The one thing Lara needs is...

Some upper torso movement.

Watching him today I noticed he was being more aggressive than usual, which is good. And the other thing that hit me was, that he always covers up (which he does pretty good). But covering up for 10/12 rounds and getting hit on the arms, it will take a toll later on in the fight and eventually get your arms tired.

But yea, if he moved his upper torso more to avoid shots instead of covering up and taking the shots, his D would be much better.

I disagree, he'll never be Pernell Whitaker, but he's moving his body just enough when he needs to. Shield defend is his style and it will always be that way, there's no point in changing that now.
He's very strong physically, so opponents punches on his guard are not really moving him, so there's no problem at him tiring because of that, his opponents are the ones that have to worry about getting tired with amount of punches they have to throw to penetrate that defence. Just look at Abraham, he was not moving his head at all, catching everything on his hands, yet he was the one who was going strong in later rounds knocking people out.
Problem with Lara is and always be getting too much into that shield defence when opponents are getting close to him, ends up getting outworked, but I think he's improving on that.

But hes been looking for fights at 160, how do you think that will hold up vs the bigger guys?

I'll tell you what Lara needs. He needs his promoters to handle him the same way they handle ginger.

He needs to continues to be that aggressive and he'll be fine but he might want to stop leaning in with his head or someone with an uppercut will take it
