Mayweather needs to fight Lara..Bottom line..

[Ringlife]

I think the only way this fight happens is if GBP makes Lara vs Canelo in March on PPV. I think it will sell pretty good on PPV. If Lara beats Canelo the fans and the media will push for a Mayweather vs Lara fight in Sept with a stacked undercard. Mayweather vs Lara love that match up right now.

Again, I wouldn't compare what Lara did to Trout to what he could do against Mayweather. Trout is slick but was a tad too slow to get to Lara. Not only is Mayweather quicker than Trout, but he has the presence to see Lara's counters coming way better than Trout did last night.

It would be an interesting fight and would love to see it. I just don't think it would be that difficult for Mayweather.

But you forget. Trout has the better jab than Floyd.

Floyd's really not that much quicker, feet wise than Trout at 154. He's a wading fighter at 154. His upper body is still quick, but it's gonna be a battle of foot work. Who can get in and out on the other man?

Lara's reach also plays a huge role, since he's a slickster with that reach.

Floyds already beaten the #1 guy at 154 twice now. How long is Canelo gonna not fight Lara? Floyds a WW, he doesn't have to fight Lara.

Actually, Floyd fought the Ring champion at 154 once, the #1 guy once, and the #3 guy(DLH) once. Also, they were all title holders, no vacant titles.

With that said, Mayweather vs Lara has been a dream fight for me for a couple of years now. Lara is like a southpaw Floyd, but bigger and more powerful, just as accurate, just as fast, a little less defensive but just as elusive with the movement. Reach for Lara is also longer at 75" vs 73", something Floyd had never faced in his career, that I know of. I think only De La Hoya had the same reach as Floyd. But has never been a reach disadvantage, ever. The guy has MW reach. Not even tall Hernandez and Corrales at 5' 11" had a reach advantage, they were around 70 inches but not quite 73 like Floyd.

The only reason I mention reach is because for Floyd and Lara and their styles, reach is very important for potshotting and doing that hit and not get hit style. Wouldn't be easy at all.

I would put a schedule for Lara like this: Molina rematch, Canelo and Mayweather, in that same order.

Yeah, he avenges his "loss" to Molina, beats Canelo, and by that time, Floyd won't want any part of him.

LMAO! So yall think Floyd's gonna duck this bum who drew against Molina and Martirosyan, almost got wrecked by slow ass Angulo and used excessive footwork (ran) against feather-fisted Trout???

Someone didn't watch the Martirosyan fight. He was landing some serious ass shots on the guy, and the ref stopped the fight. He was on his way to clearly winning on the score cards, after he figured him out.

He made Angulo quit. PEDs/Jake Lamotta version of Angulo.

He out boxed a boxer with a good jab. It was beyond boring, but hey, styles make fights.

P.S. I wanna see Floyd in there with those same guys and please tell me, he has the same success. Make my day.

Guys like Martirosyan don't have a big name, but they're serious dudes that are much bigger than Floyd, and would crack his ****. Trust me. Angulo would just dog his ass.

There's no way Floyd fights Lara.

[TonitosWay]

Why the shade towards Lara? All he did was out on a boxing exhibition.

[BIGBOXINGFAN]

If you guys don't want to see Lara Vs Mayweather there is some type of weird *******ual agenda. I'm sorry but you guys can go watch WWE. Real boxing fans want to see the best fight the best. I'm sorry I'm not trying to be a ****phobe but let's keep it real, let's keep the *******uality out of boxing stop worshiping fighters. I don't want to hear this "boxing is a business BS"

What the h-ll are you talking about?
Now lara is the best cuz he beat Trout?

The same Lara who many thought lost to Carlos Molina? Oh ok
