How many rounds do you think Erislandy Lara could win against GGG?

[-MEGA-]

In a 16' ring? Zero. 20' maybe 2 or 3. I think GGG stops him though. If Angulo could put him down just Imagine what GGG would do

[BOXEO _]

Body shots! GGG felt those body shots last night. Lara's very accurate throwing to the body and he has good punching power. Could it slow GGG down? Maybe.

Man the ring vs angulo fight was hella small like the ring in monte carlo. Had it been a normal size ring Lara would have dominated even harder

Both guys aren't inside fighters, but Lara looks more uncomfortable when the opponent gets too close and his response is to shell up and circle. I think that habit will get him in trouble against GGG. I think Lara would focus too much on defense and not enough on offense. Lara was shelling up against Ishe Smith who can't punch for ****. He'll have success due to his speed/agility/southpaw stance, but I can't see him winning.

[John Locke]

3-4 at most, I think he'd start off well but slowly get broken down and stopped.

The perfect style for GGG is Andre Ward

Genuinely curious why you think that? I think he does too, I just think at some point he'd get caught.

Ward is strong enough to back him up and GGG doesn't like fighting going backwards. He also needs space to operate and will have trouble with Ward's smothering style and inside tactics. The little bit of success that Murray had early on was backing GGG up and smothering him. He looked very uncomfortable on the inside where Ward flourishes.

Lara might win a few rounds but I think Golovkin breaks him down and stops him in 6-8 rounds. Lara is not good enough defensively and definitely not active enough. Golovkin would have little problem closing the gap and landing bodyshots while Lara covers up.

Lara is also smaller than GGG, which makes his chances even slimmer. If he was a natural middleweight this fight would be close but I would still favor Golovkin.

Ward will smother and clinch all night long, presenting a difficult and exhausting fight for 3G. He's physically bigger, has quicker hands/feet, and is fundamentally solid. Ward is the only match-up where I will not hesitate to pick against GGG.
