    If Lara was a PPV worthy name the fight would have been signed ages ago

    too bad boxing is business first and foremost



    Not sure if he could give a fight, but he sure as hell knows how to spoil one. Any Molina fight is a potential shitty match.

    That's actually a good fight too. Another one for the Mexico vs PR rivalry.

    It's time to bring in Lara! Lara is now the direct challenger to Alvarez at #3 spot, make it happen!

    Lara wins, no doubt!

    A Super Six Super Welterweight Tourney :shock: whoa!!!

    That would be awesome!!!!

    Remember Trout is fighting Rodriguez so well have to wait for the winner of that one. Lara and Molina deserve a shot at Canelo, in my honest opinion. I would be very surprised if either one get that Sept.15th slot. Even though I am sick and tired of Canelo facing guys coming off losses ( Cintron & Mosley ), I admit I wouldn't make much fuss about seeing Canelo vs Cotto, Being that Cotto gave Mayweather such a good fight.

    But please do not bring Margo or Mayorga or some 147 up in weight.

    :good Yes he did.

    That's why I said I wouldn't make such a fuss if they put Canelo up against Cotto even though he just suffed a loss.

    But It will make for a nice PPV think about it. MEX vs PR and Cotto get a shot at avenging his brothers loss to Canelo. GBP will just have to gamble with how did this loss to Money affect Cotto mentaly.

    You're right Lara has no draw. But he's still is very deserving of a shot against Canelo.

    Lara is high risk but low reward.

    Cotto thinks he won the fight buddy. He's going to be fine mentally.

    You're correct, the PPV would crack 1mil buys IMO :good Thing is, Cotto isn't signing with Golden boy, and most of Oscar's eggs are in Alvarez's basket now that Ortiz has had his shot. Mayweather won't be around much longer, if at all.

    Canelo will be looked after, and his first really tough fight will come with a GBP fighter IMO.

    I'm sure he felt he won the fight, but after the dust settled and he had time to review the fight and see as to why he came up short in rounds he felt he should of won. He could have a different opinion.

    It could quite possible create doubts in his mind, Maybe not, personaly I think he should be proud of what he was able to do that night. But sometimes these fighters can be their biggest critics and hard on themselves. You know?
