Lara is damn near impossible to look good against. Rangy southpaw who likes boxing from the outside. It's an unusual combo. Not exactly a huge amount of guys you can bring in to spar with to specifically prepare for Lara.
I just don't see the tools from Lara to beat GGG.

lara is limited, he has one style, he needs to be on the outside, if you pressure him and walk him down he doesnt know how to deal with it.
still, GGG's opposition until the last year was horrific and people were demanding the fight, that GGG ran scared from a fighter most think he would beat easily, doesnt do him any favors.Comment

bingoI don't think he beats him but he would give him challenges. GG doesn't deal with lateral movement very well.
The reason people wanted to see Lara vs GGG was because, at the time, GG was fighting guys like Wade, welterweight Kell Brook, etc. If you think Lara is garbage, that should explain how bad GG's competition was that people were begging for him to fight Lara.
There's fights for Golovkin at 160 now, which is why no one is asking to see him fight Lara anymore.
despite what people think of lara or his chances were....he was more accomplished than pretty much any of gggs previous opponents...was the top ranked guy one division below....and was in the feature of several televised cards on reg cable and premium....it made alot of sense...despite what people think it was pretty obvious gggs handlers didnt really fancy the fightComment

Lol. Too bad Golovkin also likes to fight on the outside, feasts on mobile opponents, has a dynamite jab and takes advantage of people who shell up on the ropes, which Lara loves doing.
I can kinda see why people try pushing Lara, but that dude has never fought an offensive fighter like Golovkin. The chances of him going 12 are zero, and I'm not one for absolutes.
Go watch Lara vs. Martirosyan. Pay attention to basic forward motion that Vanes used, and that was still enough to corner Lara 20 times. Then look at all those hooks that Vanes was landing on laras frail body.
Imagine him fighting a guy with a weight advantage, twice the power, and polished offensive game and you'll realize Lara doesn't last 5 rounds.
Golovkin feasts on mobile fighters. It's not Lara that would make Golovkin look bad, it would be exact opposite.Comment

Jacobs and Brook say otherwise. GGG himself says otherwise as well. Where did you get this from?Lol. Too bad Golovkin also likes to fight on the outside, feasts on mobile opponents, has a dynamite jab and takes advantage of people who shell up on the ropes, which Lara loves doing.
