Lara will win the battle on points but lose the ware. Canelo is coming to KO him and probably more focused than ever has and we should see his best effort to date. Lara is far too easy to hit and was lucky Angulo's eye blew up because he simply could not not take Angulos power.Quote:

Canelo is a bully cunt, but he's also the smarter and more consistent fighter with underrated defense.
Unless Lara stays outside all night, doesn't tire and out speeds Alvarez, I don't see him beating the red headed fuck.

did you fuckin find out what the fuck the odds are?
@Ron Swanson nailed it. Canelo at heart is a boxer-puncher, not a pressure fighter, like an Angulo, who Lara struggled with. Canelo also isn't the pure boxer that Molina is, who Lara struggled also with. Lara beat the other boxer-puncher he faced in Trout. It's a tough call. My issue is whether at 23 Canelo has learned to adjust. If Lara runs and pot shots from the outside, which he should do to win, can Canelo pressure effectively and corner Lara into exchanges? I hesitate to say that he can. Also, Lara has a world class trainer in Ronnie Shields and Canelo's trainers are sort of an unknown commodity. They didn't do a good job with preparation for the Mayweather fight is all we know. How was Canelo's camp in that regard? I'm leaning Lara now.
8/1 with LadbrokesQuote:

I'm setting on fence this time, but leaning towards Canelo, Alvarez goes to the body as well as most and Angulo was working well to to Lara's body.Quote:

Lara is an in and out sharp shooter who will be a hand full for Alvarez. He's quick, slick, and determined, his two weak spots are his body and pressure.
I'm pulling for Canelo, but Lara is a hand full. I'm still setting on the fence.
Both fighters have something to prove. Lara, while a slick boxer, often fights in spurts. If this fight goes to the cards, he will have no chance winning on points. Lara also has a tendency to keep his hands down...leaving him open to getting caught with a punch. I am still not convinced on Canelo's stamina. He also fights in spurts and can have a tendency to slow in latter rounds. It's a pick em fight for me. But i feel Lara will be under more pressure to be active and busy...a close fight going to the cards will not be in his favor.
Good point about Lara being under pressure to win big.Quote:

I am suprised at how small Lara is and think that he will get beat by Canelo.
Still sticking too canelo knocks out or the ref stops the fight between the 8th - 10th round. Canelos boxing is very underrated. I think it will be a long night for Lara and don't think he'll be able to stay away like people are saying.
Odds for lara to win??
So was I. Lara better bring his A game. He's going to need it to keep Canelo off himQuote:
