    What are your thoughts on this fight and could you see an upset happening? I think Lara is gonna knock Canelo CLEAN OUT.

    Lara hasn't knocked anyone but Ronald Hearns clean out lately, I doubt he can do that to Canelo.

    The way I see it, Lara might have to get a knock-out to win. I keep thinking about the trash score-cards in Canelo/Trout.

    I'm expecting Lara to win this by decision though also highly expect him to be robbed if it goes the distance.

    The fight can't be labeled an upset either way. It's a fifty-fifty proposition

    Not unless Lara turns it up and puts Canelo under constant pressure, making him stay busy the entire round.
    I figure he'll be content to fight at Canelo's pace.

    Lara has a better chance of koing Canelo then Canelo has of koing Lara.

    Other than Cotto's brother wobbling Canelo, I've never seen him close to hurt, not as bad as Lara was by Perro.

    I think Lara will need to clearly show he is a class above Canelo to get the decision. I'm not sure he can do that. But, I expect this to be a very competitive fight.

    Swing rounds will likely go to Canelo. If Lara is able to pull it off, he deserves nothing but praise. If Canelo outclasses Lara, he should be considered the real deal.

    Lara is a good fighter, but he's not as slick as he thinks he is and some people make him out to be. Perro was beating him up pretty bad at times before the stoppage. I favor Canelo to win, but I wouldn't be surprised if Lara had a great night and pulled out a decision (he's not getting a KO).
