IBF gives Golovkin a mandatory and now Lara speaks!

As I said, not a single fuck was given. Be like Fury. "Everyone knows I'm the number one heavyweight on the planet. They can take all of their belts if they want - WBO, WBA, IBO and the Ring magazine," he said. "They can give them to Fred Flintstone, Joe Bloggs, Superman or Batman for all I care. It doesn't matter what they do as it won't take away what I am. "I'm still the best heavyweight boxer in the world. Yes, Fury is being defined by what he has accomplished, not by the belts. Golovkin keeping the the belts won't change who he is. If he's fighting Canelo next, the IBF belt is not important whatsoever. The same way the MW IBF belt has been completely irrelevant for the past 10 years. And if doesn't get Canelo, beating Lara in a way Canelo couldn't get close to will certainly undisputedly seal him as the the best middleweight boxer in the world. Fighting Wade and keeping his belt will do squat shit for him. Fury got the biggest prize in his division, so is #1 in all the ratings. Despite being a much more dominant champ Ggg hasn't got that opportunity nor has ever been #1 in the ratings. It'll be a good analogy if Canelo gets beat and exercises a rematch, the GGG gets stripped by the IBF Also don't understand the bolded. He's only not undisputed on paper, and Lara won't change that. Hell he's not even a MW

Lara would be the best name on Lil G's resume. "wont add anything to Little G's career" :lol1: C'mon man i know you love defensive kind of fighter but praising lara would be the best name on little g's resume is so bias. Lara, murray, lemiuex are on the same level. Lara might be better than the last two in term of tecnique and slightly more famous but as a fighter overall they're at the same level, they just contender.

If lara is such an easy win for big bad GGG. Why doesnt GGG just fight him then and get his name on his resume, it would sure be a better name that monroe or lemeuix. i said: As a GGG fan i want GGG to fight Lara and KO him. Read first.

You are missing the point completely. The IBF just stripped Fury ffs. Golovkin has to fight his mandatory, which is now Wade or he will lose his belt. Really not that hard to grasp. It seems to be very, very difficult indeed for some people.

Fighting Wade and keeping his belt will do squat shit for him. Your argument has more holes in it than a lump of Swiss cheese. First point, Fury didn't give up the IBF belt voluntarily, he was stripped of it because he had a rematch clause with Wlad and Duva called for an immediate purse bid re Glazkov. Of course he stuck 2 fingers up to the IBF afterwards, and sounded off about not needing the belt anyway. What would you expect from Fury? Second, as you say, Fury is defined by his accomplishments, which is exactly what I was saying in my post. What Fury accomplished was to win 3 world title belts, plus the ring lineal, in a high profile fight with one of the best known boxers in the world. GGG hasn't accomplished anything like that and doesn't have the global recognition that Fury now has. Third, if belts don't matter, why did Cotto pay GGG nearly $1million step aside money so he could go into the negotiations with Canelo as WBC champion? And why, if Canelo doesn't want to fight GGG at 160, doesn't he relinquish the WBC belt instead of doing everything in his power to hang on to it for as long as possible? Fourth, you are criticising Golovkin with this "belts don't matter" argument, but ignoring the fact that the only reason Wade comes into the equation now is that Canelo, apparantly, doesn't want to risk losing his belt by defending it against GGG, and doesn't want to let go of it either.

Really? Who is the better fighter Lara, Wade or Monroe jr.? You are missing the point completely. The IBF just stripped Fury ffs. Golovkin has to fight his mandatory, which is now Wade or he will lose his belt. Really not that hard to grasp.

stop with the bs excuses. lil'g doesn't have a fight signed right now, Lara doesn't have a fight signed right now..... what exactly is the problem with making this fight? That's exactly what I'm saying his fans need to stop defending this guy !

And posters say that GGG is ducking Lara. This punk chump wasn't calling out GGG like he was Canelo but as soon as he is tied up, Lara crawls out from the woodwork to play big man. GGG's team should call his bluff NOW!

The situations are nothing alike but you keep bringing it up.

Lara, the guy who was in hell with El Perro Angulo, heheheheheh. AS a GGG fan i want him to fight and LO Lara next. Lara is nothing. If lara is such an easy win for big bad GGG. Why doesnt GGG just fight him then and get his name on his resume, it would sure be a better name that monroe or lemeuix.

Little G doesnt want that cuban boxing lesson.

Lara, the guy who was in hell with El Perro Angulo, heheheheheh. AS a GGG fan i want him to fight and LO Lara next. Lara is nothing. Guys who were hating on Lara not so long ago are now putting all their stock behind him. Half of the guys calling for the fight know Lara isn't serious about it..that's why they are calling for it so much, because they know it won't happen. They want to dress it up as a Golovkin 'duck'. It's easy to see which posters are using that angle and which aren't. The threads a few months back were all about GGG needing to step up and face Lee and Quillin. They were GGG's boogeymen. Now that status has been shifted to Lara. A guy from the division below, who is famous for calling out guys he never ends up facing.

Arthur Abraham is rated that high cuz,of what? Where exactly do you rate Abraham? We've seen Abraham against elite guys. He gets beat easily every single time. Abraham isn't elite. We know what he's capable of. And I'm not sure how u had him winning, he did much of nothing for that entire fight. I rate him #1 at SMW, who else would go above him. And I wouldn't say he started losing to elites, more like he started losing to bigger elite fighters. He was a force at MW and he destroyed Taylor, someone closer to his size. If the fight happened anywhere but in Germany Murray would have walked out the champion.

Lara, the guy who was in hell with El Perro Angulo, heheheheheh. AS a GGG fan i want him to fight and LO Lara next. Lara is nothing.

im not "ok" with it, and actually I think its a sh*t fight, but it is what it is. Theres a mando due, Saunders ran and hid, and Johnson withdrew, so I'm cool with Wade That's essentially what you are saying :lol1:

Abraham is the #1 rated SMW so barely losing ( I had him winning) isn't shameful. It seems you don't understand what euro level is. You. Ant challenge for 4 world titles and barely lose three of the fights and be considered euro level. You can't be in the top ten of two divisions and still be euro level. And many fighters fought fights they're suppose to win. Tyson whole career was that. Hagler MW run was the exact same thing. Special fighters just stand out and are rarely challenged that's just the way it is. And you said you favor Monroe over Lemule so that would mean GGG fought no bad fights last year. Popularity doesn't equate to skills. I thought Murray should have got the decision against AA too.

If the Wade deal isnt made, they go to purse bid per IBF rules. Then if that blows up they would move to the next name which is Ndam, which is equally as awful. But you focus on a bad mandatory (as if GGG has any say in the matter) instead of looking at the REAL issue. If Canelo or Saunders had more BALLS, and less VAGINA, we wouldnt be having this conversation because GGG would be fighting one of them in April or May....... In our crazy post-feminist world, fighters with vaginas seem more willing to take on tough challenges than their male counterparts, tbh.

Martin Murray just lost to Arthur frikkin Abraham. And he wasn't even knocked out. Arthur frikkin Abraham. He may not be a bum but he's the textbook definition of a euro level fighter. And no, Lemieux wasn't a bad cight, buthe it wasn't a great one either. Anyone with any sense knew it was gonna be a one sided beat down. In fact, his moat interesting fight last year turned out to be against Willie Monroe, who I'd favor over Lemieux in a second.
