I am surprised to see well respected posters here looking as clueless as those with inferior boxing knowledge.
HBO has exclusive broadcast rights to Golovkin's fights in North America. In simpler terms, he cannot fight in any other network; specially the rival one.
This is why GBP fighters act brave.
And I just can't help but laugh at those who actually believe Lara stands a chance against Golovkin. This discussion shows who truly knows about boxing and who doesn't.
Anybody who is well educated can easily see that Lara, who is also moving up in weight, would get knocked out by Golovkin.

Really, now? Don't be ridiculous.
Golovkin would absolutely destroy and embarrass Lara.
quote from ggg's trainer abel sanchez sept.2012:
You keep mentioning HBO, is Gennady an HBO fighter now?
"No, not necessarily yet. We haven***8217;t signed any kind of agreement but HBO is the one who took a chance on him so Gennady is thinking he***8217;s got to be loyal to the company that did take a chance."

"Showtime is the one that's at fault and CBS has allowed them to get away with this kind of thing. It's never happened before in the sport of boxing where one entity only deals with one promoter. When is the last time another promoter, forget Top Rank, any other promoter has put a fight on for Showtime?"

So Showtime has a problem with every other promoter, not just TR. That sounds fcuked up. In any case, for a fight big enough, they could try a joint ppv. Beats the hell out of losing money on Khan or whoever
if said fight happens, size will be a factor. GGG is just bigger and has the great equalizer, his power. Does GGG hit infinitely times harder than angulo? No, but he does hit harder. GGG is good at cutting off the ring, it would be interesting to see how he does that against a very FAST moving target. (of course the angles flipped because hes a southpaw)
Rosado made him bleed, Adama made him bleed, Lara will bust him up. They will make up a reason to avoid this fight and blame Lara for ducking. The guy is a product and products are manufactured, people will see soon enough.
Exactly...I don't think this cake walk of a fight that people think or expect (hope) to happen is actually gonna occur. Everyone can hope but Angulo applies pressure like a mofo and GGG does not, that is just the plain truth. If a guy who applies pressure like the best in the business ends up like that, how can a power puncher-boxer fare any better?

Yeah, a special breed of hypejob. Those Gifs are great but didn't Angulo quit in that fight because his face got caved in? Where is the GIF of that, lol?
^^ We have a winner nobody ever mention Angulo looked like a extra on Star Trek after the fight. We all know Lara would have ducked that beast Adama.

That just cause a fighter gets dropped it doesn't mean he has a questionable chin. Well, I guess it depends on how you define questionable.

true. lara hasn't been knocked out. never thought of it that way
This is pathetic. Actual boxing fans upset because one fighter calls out their favorite fighter. In-fuccin-credible.
They shook. They know GGG the ballerina coward scared of Lara and the clinic he would suffer and be put down in and made quit
Why wouldn't Showtime work with TR, other than being GBP's house network? They haven't made any statements that TR is not welcome, unlike HBO with GBP. Besides one is a PPV grossing huge money, other a fight paid for by the network

GGG would destroy Lara, it would be a interesting fight because of styles but GGG is special
I doubt Lara is getting paid that much on SHO, if he really wanted to fight GGG he would finish his contract with GBP and move over to HBO
