Both are good fights and will present different challenges to Canelo. Isn't it funny that it is widely accepted that Molina beat Kirkland and Lara beat Williams, yet, it is Williams and Kirkland, not Lara or Molina, getting the Canelo fight.
You ask Lara who he rather see fight Alvarez. Kirkland or Molina? He'll say Kirkland. Ask Molina who he'll rather see fight Alvarez. Williams or Lara? He'll say Williams. When you got a young fighter like Alvarez about to headline his first PPV you gonna put him in with a fighter that's gonna provide excitement. It's what makes sense. And there's no denying the fact that Kirkland's seek and destroy style and Williams 150 punches a round are more exciting to watch than Molina clinch and hold and Lara's one punch at a time style
