    Only way this Lara fight happens is if Golovkin is robbed again. I expect him to lose though, this time for real and badly, and then retire.

      Woulda been great back when Lara was calling out GGG when “everyone” was ducking GGG. Way too late now, a win for either of them over the other would mean nothing now. And GGG ain’t fighting Lara, no way. Not even this past prime Lara. There is a reason GGG ducked a younger, prime Lara.

        He literally said no to Lara. It’s not a claim. GGG and Abel turned down Lara’s call outs. That’s an actual duck. There is nothing else to call it.

          It was Loeffler who ****ing reached out to Lara's team. It was DeCubas who started putting up roadblocks. Look how easy it was for Lara to become a mandatory. If he wanted it so bad, he could have easily have moved up and put himself in position; since it's the WBA, it obviously wasn't very hard.

          Interviewer in 2015: "Could you fight at 160 or just 154?"
          Lara: "No 154, 154...154."

            I personally hope he decides to move back down and fight someone like Lara has his last career fight. He should defeat Lara without much trouble as he always would have.
            It won't be lara. It would be munguia for his last fight. Dazn

                GGG will duck Lara like he always has.....add to that that now they are both senior citizens.

                  Call outs don’t mean ****. Ryan has called out Tank for the last 4 years. is Tank ducking him?

                    Umm you can't duck a guy in a lower weight class than you when you're trying to unify 160

                      This. Lara never wanted the fight. If he did he would have moved up 160 and became mando
