Beibut Shuminov vs Junior Anthony Wright for the WBA World Cruiserweight Title
Why you so scare them?
Is not like GGG is beating world beaters.
Vanes 170 fight night, Lara 160. Lara basically Lara beat a middleweight, no different that the size and weight of GGG opponents.actually he beat a lighthevyweight

Chill'N re-watching the masterclass this sunday....some of the greatness that's not appreciated BTW no Euro can match this talent - no fighters in England they all bums.
This is boxing. We see fights all the time we know who is going to win.
Did anyone legitly think Khan was NOT going to get KTFO vs Canelo? Did anyone think Wade had a chance in f#ck to beat GGG? Dose anyone think the guy with 10 KO's in 30 odd fight has a chance to beat Kovalev? Hell this is still a fantasy fight but does anyone think that Floyd doesn't 12-0 or KO McGregor if they fight?
Why does the #1 guy at 154 (who no one wants to fight) fighting the #1 guy at 160 (who no one wants to fight) not make sense? Its makes all the sense in the world regardless of what anyone thinks happens. And its probably the best guy either has fought before.
i think the fight "makes sense." you can't say he's the best opponent golovkin has faced on those grounds alone. erislandy lara is not floyd mayweather, where even when he's campaigning at WW and being WW size that you would handicap him as the best 154 lber in the world.
golovkin has wins over guys who earned top 5 rankings at mw. that alone makes them better wins, at this stage, than erislandy lara, when you consider the entirety of his accomplishments and shortcomings in his career.
WTF, B.I.G. would have been 44 in 2016? Damn. He was so young.
John Jackson fought really well. I didn't think he was that good, and I guess people will argue that it was more about showing Jermell's limitations, but credit where it is due. Jackson showed something. That being said, Jermell has a lot to work on. No matter what he claims, he isn't a big puncher and if he has to rely on landing a punch causing that kind of reaction, he isn't going to beat many good boxers.
Jermall looked much better. He was pretty much doing everything that his brother didn't know how to. He and Trout fought a damn good fight. Trout had some Lara-like straight left counters throughout. Real close fight, as expected. Pretty easy to see how either guy could get the decision. I had it 6-6 and could easily find the rounds to give it to either guy.
Man, Lara just is who he is and he's never going to change. He just can't help but give away rounds he shouldn't. If he ever learned how to attack he would be so much better. Vanes really should have started bringing the left hook upstairs when he doubled it.
Good trio of fights. I enjoyed them all.
I want to see Lara vs Golovkin
Not because i want to see a fight, because it will not be one, just because i want to see Lara and his followers shut up for good.
He takes 3 shots to the liver from GGG and he is history.
Wtf you talking about? Why wouldn't anyone wanna see Lara vs GGG. Lara would clearly be GGG's best opponent at this point? Don't understand these sorta comments.
Solid night of fights. Hopefully J-Rock gets to fight one of these guys next. Don't even care which one. And hopefully if Andrade wins next time out he can get on some other 154 supercard like this & he can fight one of the other two guys. Lets get this 154 party started.
Also wtf at both Charlo's having a title now. Just what this division needs is two guy who won't fight each other. I kinda understand why GGG & his bro had to choose only one of them who could fight pro. It would suck a lil if GGG & his lil bro was running 160, but would never fight like Vitali & Wladimir & now Jermell & Jermall.
Come on man, because Lara gets cut off and walked down inside of five rounds. Do we really need to go through this?
He clearly mentioned Golovkin! Are you guys going keep pretending that he never calls GGG out and then use that as an excuse for why GGG never has to fight him?
GGG Fans: Did you notice that Lara didn't even mention Golovkin? He's shook. He doesn't want the fight, let's stop talking about this coward.
Regular Fans: Actually Golovkin was the first name out of his mouth.
GGG Fans: Um...err....well...it doesn't matter, doe. Let's just stop talking about him ok?
I missed it man, I dont speak spanish and went to take a piss. i came back and the translator said canelo. Do you people really want to see Lara get put to sleep? Do you really think he has a chance against Golovkin? Ill ask you to think about your answer because this is a fight if we are being real is a fore gone conclusion. Lara made Canelo look like a fool but couldnt beat him and you think he is going to beat Golovkin? Really guys, let him unify and move UP!! There was nobody on this card tonight that beats Golovkin. The fights we go ooohhh, he might lose this one are to the north of where he is. Lets look for that and stop trying to get these little guys killed.
I scored the fight 114 to 113, for Martirosyan and that’s with the bull**** point deduction that shouldn’t have happened.
Seems the judges never give credit for body punches.
fighter spends most of the night going backwards and idiots like Paulie talk about what great "RING GENERALSHIP" it is. Hey Paulina I have SKY Sat as well as Time Warner! Thanks to you I switched to Box Nation!
When Vic Drakulich deducted the point They switch to a different camera and stated it was on the belt line!
You’re dictating the action by running away from your opponent, doesn’t mean it’s fighting, it’s not. This is supposed to be a FIGHT.
I’m all for great technique, skills, and avoiding punches. But when a guy runs away that much, scoring needs to indicate it.
LOL he wants GGG!
What did Canelo say "I didn't think it was gonna be that long of a marathon?"
"You win fights throwing punches; not on your bike"
Did you notice Jim grey asked him what was next and he didnt mention Golovkin.
He clearly mentioned Golovkin! Are you guys going keep pretending that he never calls GGG out and then use that as an excuse for why GGG never has to fight him?
I just walked back into the room when the translator was talking. It doesnt matter though either way....

Ok. If you say so. http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/mysmiliesvb/mysmilie_1248.gif
Monroe would beat the hell out of Lara, you guys really gotta get off his nuts. He is almost too small for jmw.
what the hell kind of b1tch made mentality is this
gennady has yet to fight anyone good. Lara would be the first good fighter he has faced.
Yet it's a waste of time in the prison of your mind.
Referencing art of war and samurais but fighting good fighter is a waste of time
You dont know shiet about either so save me your disdain. Why fight the battle that is already won. If Lara was a bigger man you would have an argument, Monroe would beat Lara at MW so why in the world would you put him in the ring with Golovkin? This is a really stupid argument, lara in no way would be his best fight, it would be one of his easiest. You just want him to have a name on his resume that you arm chair so called boxing experts can say, ok now he beat someone?Lara wants a payday, I dont blame him but if you think this fight ends any other way then Lara face first Marquez/Paq style then you need to find another sport to watch. Its a waste of time..period.
Ha, Mayorga as you Avatar. You cant even represent your self properly and you want to speak at me. Id suggest you do some research on boxing first of all then a bunch of research into the art of war before you speak at me about either. Golovkin is knocking down just about every tenet of the good book, you just dont know it.
It's not even fair to say something like that. Black skinned fighters are ALWAYS going to look better unless they have that facial structure that constantly swells like a Jermain Taylor.
Sure maybe it's that. Or the fact that Vanes practically landed zero clean shots to the face.
If Lara is facing someone relevant, I'll watch. He isn't a fighter that I'd watch against a low-tier fighter. The best thing for us all is to match Lara with nothing but top opposition.
Lara, Andrade, Charlos, Smith, J-Rock, Hatley, Culcay, Soro....time to match all these guys up,

You seriously believe this **** dont you?
I wanna see it...should I start the 'Lara is ducking Andrade' angle after the Nelson fight?
They already made an offer to Andrade and he refuse, the guy think he need to be paid a lot.
After the SD on Vanes I thought he would step up and have fail to do so.
There is plenty of fight in the 154 now, Lara, Charlos Brothers, no excuse for him fight a top boxer next if he pass his fight, either in 160 or 154.
I've been calling for this fight, is time for the people who paid the bills to make it happen.
