If Canelo fights Lemiuex next, I think Lara would be a good bounce back fight for GGG.

    Or Andrade..

    But Lara has been calling him out.

    The size difference will be noticeable but Lara may be slick enough to evade Golovkin's power.

    Why Lara?
    Out of all people? He fights nothing like Alvarez!

    And look at just how much **** Golovkin got for fighting Vanes.

    I still would love to see it, especially now since GGG may want to get a "tune up" in before pursuing a Canelo rematch and lara would definitely pose some problems early.

    Looked real slick vs the one dimensional Hurd.

    Lara has been winning, and is willing to move up to fight. He also beat vanes so I don't think GGG would get criticizd for fighting Lara after a defeat.

    I'd love to see it too. I would even give Lara a decent shot at out boxing Triple G

    He needs to get a tune-up. I doubt he'd fight any of the guys that you named because of politics. The Lara fight might be alot easier to make now.

    I think GGG would knock him out, but not before Lara gets his own licks in.

    Yes he would. Lara almost got taken out by Hurd.
    Golovkin would be shredded.

    And?
    Lara is still a 154lb guy who lost his last fight. Why fight him? What does he bring to the table?

    Both coming off losses and need to rebuild, why not fight each other? I'm with it

    he is not getting any better, if he wants to remain a serious threat to the crown, he needs to stay on pace. everyone will be looking for evidence of having lost a step and his marketability will start to drop. he needs to show he is still above the pack, which i think he is.
