    What are you talking about? Lara is a defensive fighter. He's not an aggressive fighter who dishes out punishment.

    Why would a world class fighter fear somebody like Lara?

    Lara can't punch!!

    There's no way you are really that dumb and have lived this long.
    I guess that means you're just another sh*t mouth troll.
    Go die in a fire.

    you can't read either? Please tell me English is not your first language, this is quite embarrassing.

    I bolded the part that makes the statement non-contradictory, to save you the time. Re-read it until full comprehension.

    No dummy...Emotion and fear plagues every fighter, you obviously dont know what the fuk youre talking about.. You step in the ring theres no knowing if youre going to come out of there the same as you went in. Thats the fear fighters face in the ring, and believe me they fear too. And its obvious youve never stepped in a ring before to come up with another stupid post..:-(

    Did he say Lara brought nothing to the table, before he chose the money maker Boxcino Champion Willy Monroe Jr? Yes or No Old B00B?

    Fear of being outclassed and exposed as a FRaud is one explanation. He's afraid of Lara's skills plain and simple, so you ******es can type your bias BS to someone else.. GGG doesnt share your guy's confidence.:deal

    He entered the ring at 165 against Mayweather.

    9G fans were claiming Willie Monroe Jr. one of the best Middleweights of the era going into the fight.

    Monroe Jr may not have been P4P, but he brought in money on the level of a heist carried out by The Hole in the Wall gang. Monroe Jr brings in all the high rollers around the world and the ticket prices are absurd. Monroe Jr sweats money.

    He will be shot in a year or 2 from making weight. They have him ranked and in line for title belt fights at this weight and wont move him up.

    It's possible, I suppose.

    A Canelo fight is big bucks especially after he KO's Cotto, which I think he will. GGG might be persuaded to boil off 2 lb for big bucks.

    But to be honest I think Canelo is using the weight issue to dodge GGG. If GGG can make 158 easily, then Saul will want 155. :deal

    I see you insist on trying to belittle my intelligence, despite the fact that my IQ is, given your post history, reading comprehension and grammar, most likely above your entire family tree combined. I just might be the smartest person you'll talk to in your life, unless you make it out of highschool and into university (where the likes of me would be tasked with a draconian ordeal of catering to your intellectual growth). If you are in fact an adult (chronologically, not intellectually), then I have nothing but pity for you, and you are dismissed from further interactions. I do believe however that you are a teen, seeing your eagerness to generalize, bandwagon name calling, abuse of superlatives, your kindergarten logic and inability to concede to obvious failings.

    That aside, you keep insisting I "trust you" in knowing what fighters go through in the ring, while giving no credentials of yourself or your in-ring experiences. I had 4 boxing matches and countless wrestling matches, going as far as nationals, so I know very well what emotional turmoils one has to conquer to maintain composure in the ring. I remember losing 10 pounds overnight due to sheer stress of fighting an opponent 20 pounds heavier and 8 years younger than me, and frankly, him being heavy handed was my main concern. I was never afraid of technicians like Lara because worst case scenario, you get outpointed. With knockout-artists you have a very real chance of getting seriously hurt - or worse. Golovkin represents both - a technically sound fighter with incredible punching power, which is why he is ducked.

    Oh how beautifully and shamelessly you lie. One might be lead to believe those mysterious GGG fans did in fact say something along those lines when in reality, it was the GGG haters on alts cut/pasting this myth in an attempt to discredit an excellent performer.

    What irks me the most about you is that you lie with a mask of objectivity firmly glued to your face, going out of your way to present yourself as a fair and just observer.

    Canelo will be ready for 160 when ggg is ready for 168. Plain and simple
