Last Night did Lara earn himself a fight with Cash Cows, Canelo or Floyd?

[IamInuit]

I think he has and I'd be interested in a Lara Mayweather go. Floyd probally doesn't even know how to pronounce his name but style wise Lara comes closest to fighting Floyd with Floyd-ish ways.

I'd be really interested in that fight to, Lara could potentially give Floyd some real fits and make him lead, if it could happen at 154 that's as good a fight as any out there for Mayweather imo.

Respect both of your opinions a great deal but I just dont see Lara/Floyd as a very appealing fight style wise. Lara's stance is as wide as Broners. I see that one as 36 minutes of sizing eachother up.

Yeh I can see that too, both painting by numbers and watching it dry . But I'm stuck on the fact Mayweather has faced nothing like Lara in recent memory. Oddly, its an on paper stink out style I'd be willing to stomach to see what happens. If that makes sense. Whats the standard script on Floyd?..."cut him off, oh I have to rake the body and break his stride with pressure and volume" etc etc.

Lara is like...I don't care, and I'm sharp enough to stink it out also and won't play the script. Lara is a very accurate hitter, natural weight that Floyd is flirting with or -should- be now and a hard fighter to 'read' in there. He moves much much better than a Broner horse shoe stance and I honestly cannot compare the likeness. He could flip the script, not let it rattle him mentally and have Mayweather stepping in more than usual. Whats Floyds going to say if it is a pose off and hears the booos...Lara ran all night. Imagine that irony . Really though.....I think Lara is pretty live in that one. Who knows.

It has qualified him as one prospect among many for Floyd Mayweather but I wouldn't say he's earned a shot by beating Trout LOL

As for Canelo, Lara beat Trout better than Saul did so Yeah I certainly believe Lara has earned himself a shot at that cash cow and this could be a very good fight.

Despite his upshowing, Canelo is still my man and I'll weigh in early here...

Alvarez KO8 Lara!

If we're honest, by adding Trout to his list of victims, Lara has a more impressive ledger than Canelo did when he fought Floyd. Lara has wins over Trout, Angulo, Williams (regardless of the judges' scorecards), and a draw with Molina.

I think Lara just made it a lot harder for himself to get fights. He fights in a measured, economical punching style that is very effective but not fan friendly.
He picks his opponent apart like Floyd; is fast, accurate and patient like Rigo and punches pretty good too. He will be a problem for anyone who gets in the ring with him. This is the first time I've seen him and he impressed me, but I don't think I could ever come to enjoy his style.

Imjust trying to figure out whose more boring.. rigo or lara

[powerpuncher]

lara vs canelo is definitely the fight that fans want right now. i would be alright with a little four man tournament. canelo vs cotto and lara vs kirkland then the winners face each other.

This is how I see it. Lara is going to be difficult for anyone & doesn't really bring a big pay day. His performance over Trout just increased his risk assessment. I think he should be entitled to a Canelo or Floyd fight but I don't see them taking the bait

Like @Spicoli mentioned I also feel that Lara presents the most difficult puzzle for Floyd to solve at this stage
