I don't think Lara would stop dancing against GGG, he would outbox him EASY.

Somewhat disappointing night...all good fighters, but none stood out as exceptional. I had thought Jermall might, but I was wrong. Lara did win as I expected, but (if not for the bogus referee call) only by a round or two, and I suspect he'll be hurting worse than Vanes over the next week. I think any of the winners would be close competitors with Canelo, but I'd give Canelo a narrow edge at this point. I don't think any of them present a challenge to GGG (less than 10% chance, though due to styles, I think Canelo would have maybe a 25% chance).

Originally posted by JUNIABOY View PostLOL, first, you talk math, then list no actual mathematical figures or equations. Where's the simple math? If you were going to go with the Transitive Property, that doesn't apply to boxing. Styles make fights. You've been told this too many times already, yet come up with this weak counter-argument? Have you not seen GGG's fights? There's really only 1 way to beat GGG, & that's through the inside game, having a strong defensive game, & having a strong chin. I can't see Lara maintaining all those at a world level for a full 12 rounds against GGG...he's an out fighter...you don't just change your style overnight. Sure, it's been proven that you don't have to be the stronger fighter to win a boxing match...but you give me nothing to go by which would allow me to debate the issue. The real question is how is Lara going to beat GGG when he lacks the power to keep GGG honest, & he lacks the style to beat GGG on the cards. That's it. Counter-argue if you want.
All GGG has is power, nothing else is special about him when compared to other stars or real hall of famers. No skill/reflex/speed/defense-wise advantage he has. Just makes his opponents cover up on corners or ropes then utilizes his power. Beat nobody (by nobody I mean no stars, you see?) but still you guys hype him up to stars.
