    I swear to God YOU better not say Khan
    Dude stop asking me questions I already answered. I'm not here to repeat myself. If u can't read then that's a personal problem. The point is Lara is one of a few legit options. He isn't the best. Its not that difficult.

      1. Lara is a far more credible opponent than Amir Khan
      2. Lara would be a significantly better win for Floyd than Amir Khan
      3. The Lara fight would be an easy fight to make
      4. If Floyd did dominate Lara, then it would be a more boring fight than the Khan fight because of Lara's style.

      No.4 should not be enough to overrule the first 3. Lara is a legitimate opponent for Floyd, and he poses a legitimate threat. Yes, it's possible that the fight could be pretty dull if Floyd proves much too much for Lara, but it's still better than seeing Floyd toy with someone like Khan who has no hope at all on any level.

      Lara would prove a stiffer test of Floyd's skills, and outclassing a guy like Lara is a far, far more impressive addition to Floyd's legacy than beating a guy who's not rated that highly by anyone. On the other hand, if Lara's in the fight then the competitiveness alone will make it exciting.

      Lara's not some beast, he's just a very skilled fighter who is worthy of sharing the ring with the best competition. Khan, with all due respect, is not.

      Lara is OK, but he's not VERY skilled. I do agree he's a better opponent than Amir Khan. But beating Lara wouldn't be significantly better than Amir Khan. Lara isn't a proven elite fighter, and neither is Khan.

      Lara nor Khan does nothing for his legacy. The only fight that would 'enhance' his legacy is a fight with Pacquaio. Lara could be a legacy enhancing opponent if he beats Canelo.

        lol... thats funny.


        But because of how precise Lara is and how much pop he packs... it makes the fight interesting. If he catches Floyd defending too much, he could pick a hole in his defenses with that accuracy. To beat Lara... Floyd would have to press the attack and walk him down and make Lara gunshy...

        Floyd walking down the bigger more powerful man....plus a southpaw... Big stylistic problem for Floyd. He could probably do it, but I doubt he would ever commit to such a fight.

          I don't even think Bradley really deserves the fight (he didn't really beat Pacquaio). His key win is just Marquez. Garcia isn't champion at Welterweight and hasn't beaten anyone of significance there. And of course, Khan doesn't deserve the fight either. Only one deserving of the fight is Pacquaio. Everyone else doesn't really deserve it.

                Sure I would love to pick Floyd's next fight. However, I am not going to complain one bit about who he fights next. Khan is fine. He could fight Humberto Soto and I wouldn't complain. After Canelo, he deserves to pick anyone. Are there more exciting options than Khan. Sure. Lara, Thurman, Golovkin, Pacquiao, Garcia, Bradley.... and so on. I think his next choice might insight a riot if he isn't going for the big one!

                  And Martirosyan. That was a fake draw.

                  There's no one at 154 whose done better work at 154 than Lara right now. Maybe Molina.

                    He won't answer that question cause there is no answer.
