Serious question to GGG fans. Is Lara a threat?

[DoubleLeftH00k]

I've never seen so many fans get so upset, bent out of shape and angry at Lara for challenging Golovkin.

I think GGG beats Lara and probably stops him.

Let's put HBO to the side; hypothetically speaking, be honest please, do you GGG fans feel Lara is a threat?

For me at 160? No lara wont stand a chance againts ggg
Ggg pressures him and knocks him out, ggg cuts ring good

If u aint got the power to stop ggg from coming towards u better throw in the towel to save urself
At 154 it will be 40% chance lara wins

I like both fighters, and this would be a good fight I'd like, but it's not an easy fight to make at all, and impossible for Golovkin's next fight.

Besides, we shouldn't be pushing these two into a ring together. They have spent years trying to get fights within their own goddamn divisions, and boxing fans should be demanding those fights. Stop giving the guys who won't fight them an excuse.

I'm not sure about you but I loved the Paul Williams - Margarito fight back in 07.... Neither fighter could get anyone in the ring with them. Paul was either contemplating going up or sticking around; can't remember.

Either way, Williams and Margarito couldn't get a fight so they fought each other. I loved the fight

Lara would likely frustrate the hell out of Golovkin but I think would eventually get walked down and stopped.

Those two were in the same division.

Again, I would like Golovkin/Lara. I'd prefer they get the fights that are easier to make and that we've wanted to see for a couple years.

No one is upset, people are calling out Lara on the bs, he knows the fight has no chance in getting made, he's faking it.

Anyone is a threat, but Golovkin is great at cutting the ring off, devestating body puncher, great finisher, underated defense, and a good chin. Tough matchup for anyone.

I am a fan. I just want to see him fight. I don't care who. My preference would be Kirkland right now. I think them two fighting would be a complete war. If Kirkland cannot happen right now, just find someone and get them in there.

I think the Kirkland and Golovkin double header is going to be fantastic. I just love brutal fighters who tear opponents up. They have that inner savagery about them. They bring pain.

I refuse to get caught up regular drama that takes place in here. Calling out, ducking, promotional feuds etc. Haters hating on an entertaining fighter simply because the fighters fans are too loud. It gets old.

I agree Dean...

Do you feel Lara is a threat?

I agree Dean...

Do you feel Lara is a threat?

With his style, yes he is. He also shows enough vulnerability though that I personally think Golovkin will get him. Lara gets sloppy and caught at times. He had a hard time dealing with Angulo's pressure so I think Golovkin would wear him down sooner and stop him. 8th or 9th round.

[Deevel916]

Sure he can be a threat, but lets not forget that Angulo who is much slower and less skilled than GGG was getting up in Lara's azz up until his eye blew up. I think GGG takes lara out!

[komodo]

I think Lara has huge potential and he could cause GGG or anyone else for that matter some major problems but he does also have his vulnerabilities.

It's a shame that Lara isn't more of draw otherwise we would have seen him in bigger fights already.
