    Man, I really forgot Lara existed. Not even trying to be funny, but I was like "oh yea....I forgot about this guy". Sad to say but at this point, even fighters like Victor Ortiz and Luis Callazo are more relevant than he is, just the truth. It's terrible to see what's been done with his career after the Canelo fight. But at least Haymon still pays him like a superstar.

      After seeing Jacobs beating on GGG from the southpaw stance, and seeing GGG sucking for air after 9 rounds, we can totally forget about seeing GGG vs. Lara. Now back to the regularly scheduled programming: Lara vs. Andrade! Make it happen!

        So true. Lara is a legend in his own mind. He has talent but his inactivity like some others makes him forgettable. And as far as fighting Golovkin goes Lara would be running all night. Golovkin would eventually catch him and pummel him. No contest and would be a bore fest like most of Lara's fights.

Golovkin will fight smaller guys when the money is too good to resist but Lara knows damn well that he is going to have to put forth a bit more effort.
          Had Lara just moved up and become mandatory for wbc or ifb he would have fought golovkin by now. And with them negotiating with Jacobs I.doubt.they would refuse lara of his shot when jacobs was just.as.

            The last time Lara was in a big fight he retreated for 12 rounds. He is becoming a stalker like Khan. Don't be so desperate to land the big fight. Put on a good performance against a worthy opponent and then start the negotiating process.

              If Lara can't get a fight with Andrade, I believe he must fight Jacobs to prove he wants a shot at GGG for the MW title! If he doesn't want Jacobs, then another good test would be Immanuel Aleem! Jacobs and Aleem are in-house (PBC) fighters, so there are no excuses!

                I think Lara meant math problems (Calculus etc). I'm a Lara supporter but not against GGG. No dice, GGG beats him easily.

                  Problems as in running and hugging for 12 RDS like Canelo fight. Problems like the crowd booing Rd after Rd and TV audience falling asleep!

                    Yeah Jacobs ****ed up GGG. His fists must be nearly broken with Jacobs smacking his face into them all night long.

                      If El Perro could corner him, just imagine GGG! The one thing Lara exposed in his fight with Canelo is his unability to cut the ring off.
