    The only guy I think Lara can beat at 160 is Eubank Jr.:lol:

    Depends on the route they decide to take; The hard or easy path.

    If they copy the K2 plan, then they can start from the bottom, build wins and get into title contention.

    If the networks sabotage Lara as they generally do, then they'll probably want him to start at the top with someone like Quillin, Lee or Eubanks so K2 can possibly eliminate two birds with one stone.

    Either way I think he does as well as expected and works his way up to the Gucci brand.

    Please.... Billy Joe will win it far more demonstrably the second time around. Maybe even by KO.

    Eh, I think he can beat Quillin, but I don't agree with people thinking he'll make an easy transition. It'll be tough for Lara. He should stay at 154 lbs. because I don't think he belongs at 160. He gets wrecked by Golovkin, btw.

    I think Quillin KO's him too, he's going to get wrecked by most of the guys at MW, he has little power and his punch will be even less effective at 160, most of the guys will walk through his counters and rough him up and stop him with relative ease.

    Not so well, I would imagine. Most of the guys at 160 would walk right through him.

    That right uppercut damn sure wasn't no pitty-pat.
    Gucci Golovkin would have been KO'ed by that punch. :yep

    The uppercut is a hell of a punch and Canelo throws a good one.
    He learned from the best.

    Couldn't knockdown Rhodes or Matthew Hatton. Couldn't knockdown or hurt Cotto, yet he ko's a fighter who has never been down amateur or pro.

    Hydrogen handed Monroe managed to mark up Golovkin's grill.

    A clean shot from Canelo might cause some seriously damage to Soft-touch GiGi.
