      Floyd has never looked his usual 'unbeatable' self when faced with a southpaw counterpuncher hence why he avoids them so much. He isn't as comfortable facing them. He prefers slow flat-footed guys who will go to him or remain static and throw volume

      Lara isn't an aggressive, one handed southpaw like Guererro or Ortiz. He has everything stylistically to not only give Floyd hell but potentially beat him.
      I don't care who you are you don't want to get in a chessmatch with an elite Cuban.
      They stil lost by wide margins. Its as if you are basing "problems" on small stretches of these fights that didn't affect the overall outcome of the fight.

      The fights floyd has his most problems in are not so much lefties as they are the first time he fights at the weight. Corley, like Castillo, was floyd's 1st fight at that weight. Perhaps that played as much a role in the "problems" as the style. Judah was the 1st or 2nd fight at 147. ODH, his 1st at 154.

      I agree that Lara has the attributes to give floyd a tough fight and very well could beat him. I just think the notion floyd has "problems" with southpaws has been exaggerated.

        Guerrero wasn't at 80+ punches per round against Berto and definitely wasn't against Floyd.

          Lara loses to Floyd.

          Bradley loses to Floyd.

          Khan loses to Floyd.

          Maidana loses to Floyd.

          Pacquiao loses to Floyd.


          I mean really what is the argument for? They ALL lose spare me the 2 minutes out of 36 where Lara "troubles" him. Fucc outta here man.

            Its funny. They say he should fight pure boxers but back in 06 when he was rumoured to fight Cory Spinks at 154.

            NOT ONE PERSON ON THIS SITE WANTED TO SEE IT. FACT.


            Thats why I laughed when Trout was "the guy" and Im laughing now that Lara is "the guy". Jokes bro.


            Cong**** on that title. My wolverines stuck in the mud right now.

              Hatton wasn't at 80+ when he fought Collazo.

                lara dominated trout, i see what you're saying but i have hard time writing off someone like lara against another boxer. floyd probably beats him but i guarantee its not a white wash

                  He does have a 3 inch reach advantage and a 1 inch height advantage
                  And it the more natural 154 pound fighter

                  I just don't see anything from him that makes me think he could beat Floyd

                  Did you enjoy Lara-Trout?
                  I can appreciate the technical aspects of any fight, but lets not act like that was a fight of the year candidate. Neither was Mayweather-Canelo

                  My point was that Lara can be outboxed. No triangle theory. We've seen he can be outboxed. We've never seen anyone outbox Floyd and those that have tried have failed miserably. I think Lara does a bit better than most due to size but who doesn't have a size advantage on Floyd?
                  He certainly has the power advantage.

                  I did enjoy Lara vs Trout, yes.

                  We haven't seen Lara ouboxed. Molina didn't outbox Lara, even if you think he beat Lara (I don't think he did), it was by spoiling, not outboxing.

                  But whatever, you're entitled to your opinion.

                    Just because you think Mayweather wins every fight ever in history doesn't mean that certain fights aren't more compelling and clearly better than others you shameless arse licking cretin.

                      Yes I remember. Hilarious stuff man. More than anything, I love how some are insinuating that he's "running from Lara".....oooooooook.

                      Anyways, FSU back! I silently rooted for MU this season since one of my kids plays there but Gardner just didn't play well last season. But I was happy to see Jehu Chesson eventually start, now I'm hoping he gets more passes thrown his way this season.
