I'm surprised that anybody thinks this would at all be a close fight. Lara has always been pretty good but he has struggled with less than great fighters on multiple occasions. He isn't a bad fight but he would have to go up in weight for this fight and he has proven to have problems dealing with pressure and his chin seems suspect. I see no way how Lara even makes this fight competitive.
Lara has the natural skill and style to give anyone problems but as impressive as he was blowing out Zaveck, I have a hard time seeing that transition into lasting with Golovkin. Mentalities change when you stand in two way traffic and Golovkins jab and short right down the middle would keep Lara reacting and wishing he entered the ring with a riot shield. He'd be throwing snowballs at a tank here.
Lara is with Haymon. He can't face Canelo or GGG so that's why he calls them out. He should be trying to get the Jacobs/Quillin winner in the ring, but instead he challenges people that aren't in his league. It's annoying.
