    “I hope that it happens, 100 percent…I hope that they work on it,” Lara said to RingTV. “But the reality is that if Canelo doesn’t fight me, then Canelo is scared. There are no ifs ands or buts about it. If Canelo doesn’t step up to the plate like he did against Austin Trout, then he’s a joke, plain and simple. He’s a joke.”

    Lara isn't even on the Alvarez-Angulo card, that's a possible sign that they may cruise away from Lara.

    He might as well wait for a shot at Floyd. It's not gonna happen.

    He has a better chance waiting for Alvarez than Mayweather.

    True. but even with a ten times better chance the odds of it happening aren't good.

    Alvarez already got his 0 taken away, I don't see why they will continue to overprotect him. I mean, his next fight should have been against Lara if you ask me. Angulo is a risky opponent yet he's coming off a loss(ironically to Lara). Why take that risk when he could have gone for Lara who provides a serious reward in return?

    He's going to wait for the rest of his life then. Nobody wants to see anyone fight Lara. The world wouldn't blink if Lara never fought again.

    Gift vs Vanes, and Molina, put on his ass twice from a one dimensional Angulo and well on his way to a l before the fluke injury, hottest fighter @ 154 my ass

    How about he clean up his trash before he calls Canelo out....

    Lara is too fragile...Canelito would tear him a new one.

    canelo is a fraud. in due time, he'll just be another in floyd's resume that people will laugh at.
