Comments Thread For: Gennadiy Golovkin vs. Erislandy Lara Ordered By The WBA

[Boxing-1013]

Lara's style is all wrong for Golovkin as the last time he faced a skilled southpaw he looked terrible. If Kassim Ouma gave him problems then Lara would box circles around him only thing GGG has is the punch but Lara has shown to be resilient and durable.

In 10 years GGG has only fought 3 light punching southpaws in Monroe, Proksa and Fuchigami. 3 people nobody will even remember in 10 years.

Ouma stood and traded with GGG for 10 rounds, then the wear of all of that, broke Ouma's face and he didn't fight again for 3 years and GGG got a KO victory.

That isn't a good gameplan to follow lol

Remember the reason the fight didn't happen the first time? It was because of Lara's demands.

Lara was begging for the fight... and then also demanded a career-high payday on top of it. That's not how it works. If you demand to fight someone, who is the A-side, you don't also get to call the shots on how much you make.

Somehow the knuckle draggers/ cave dwellers in here thought that Golovkin should oblige a 154 lber, with multiple losses on his record, who brought nothing to the table, and give them a massive payday.

Lara could've gotten the fight had he accepted the same rate as the other opponents. But he knew the risk.

People who want to hate, don't care about the actual details

LOL, they order Lara now since all of his mobility is going so the fight will look like Lara vs Hurd. That's not a favorable fight for Lara. What happens to the GGG vs Andrade unification? It's not like they aren't on the same platform and it's a more brutal matchup for GGGimmick.

For some reason I was thinking this was about Andrade.

GGG hurts and stops Lara if they fight, although I pretty much expect GGG to retire after the Canelo fight.

It's actually the opposite. GGG loves it for you to give him space and fight on the outside this way he can cut the ring and extend on his shots. The way to give him issues is to go to the body and on the inside like canelo did in the 2nd fight and what sergey did. Ouma was losing almost every rd and got stopped. Ouma fights nothing like lara and was pressing ggg on the inside. Lara fights like neither and can't fight on the inside.

Ouma was not losing every round that's bull**** Gennady got the stoppage but he was eating shots all night and looked terrible until then. Southpaw stance is southpaw stance Lara didn't used to fight like Ouma but now that he's older he doesn't use as much movement and throws shots with more behind them. GGG has a ****ty resume anyways list who he beat that is going to leave behind a legacy in the sport.

Ouma stood and traded with GGG for 10 rounds, then the wear of all of that, broke Ouma's face and he didn't fight again for 3 years and GGG got a KO victory.

That isn't a good gameplan to follow lol

Yeah imagine that a 154 lber going toe to toe with GGG like I said HBO hypejob he can knock out these 154 lbers and nobodies at 160 but who did he really beat in his career?

[Cypocryphy]

This is a bad fight for Lara. Lara can't move as before, and this is going to be a very bad beating for Lara. It's not going past the sixth round.

[memphis mook]

Without reading the article I have to give an emphatic shout of yes !!! The boxing Gods have spoken. Now let Canelo deal with either Charlo, Benevidez, Andrade, or the boogeyman Bivol. Ducking seasons almost over with

Edit: Got my hopes up too high SMH. We still get a fight well past its due date. Lara and GGG is much more intriguing at this point considering GGGs resume is shyte IMO even with the win I scored for him over Cinnamon. The battle of two fighters in Lara and GG that should have a win apiece over Canelo in the same age bracket is worth watching

[BodyBagz]

GGGroupies can't use age as an excuse

[stealthradon]

Yeah, Nelo is fighting third time the guy he ducked. And, he fought the guy at his prime in 2014 GGG ducked.

Nelo's standards >>> 10x GGG career

remember that time when Canelo paid GGG not to fight him?

[Silence]

remember that time when Canelo paid GGG not to fight him?

Show us proof?
