    What round would Golovkin stopped Lara had they fought back in 2016-2017?

    Okay, after GGG said to Lara that he should move up to 160, lets make a hypothetical situation that Lara didn't hide behind the "Want to break the most 154 defense" excuses and actually turned up to 160 for GGG, beat Curtis Stevens to be in the ranking and fought him somewhere late 2016 or early 2017.

    I mean, it should have been exposed now that Lara would never hurt Golovkin and is susceptible to left hooks (Which is Golovkin's tools) and walk him down, but with GGG having far greater accuracy and punching power than Hurd, Lara would have never went the distance.

    He doesn't.

    Golovkin was hitting air and couldn't cut off Canelo when he moved. He wouldn't land **** on Lara of a few years ago.

      We'll never know because he didn't want any parts of the fight.

        Except Canelo-Lara where never stylistically alike, the only thing that troubled Golovkin was Canelo's counters, that's why he wasn't able to trap Canelo because he was going to walk into counters and Golovkin couldn't take that risk and because of that, there were many options for Canelo on escape routes, but remember also 50% of the fight where fought on the ropes, so that speaks Golovkin's ability despite his style made for Canelo.

        Lara never have the activity nor the counter's of Canelo, and especially power (Canelo's power was never something Special but he its harder than Lara) Golovkin would have walked Lara down, and knowing that he only shoots 1 at a time, took more chances and bring him further on the end of his left hook, breaking him down. It was likely that Golovkin was going to stop Lara.

            why do people say things like this? laras team admitted they wanted millions when contacted. makes you look very uniformed. it was just hype calling out ggg and nothing more. you aren't supposed to believe it.

              When did Loaffler contact Lara and when did he ask for millions?

                let's just say Lara agreed to move up and the fight would have taken place..Lara doesn't have to come in at 160 he would probably come in at 157 tops and ggg still would not have landed nothing of significance on Lara for the simple fact ggg does not know how to cut off the ring...ggg needs a stationary fighter In front of him Lara would be to quick for him to catch..
