    :lol: Yup. I't seems like he might of gotten avoided, but if he moves up defensive fighters tend to be less defensive, forced to fight alittle more, and so we get less marathons. Maybe Lara can get a 2nd chance and redeem himself with fans by facing guys like Jacobs, Quillin, Korobov, The Charlo Bros, Sturm, or Geale, all winnable and potentially good fights.

    He has the potential and will finally be indicted, but not today.
    Although he beat Williams and was robbed, and then beat Canelo and was robbed again, He still has much to prove before thinking about the HOF.

    However, today the HOF is a joke. Who knows how much more of a joke it will be in 5-10 years.

    Sufficient indignation has been expressed already, thus saving me the trouble of a reply.

    OH WAIT....

    No. He hasn't done enough. He has the makings to be a top ten p4p but he's not making the fights he needs to live up to his potential.

    Was Lara even a legit champion? He literally hasn't done anything in his career.

    Might be, in time, but as of now, NO.
