Team Golovkin did actually reach out and DeCubas started putting up roadblocks. I'm sure they could've tried harder but Lara didn't even have his first official fight at MW until this year. If he really wanted it, he could've put himself in position to force Golovkin's hand. I wish they would've made that fight and I'm actually critical of multiple opponents over the years, but this Lara bull**** has to stop. Do you think that fight would have been on HBO PPV? because if it wasn't, there wouldn't have been enough money to cover what Golovkin was starting to pull in and what team Lara was asking for.

It's double standards on your part. Just admit it.Comment

Golovkin chose never to take it. Even when Canelo popped for clenbuterol and a replacement opponent was needed.
Shields Offers Charlo, Lara To Replace Canelo, Fight Golovkin
With the May 5 Canelo-Golovkin rematch down the drain, trainer Ronnie Shields has thrown the hats of two of his fighters into the ring as replacement opponents for Gennady Golovkin (37-0-1, 33 KOs). Pending an April 18 Nevada State Athletic Commission hearing, Saul “Canelo” Alvarez (49-1-2, 34 KOs) has been suspended for twice testing positive for clenbuterol, a banned performance enhancing drug.Comment

To be fair I don't think team GGG was that eager for that fight as well.
But again - when you can't control the judges like Canelo can, then facing a guy like Lara is a much tougher fight to take. If you lose 8-4 to Lara, you will probably lose 8-4 if you're GGG.
If you lose 8-4 to Lara and you're Canelo, you know you will win 7-5 officially, or maybe a SD.
I'd criticize GGG for a lot more stuff if any of the haters made any damn sense with their comments about him. You guys are usually so off base that the whole discussion revolves around calling you out for your absurdity.Last edited by Boxing-1013; 12-09-2021, 09:17 PM.Comment

Why wouldn't GGG have fought Lara? Clearly Canelo was ducking GGG until GGG finally looked weak against Jacobs. What better way to prove what a ducker Canelo is than fighting the man who we all know beat him and beating him in convincing fashion? To me it was the best fight for GGG legacy at that time.Comment

Look man, I'm saying that Lara was a high risk low reward fight that Canelo chose to take.
