    What do you think?

    I mean, Floyd is going back once again to 147. And Lara and Vanes fought to a draw and Vanes was not exactly in serious consideration as the best making Lara seem like a step below as well. Cotto just lost to Trout.

    So if not the winner tonight, who is?

    Well, if it wasn't for Carlos Molina's bad luck, he would arguably be the #1 right now. If Carlos Molina beats Ishe Smith, he will be on the road to becoming a top candidate. I'd say Carlos Molina beats Austin Trout, Erislandy Lara, Canelo, and Alfredo Angulo. Anyways, I'd say whoever wins does become number #1.

    actually yer.. i dont think sergio plans on making 154 so i wouldent count him personally but GGG should face the winner.. whoever wins i would crown undisputed 154 champ

    Sergio last fought at 154lbs against Cintron and GGG has fought at 160 lbs his whole Pro career.

    GGG hasn't shown he can make 154 lbs yet and he had the chance too in last two fights.

    I say if Canelo wins he's the best because he beat the guy that beat Cotto
    If Trout wins him and Floyd are joint top because they both have Cotto, no one can tell if Canelo is better than Cotto yet
    If your not counting Floyd then yes
    Although Lara beats them both

    Lara doesn't have the work rate to beat trout or Canelo.

    Which is why he gets draws with bums that his fans say he will completely outclass, saying that Lara was gonna school Vanes handle him and KO him with ease, the only guy who looks troubled in there was lara... dude couldn't take out ****ing vanes, how he gonna take trout and Canelo

    gtfo

    little ****ing freddy hernandez who Berto KO'd in one rounds made it a tough night and uncomfortable for lara
