    Loeffler: Lara can get it!



    I think Tom was celebrating with a little of the bubbly, but Michelle asked him about Lara and he said Lara's a good option and people want to see Golovkin vs a mover. It'd be on HBO & Haymon to approve it.

    Lara would get stopped rather quickly, probably round 5 or 6.

      Back when Lara called Golovkin out, HBO were the ones who wouldn't accept him. Golovkin's side doesn't have any problem fighting Lara. Nor should they, his style is a nightmare for Lara.

      I think the Mayweather/Pacquiao fight being made means a lot of HBO/Haymon fights are possible where they weren't before. K2 should try again for Golovkin's next fight when he (likely) doesn't get Cotto.

        Even if HBO said yes, I don't think Haymon gives up any of his fighters off his network tree. He's trying to choke out the non-Haymon promoters and HBO is the only support those promoters have left.

          A very interesting fight if it can get made. I wonder if Lara's belt will be on the line Mayweather style... jk.

            They should do it on the card with Mayweather-Pacquiao or on Alvarez-Kirkland.

              I like Lara, but I sincerely don't believe he has any real shot to beat Golovkin.

                  Eh..Why not? Lara is best fighter from 154-160 that seems like he wants the fight.

                    Haymon must approve? Definitely not happening.
