Is or Is Not Lara a Quality Fight at 160

[bigjavi973]

Lara obvioulsy doesn't have to fight. Hes just so special that just him running mouth is good enough for him to get a fight vs a champion in a division hes never fought at.

Hes special, and don't you forget that.

Its hilarious watching these guys applaud Lara and put him on this throne. But ask them when they want to see him fight Floyd.

See... typical pac fan who became a GGG fan

Poor pac fan:



Are you talking about the same Murray who couldn't beat a recently injured martinez?

"He was never fully recovered from the knee surgery," said DiBella, noting that the injury made it very hard for Martinez to plant his feet. "The knee was OK early in the training camp but it wasn't perfect. But with three weeks left in camp, it got much worse. He probably would have postponed the fight if was in a normal arena. He was damaged goods going in against Murray."

But for some odd reason people here give all the credit in the world to murray (cuz some say he was robbed, I had it a draw... if ref actually counted the KD SD win for murray imo) who couldn't beat an obvious injured martinez. That murray?

So when Murray fought Sergio, Sergio was injured and damaged goods but when Cotto fought him after Murray, Sergio miraculously was 100% healthy and a fantastic win for Cotto, the best of his career.

Got it.

Monroe has fights at middleweight. How many does Lara have?

0. How many did Rosado have?

[bigjavi973]

Monroe moved well, was more agile and quick and threw plenty of sharp counters. Didn't really help him.

So you saying that Monroe Jr is more agile & quick than Lara???

And who has Lara beat? Angulo is his best win, and that was at 154.

I believe someone already answered that. Even if Angulo was his only win, it's still better than Bumroe Jr's entire resume combined.

Your counter was something about how he didn't beat Williams because the official cards said so.

You're not really a poster to be taken seriously.

Explain why Lara is better than Murray then. Jabbing backwards isn't something special.

But standing straight up with a high guard taking punches is better?

You can't be serious?

The same limited Canelo that GGG is so desperate to fight? It was a close fight, I scored it a draw, haven't watched again. Struggled with Angulo? Ok....he then busted his eye up and made him quit.

Watch Murray and Lara fight. Martin Murray is a straight up fighter with a high guard, slow hands, slow feet. Just painfully average. Lara moves well, is far more agile and quick, throws sharp counters. He'd be the most skilled fighter Golovkin has ever been in the ring with by some distance.

Like I said, stop watching boxing if you think Martin Murray is better than Erislandy Lara.

That's Dirk's response to the same exact question.

Here's your response to that:

Monroe moved well, was more agile and quick and threw plenty of sharp counters. Didn't really help him.

Are you really that serious!?

[bigjavi973]

Who compared them? Nobody. I simply stated that he is tied for 2nd with the most title defenses. Thats not a comparison between to fighters. Dude was trying to say GGG has accomplished nothing in the sport, while Lara has had a great career. He couldn't have been more wrong if he tried. GGG hasn't had a great career, but hes accomplished plenty more than Lara has.

List those accomplishments of GGG

Then next to that list the accomplishments of Lara

You know since you are the one bringing that up. And don't respond by saying some other bullshit. List those accomplishments of both those fighters.

Got it.

When did I mention that??? Quote it, please.

You're a special snowflake.

14 title defenses? We're counting "regular champions" as champions now? I must've missed that memo.
