Lara vs Martirosyan on Pac vs TBD Nov 10 Card

[Rantcatrat]

Winner is the mandatory for Canelo. Glad to see Vanes in against a real body finally. Gotta go with Lara, but this is a good fight.

Agreed. Lean toward Lara, but this is a good scrap at 154. Does anyone actually think Golden Boy puts Canelo in with the winner?

The mandatory against Canelo in November? Isn't he fighting Josesito Lopez in a couple weeks? My brain doesn't think Lopez will will, but, if Alvarez is looking past him (like Ortiz did) my heart is starting to fancy his chances!
I watched Martirosyan work out a bunch of times a few years back...He looked pretty good, but, around the gym, they were talking about him winning titles in 5 divisions. That is easier than it used to be, enough to make it meaningless, but we'll see.

Vanes is good. I just don't know if he has what it takes to beat Lara. I meant after Canelo beats Lopez.

Its to bad there is no site where a guy could throw a few bucks down on the chances that someone bails. I'd put 50 in Vanes finding a way out of the Lara fight.

If Vanes were to pull it off then I think Oscar would but not Lara imo.

I still have this gut feeling that Oscar will make a play for Cotto making the fight on either mans national holiday even if Floyd/Cotto 2 happens this winter.

I like Lara, but he's not invincible. He's no superman. I give Lara the most credit for keeping the fight close with Carlos Molina, although Molina won that fight, regardless of the judges' scorecards read. However, Paul Williams was passed his best when Lara faced him. Moreover, yes, Lara looked great against Ronald Hearns (who was knocked out by Harry Joe Yorgey), but that's Ronald Hearns. I still favor Lara against Vanes though.
