Lara's a good fighter but he moves too much. Uses too much energy....he is lucky Angulo wasnt more focused in his attacked and kinda punched himself out like he did against Kirkland. I was liking Lara against Canelo previously but he moved too much for me to pick him if that match were to happen. He would need to be a lil more stationary or body work would do him in. He can take Cotto though.

B-Hop dont take those kinds of risks...and he would make Stevenson look amateurish. I have said it here in the past few months....Ward exposed the technical weaknesses of Dawson. Dawson beats guy with athleticism but he is lazy with his fighting and he leaves himself opennames mu xedich could be crucial against an athletic puncher like Stevenson. B-Hop can make a living capitalizing on Dawson's mistakes.

I agree with you that B Hop would make him look amateurish but in his prime, this version wouldnt be busy enough to keep him off of him imo. Hopkins is my fav fighter but he needs to fight a certain type of fighter at this point in his career. His last L was to Dawson breh or did you get their names confused.

I wouldnt say Angulo quit....that shyt just probably hurt like hell. It was something that when it happened, it broke his whole train of thought. Lara fukked him up with those last few punches.
