I didn't see anyone talking about this fight, so I figured I'd start a thread. I really think this is a bad matchup for Canelo. Canelo is going to have problems with this slick southpaw that is like Trout V2. People keep talking about the difference between their performances vs Angulo, but Canelo is not super aggressive like Angulo and they will be in a 22' ring, which will benefit Lara. If he tries to box with Lara like he did with Mayweather, Canelo is in trouble. I see value in Lara +145, as I believe he is the better boxer. My only issue is that I can't see Lara getting a decision against Golden Boy's big star/cash cow, unless he completely dominates. Especially after watching Lara vs P. Williams, I don't have any confidence in the crooked judges.
Let me know what you guys think.
