Comments Thread For: Lara: There'll Come a Time When Golovkin Won't Have an Excuse

[i'm a fun haver]

Another piece of **** who just uses GGG name to sell his upcoming fight.

Go *****!!!

Say "GGG" then fight Yuri Foreman lol
Lara does it every time and these dummies still fall for it

[BattlingNelson]

Sure man. It would be one of the better wins on GGG's record and since Lara apparently want it so bad, he will be happy to take a 90/10 split as his future earnings in case of a win will be outstanding.

Lara: There'll Come a Time When Golovkin Won't Have an Excuse

WBA/IBO junior welterweight champion Erislandy Lara (23-2-2, 13KOs) is wondering what he needs to do to get WBC/WBA/IBF/IBO middleweight champion Gennady 'GGG' Golovkin (36-0, 33KOs) in the ring.

... tbh: Russian School fighters always had issues vs Cuban School ones...

Why didn't Lara ever try to fight Quillin or Jacobs instead of retired WW's - Delvin Rodriguez and Jan Zaveck? Even now fighting another retired fighter in Yuri Foreman instead of someone like Andy Lee or Sergiy Derevyanchenko. Hell he could fight Alphonso Blanco or Jorge Heiland instead of Foreman and become Golovkin's mandatory.


That said, I wish Haymon/K2 would've made a deal where Golovkin would've fought Lara in December, then Jacobs in March. Instead we got the usual boxing ****ery.

Sorry maggot..Begging like a peasant is what Gigi is doing with Canelo.

One minute ...it's nobody wants to fight GGG...then when somebody does...you shi.t-eating scabs get mad

this peon here.

can't make anyone fight if they don't want it. if you want a certain fight, put yourself into mando spot like how GGG did w/ WBC. If Lara wanted the fight, he would make moves. instead of trigger fingers he got twitter fingers.

Instead of waiting for the fight to be handed to him as most things are when living in a communist society, Lara has things he can do to put himself in closer position to get the fight.

he really don't want it though. actions speak louder than words all day every day. I thought a shot caller like Kigali would know that. but nope, he likes and supports fighters looking for socialist handouts.

Kigali probably voted for Bernie, then Hilary

socialist peasant beggar trash

What PPV did he headline? And doesn't Lara hold a world title in the division above Brook?

Well Canelo is apparently running away so Lara would get the fight but the problem is he isn't Mexican?

The problem Lara has is he isn't a big draw I doubt even Brook would have got the GGG fight If it was him instead of Eubank Jr vying for the fight from the very start because him being at 147lbs Brook was entirely a last ditch fight moment.
So he had the options as follows fight someone for a big payday or don't fight anyone for zilch and lose out the cash you wasted on your training camp.

There won't be any hand me outs to Lara he has to earn it and likely it would only take one fight at middleweight so I don't see what the big deal is fight someone like T.Johnson get the win and If GGG and his team say nothing after Lara beats a top opponent at 160 If they ignore him then that is when you can call him out for ducking.

The PPV was at the 02 London where he KOed Frankie Gavin.

[richardt]

the current Team Golovkin line is.....
..... " everybody is ducking us " >>> fight another no-hoper

I can't see 1 good reason in your post why that fight shouldn't happen

Lara should rightfully be ranked above all those guys you mentioned.

Golovkin can fight Brook, but Lara is unthinkable..... really?

I didn't give a reason why GGG vs Lara shouldn't happen, and I have no problem with the fight. I asked a question. Are you willing to answer the question?

... supposed big retiring purse?

[richardt]

Simple question. Why are you criticising Lara for wanting to fight the best one weight class up?

I didn't criticize him for wanting to fight GGG, I pointed out that there are two divisions of great fights out there so why not position himself better by beating a top guy in either division?

[richardt]

Because he wants GGG...that's why.

Brook didn't call out the top WW's when he wanted Gigi.

So what's the difference.??

The difference is Brook was a matter of timing based on the same promoter who promoted Eubank who pulled out. If Eubank had accepted the fight, Brook would not have been chosen. So answer my original question.
