Will Erislandy Lara ever get his just due?

[pretty boy_]

Paul Williams, Canelo Alvarez, Jarrett Hurd and now Brian Castano.


What the hell happened to our sport? The sport where skills payed the bills. When it was about hit and not get hit?

Slick, defensive wizards never get their due it seems. You out box off the back foot and they say you are on your bicycle. You hit and don't get hit and they say you have no power. Boxing is like jazz...

Do you think its time we demand younger judges? The old folks ringside are counting punches that aren't even't landing. They're scoring flash due to blurry vision.

Lara is not a defensive wizard ala withtaker, he just pot shot and run too much, waste his energy and get too easily cornered, he does takes unnecessary punishment and always drag himself into close fights losing the last part of the fights.

He's the one to blame for getting those draws.

Agreed the p will fight was a robbery.

[KTFOKING]

Lara got robbed vs Williams, but that's it. Other fights could have gone either way, and he got a win over Molina where a lot of people thought he lost that fight. He looked like the better fighter against Canelo but he simply didn't do enough offensively to separate against him. And today he fought well in spurts but other times was on the ropes getting banged to the body and just out hustled.

Lara is a damn good fighter that is properly rated IMO. Gives anyone hell at 154, but is his own fault he's is so many close fights.

[lolpz]

Lara literally hasn't lost a fight yet in my eyes, its crazy. The closest he's ever come to losing was the Vanes fight. Now he's older, hes visibly lost a step or two, and still fighting at an elite level.

Man oh man, what a shame. He should be top 3 p4p atm.

If Lara would have tried to win the championships rounds he would have won the fight...but he didn't. Same against Hurd

No not the same at all Hurd was really putting hurt on him connecting, Castano was hitting gloves and elbows clown.

Castano was not only hitting gloves and elbows that is straight up bull****. You tend to forget alot of Lara's combinations and 1,2's hit Castanos gloves and arms as well. Lara was missing alot too

You can’t connect every punch but please provide me punch stats cause I know what I saw and lara looked like Floyd out there.
