Likewise brooo may the best man win! Hopefully it's a war and sets a trilogy in motion!! Like pac vs marquez lol but not 5 fights

One of the beauties of this fight, especial for the neutral fan, is that it's 50-50. But I have this feeling that we'll have an idea where it's going early, within the first two or three rounds. The way I see it, if Canelo doesn't impose himself on Lara early, it's Landy's fight. If Alvarez gets to Lara in the first half, I'm going to get nervous. lol May the best man win.

I have a feeling Lara's going to be a little nervous in the beginning. If nothing drastic happens to him, as a result of nerves, he should be ok.

And that's precisely why I tend to agree with northstar. Canelo's been there, done that. This is an experience Lara has never enjoyed. I don't care how many international events he's taken part in. This is *THE SHOW*. I can't imagine the kind of pressure a guy new to this must be under. I also agree that Landy should be okay once the fight gets going. It's that build up, the wait, the anticipation, that's killer.

There are excuses, then there are reasons. Which is which depends on your perspective. In this case, it seems Mexicans consider these excuses, while Cubans consider them reasons. lol

I've heard a lot of things regarding Lara's condition for the Molina fight. If they're true, it would explain the lethargic performance he put on. But I don't really care about any of that, because I don't know for certain what the truth is. What I do know is that the Molina fight was no robbery. It was a close fight that, like Garfios said, no one really deserved to win. I've always said that if anyone should've gotten the nod, it was Molina.

It always cracked me up that many of the same guys who thought Molina got "robbed" say Landy lost to P. Will. If you want to know what a real robbery looks like, look no further than that fight.

Casamayor vs jose armando santa cruz was the worst robbery!!! Look into that one.
