    Literally none. Apart from Lara runs more and hits softer.

    I don't rate Lara he ain't no bogey man

    The biggest difference is that Golovkin isn't at all afraid to fight pillow fisted Monroe but is absolutely terrified at the thought of getting in the ring with Lara.

    Lara is one of the easiest to land on the body. He's bread and butter for GGG who cuts off the ring so that there is nowhere to run and who connects that left hook to the body off the right hands and off the uppercuts at will. GGG is a very bad match up for Lara.

    Monroe is decent, I think he'll be a tough match-up for a lot of guys based on style. In fact I think he'd really trouble Canelo, though still lose.

    Lara is just generally better though

    I didn't say Lara beats him. I said Lara survives more than 6 with him. Your acting like Lara couldn't utilises what Brook did, the one two whilst steping back to his left and right.
