    Lara barely made 155 last time but he sure looked fine, at least the way I saw it.. :think

    Anyone interested in this match-up? Pacquiao is not as strong as Alvarez so I assume Lara would try to engage.. Or he won't.. Mayweather vs Lara only promises a boring match-up due to their style but not if it's Pacquiao.. Lara should be fine doing 150..

    Let me hear your thoughts..

    Who wins and why?

    Vote and discuss.. :deal

    I voted Pacquiao by TKO,,... He'll break both Lara's ankle and stop him late,,... Pacquiao has the best ankle-breaking moves in the sport......

    Interesting fight. Lara is a little big. But Pacquiao has beaten bigger men.

    Lara SD. Lack of activity shall give him the benefit of the doubt but it will be an ugly fight with Lara using movement while barely throwing and Pacquiao trying to stalk lara whilst barely landing at Lara.

    Lara imo. Pac has lost that aura about him now, quite easy to envision him losing these days.

    Lara beats him. Pac is a lot smaller and not as heavy handed as Canelo. Lara would stay in the pocket for longer and counter him.

    Lara is not a good matchup for Pacquiao. Maybe close UD for Lara.

    Pacquiao would quit from leg cramps caused by chasing the cuban Forrest Gump around.

    Lara outpoints Pacquiao just like he outpointed Canelo .

    Manny at this point of his career can not deal with a NATURAL strong 154 pounder whos fast with a frustrating style .

    Lara 116/112 . Manny might even taste the canvas .
