    Default I picking Lara this weekend!!!!

    I really think hes going to beat Canelo, hes a southpaw who has great boxing ability and is good at countering. Going off the Mayweather performance and comparing the Trout performances I just think Canelo is going to get outboxed. Ive liked what ive seen of Lara and I think he has come across really well in the all access. I hope he beats Canelo, I cant say I am a fan of his.

    As bad as Canelo got schooled, outboxed, and exposed against Mayweather.... the Cuban Lara knows he's not likely to get a decision win against him. Which means he may decide to exchange with Canelo, which does not cater to his advantages. Were the fight to be held in NY or Atlantic City, on the other hand, there's no doubt in my mind that Lara would school Canelo just as bad as Floyd did.

    I have said Lara will be too slick for Canelo. The think about Lara is that he also has pretty decent punching power I think he could do some damage with fast hard punches enough to possibly cause a stoppage from swelling or cuts

    Lara will have to win very, very decisively to get a decision over Canelo. He definitely has the tools to do it, so it should be interesting...

    Hell... even Austin Trout... generally a quiet unassuming guy and one you wouldn't think has a vested interest in the fight.... pretty much says Lara would have to put Canelo down to get the nod. Fellow boxers don't usually get into those discussions about other fights... which just goes to show how popular that opinion is.


    I just hope Lara fights his fight and gives Canelo "Boxing Lesson # 2".
    It'll be up to the judges to decide who wins.

    If you watch Lara's fights with Angulo and Molina you'll see Lara did not like taking shots to the body. Alvarez doesn't ignore the body. And he hits harder than Angulo and Molina. Lara is good and tough. So he could go all 12. But it's gonna be a long, painful 12

    Canelo is a one trick pony and will only be effective early, that's ok against shit opposition hence why he has a good record, but it wont work against a good fighter like Lara, hes too predictable.

    I wouldn't say a one trick pony but you are right about being effective only in the early rounds. He still fades down the stretch as we saw el Perro pick up the pace before the stoppage and Canelo was tired. I think its a toss up but I think Lara is gonna take it. I bet some money with a friend from work

    Alvarez is better than Angulo and Molina. Molina beat Lara. And Angulo dropped him twice. I have a hard time seeing Lara being able to keep Alvarez off him

    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.

    @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.
