Comments Thread For: Canelo's Trainer: No Weight Restrictions To Be Placed on Makabu

[Boxing-1013]

Difference is Canelo will always have Lara on his resume.

Golovkin claimed he was avoided but somehow found a way to swerve the name fighters who were willing to face him (Erislandy Lara, Andre Ward.)

We're going in circles here. I've given my thoughts on all of that really.

There's no circles here, it's really straightforward.

Lara was a high risk fight that Canelo took.

Golovkin had a chance to take the same fight but he completely avoided it.

Like I said, this was something that played out and developed over several years. Not just one time.

Lara Ready To Go To 160: I Want Golovkin or Canelo Next!

And yet he didn't go to 160 until 7 months ago, so it looks like he was blowing smoke that whole time. He could've done what you want plenty of Canelo opponents to do if they want to get a fight with him and position themselves so that they (Canelo, Golovkin) have to fight them if they want to unify, especially going the WBO route. So all that talk doesn't mean ****. Same with Golovkin at 168. Don't say anything if you don't plan on going through with it.

The P4P king is a bona fide warrior with balls of steel

After beating Makabu, he'll go down to LHW to unify the division

Same modus operandi as he did with SMW

Is the WBC still lowering the cruiserweight limit to 190 pounds?

Lara would have gone to 160 if Golovkin was willing to take a risk against him. But obviously that never happened.

OK again, we disagree on the details there, lol. Just time to move on bud.

You're trying really really hard man. It comes across as not genuine. Just give it a rest, for a new topic or day.

Oh woulda coulda bull****. What never happened was Lara going to 160 and forcing Golovkin's hand. He's the one calling out Golovkin, so he's the one that should be making the moves to get that fight. DeCubas even said they never even formally reached out to team GGG. Lara supposedly wants that fight so bad, yet there's not even any start on actual negotiations? And once again, team GGG did reach out, and Luis started putting up roadblocks, so take that as you will.

Canelo fought Lara, Golovkin didn't. You can't disagree on that. Those are facts.

As to why you downplay that Canelo took a risky fight...but excuse Golovkin for not taking the exact same risk? Yeah, we definitely disagree on that.
