I'd say Lara and Canelo. I wouldn't bet on either actually beating Golovkin though.Comment

the most similar style he fought was angulo. lara was on the ropes and eating body shots against a guy who is slower, has a worse chin than golovkin, less pwoerful, and has no jab. what's he going ot do againt the best jab in boxing, and bigger punches, and a better chin, and a bigger man? and long arms, too. golovkin is strong middleweight.
if he were at his best, i'd give the best shot to mayweather. he's the only great on that list, and the only guy who might have enough to deal with golovkin for 12 rounds and score enouhg points. the rest of those guys would take a beating, and lara is right up there with him.
i think you'd need to go back a few years for him to be able to pull it off, but there's no doubt he'd make a fight of it.
you guys have to realize that lara cannot fight any other way than the way he fought against angulo. he picked spots in teh middle of the ring and had success, but he'd immediately run to the ropes. you're not going to take a career amateur and teach him how to fight professionally from the middle of the ring, or fight inside, or hold a strong guy like golovkin when he does not want to stop punching.
lara vs angulo unfolded the only way lara could have fought. that's horrible, horrible news if you're fighting gennady golovkin.Last edited by New England; 12-08-2015, 09:07 AM.Comment

Stop name-calling you alt troll. I didn't call you anything.Originally posted by STAX ON DECK View Post
I doubt Canelo because he has never fought at 160, and has made heavy weather of almost every legit opponent he has had (Trout, Lara, Mayweather, Cotto), Canelo could easily have 3 losses and a draw on his record if he wasn't well-connected and people wouldn't be speaking of him in the way they do.
But he's supposed to step up and go the distance with Golovkin...I'll believe it when I see it.Last edited by Weebler I; 12-08-2015, 09:26 AM.Comment

If we are talking if they fought next. Canelo is the most competitive imo. If we are talking in the next year or so, I would go with Andrade, assuming he gets active and fights some good competition. Also as to your comparison of Canelo to GGG. They are almost nothing alike imo.Originally posted by -Kev- View PostComment
