended in a nine round technical draw. The WBC ordered them to fight again, but Vanes passed on the fight.

Now the WBC is deciding if they plan to order Lara fight another top contender in a final eliminator or skip that option and instead order a fight between Canelo and Lara.

That'd be a good fight.

Of course they're going to find the "highest available ranked fighter" for Lara. They don't want him to upset the apple cart.

No, it won't.

[CubanGuyNYC]

Yes, please!

Canelo vs Lara....make it happen

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

**** just got real. Lara about to shoot that straight left down the pipe and knock this bum Canelo out. Lara vs Rabchenko is a good fight too! They won't be ordering Lara - Canelo tho. That's for sure.

Does anyone know why Vanes passed on the re-match?

Carrot on the stick: Dangle Canelo as the bait and both Lara and the fans will accept another WBC elimination match. Then after the fight they can go back to the old 'Lara's not a financially smart fight' excuse.
