Really don't matter what we thing because that is not how fights are won, it is really no legit reason NOT to make this fight to be honest

They were offered the fight, Sanchez said no.

Originally posted by Public_Enemy View PostI wouldn't mind seeing the fight becuase it would be a good style clash. However, I think GGG stops him. Lara is a really talented fighter but there are things about the matchup that concern me.
GGG has a clear size advantage and power advantage.
GGG is able to cut off the ring well. He'll be able to cut off Lara's exit routes and he also can throw a nice hook to catch Lara on the way out.
GGG is also one of the top body punchers in the game and Lara leaves his body exposed often while covering up to protect his head.
It bothers me that Lara just shells up when he gets cornered and allows his opponent to throw big shots to his body. Thats a no no against GGG. I think GGG's size, power and body work will wear Lara down.
There are some pros for Lara as well. He will be able to land the straight left and use his speed to get off first. The jab will be an important weapon for him as well.

Lara has been vocal about wanting that fight, Loeffler approached Sanchez about it and he flat out said no. It's pretty straightforward.

Originally posted by HeroBando View PostI doubt it, depends on TBA. If they're gonna pay 1.5m+ for a no hoper he better bring something, like a belt or fans. Anyway I'd love to see this as a mando defense. He's now got 3 belts to defend and Lara is a waste of a voluntary
A win over Lara has way more meaning than Wade or Monroe Jr. Even at a size disadvantage.
Lara wants to move to 160 and fight the man. The man should answer...the way they want people to answer for him.
