Comments Thread For: Lara: I'll Fight GGG, Canelo Fights Cotto - Winners Meet!

[bojangles1987]

Am I the only guy who thinks Lara gives Golovkin a harder fight than Ginger?

I don't agree at all. Can't speak for anyone else. Golovkin would blast Lara easily IMO. Alvarez might make him think.

Canelo is wrong for Gennady in every possible way.

Actually a guy like GGG plays right into Canelo's strengths as a fighter. Golovkin more than likely will just be too powerful.

GGG fans: "no one wants to fight GGG"

Boxing fans: "lara said hell fight him"

GGG fans: "hes boring to watch doe. Doesnt bring money doe"




buncha hypocrites!

Ya' know?

[just the facts]

A harder fight? No, not at all. He may last longer because GGG will have to catch him while Canelo will stand and fight, but that's about all. Lara would be no challenge for Golovkin at all.

Based on what? That long list of murderous punchers and elite boxers GGG has on his resume?

[just the facts]

He's obviously faced credible opponents, just not elite opponents yet. Murray was a top ten MW who arguably beat Martinez, Geale who's fighting Cotto next was top ten, Macklin, Rubio and Stevens top ten. Hell, even Proksa was top ten at the time. All these guys were credible opponents when GGG faced them. Obviously what he's lacking is an elite fighter and a big name fighter, to no fault of his own though. He's tried to fight Martinez, Sturm, Cotto, Canelo, etc. He can only fight guys willing.

I guess your opinion of a credible opponent and mine differ greatly

And Lara with his 12 KOs is a murderous puncher? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! He would be like a flea on a tiger's back. Insignificant and annoying at most. All it would take is one punch from Golovkin and Lara would think his name was Laura.

Nah. Ward has the best style to beat GGG. I don't think moving away is the answer.

Lara has 75" reach, GGG 70". Moving away and staying on his bike, using his jab and left hand to score points is his best bet. Of course there will be scary parts in the fight, where Lara will get cornered and probably hurt/knocked down, but no one thinks it will be an easy fight. I just think that Lara can win, he won't win without a battle though or not getting hurt at all. He would have to box perfectly, which he is capable of doing. He can't come in with that inactivity crap like in the Canelo fight either.

I like Lara. He's not a easy night for anyone due to his style. He would at least get in the ring with GGG, which others won't do.

Lara Vs GGG, Canelo Vs Cotto...the winners fight. What's not to like?

If anyone will make GGG think, it's Lara. He'll frustrate him worse than Adama did with that jab. Canelo will make it a fight and likely get stopped before Lara does.
