Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Promoter: No Word From Lara and His Team

All that may be true and yet... GGG is still not trying to make any fights and sitting around waiting.

Fighting 4 times this year. How is that sitting around and waiting?
Why won't Lara ask his daddy if he's allowed to go get his jaw smashed on HBO? lol

For the 3rd straight year too. Now with Canelo/Cotto becoming a reality for November it looks like GGG won't be fighting a live opponent until summer of 2016 at the earliest.

Lara might not really want to fight Golovkin but all LaFleur has to do is talk to HBO and then send an offer to his team. Although not a middleweight Lara would be the best fighter - maybe even the best win - on Golovkin's resume.

Make an offer to a fighter they know can't fight on HBO.
That's just ****ing brilliant.
How about send a fight contract to a picture of an Earthquake?

Why did Canelo fight Kirkland instead of GGG?
Why did Cotto fight Geale instead of GGG?
Why don't you know your ass from a hole in the ground?

Lara is a interesting anomaly. He doesn't command such a big purse that HBO can't use "the price is right" argument. He isn't signed to SHowtime. If HBO doesn't approve him it seems solely because he would make for a difficult fight for GGG.

I don't know man, apparently he made $1 million against Delvin and I remember his manager saying that he would get a seven-figure purse for the Ishe fight. He will probably ask more to face GGG.

I don't know. But they are fighting each other while GGG wastes another year of his prime fighting bums. But as long as your happy with it, enjoy the Big Drama Shows.

If your're consistent with your criticism of mandatory challengers getting screwed over during the past 30 years then you would have a point. If you have been letting it slide then you have no right to complain now just because a fighter you are a fan of is getting shafted due to corruption.

I didn't see much of an outcry for Vanes, Lara, Aydin or the numerous other fighters that had to go through a ton of eliminators and not get their shot at the title.

I am consistent. For example I've clearly expressed my dissapointment in Ward having never fullfilled his mandatory obligations. Why the WBA haven't stripped him long ago I have no idea.

Canelo and Cotto both had a chance to step up and be that first "Big Name" to "expose" GGG lol
Canelo chose a guy who got KO'd by Ishida and Cotto chose Geale.
"MUH RESUME!" lol

3rd straight year? Hes only been on US Tv for 3 years, and went from 0 to 6 Ring top 10 scalps. Ggg haters are clueless

I hear ya. Its such a travesty that the alphabet boys does not enforce the mandos. Sturm avoided GGG for years, then Martinez, then Cotto. Hopefully they strip Cotto if he goes on to fight Canelo.
