Comments Thread For: Golovkin-Lara: WBA Reorders Middleweight Title Consolidation Fight

[Bullrider]

Any reactions from both camps? What are the chances of this fight getting made?

Lara is the one type of fighter Golovkin has avoided his whole career.. A guy with good feet and a good jab.
Lara is all wrong for him. He will definitely retire after the fight if the fight gets made

Here they are promoting the event

Haha Sad part is, those geezers in the vid might’ve put on a better show. Lol

Lara doesn't really have any legs left though and recently been kinda ****ing it out in the pocket more or less. Though his last 4 opponents he outclassed by miles so he'd probably move more against Golovkiin.

He had better move. GGG power is still no joke as Murata found out. Never was a Lara fan but the man can box and I hope we get to see GGG KO him or Lara prove me wrong again.

It's bad enough we have four major belts, but the "regular" belts need to go, there is nothing prestigious about them. Just more belts to charge sanctioning fees. GGG clearly isn't interested in being undisputed. Only fight I care to see him in now is Munguia or Charlo, that's it.

You people need to stop this GGG avoided Lara story. It's been a pigment of your imagination that you held on for years. It's not true. It's the exact opposite. You need to stop overrating a one-dimensional fighter who can't fight on close quarters. He'll run twice as fast in front of the Kazakhstan superstar.

Neither had a strong following in their primes so.....

Yup. I guess people just want to believe what they want to believe, despite facts staring at their faces.

Loeffler asks Haymon about Lara

"There were never any "approaches." Loeffler was the one who reached out to DeCubas, who then started having demands that were definite roadblocks. Look how easy it was for him to get mandated by the WBA. Why did he wait until last year to finally move up?"

That's not even the issue I have with these PBC fighters, although it's disgusting in itself as eloquently summed up by the previous poster. It's the constant lying and pretending that gets me. These PBC fighters can't even make fights in their own backyard which are supposedly easy to make, yet they have the audacity to call out fighters not in their own side of the street. Meaning, it won't happen, anyways.

Just look at the available guys in the 160 - 168 division for Lara. There's Charlo, who also just recently called out GGG for a unification. There's Adames, Derevyanchenko, Andrade, Morrell...

Well, the ball is on PBC/Decubas court now that GGG is a free agent. There's only one network/platform this fight should be on. It's SHOWTIME baby! Make it happen! Can't wait.

Let it marinade for a few more years first. Really build up the hype. This fight seems a little too soon for the Great Nash. Nash out
