Lara: "I'm Cuban, and I have fought the best. I earned my props in the ring, not by beating bums on a Mexican street corner."
This fight will be better than expected. I love the trash talk from Lara he's really trying to sell the fight and himself.
Alvarez is gonna knock some sense into this guy, can't knock his heart though. Alvarez is a rapidly improving fighter, Lara is basically prime and has yet to show these supreme skills everyone's claims he has. Lara is not Mayweather or even close so thinking Alvarez losing to him means losing to Lara is dumb imo, and Alvarez looked better against Angulo/Trout then Lara did.
Lara is doing exactly what he should be doing. This is Professional boxing, not so brawl on a street corner in Juarez. He should be hyping the fight and then use those superior Cuban boxing skills to whip that ****** ass.
I just dont understand why everyone thinks this is gonna be a landslide for Lara. He's not, I repeat he's not Floyd. He's a hell of a lot easier to hit than Floyd and has been tagged and hurt by slower fighters than Canelo. we'll see what happens.
True, he's neither Myweather or Rigo, but he is also no Angulo. I expect a tough fight with Lara busting up Canelo's soft face with jabs and straight right hands between rounds 8-10. :yep
Lara is one of the lesser talented cubans he's not like rigo or gamboa at all. He's more like Solis. You guys are overrating his boxing skills big time. He just isn't that good. Anyway if it goes to decision canelo will win.
Lara is the second coming of Zab Judah. Going to be in for a rough night with a guy who can bang a bit.
