If that makes you feel like a winner, then by all means hold it close.

Where's the difference in the two? Or is it Lara the only one grandstanding

There isn't a difference.

stop it Koba. Just admit that GGG and his team played themselves. If you want to boost your image off floyd, dont get mad when Lara does it to you.

Wait... you just got upset cos I mentioned a more realistic and makeable fight?

I actually had written a post kinda ridiculing the way that you talk about it is if it matters what I admit, or that it's my image that gets boosted or that I might get mad about it....

We ain't all so emotionally invested, 'case you hadn't noticed although I respect Floyd as a boxer, I ain't really intrested as a fan and don't really discuss him.

I honestly was just using Floyd as an example, I could just as easily have said Nelo or an Angulo rematch..FMJ was just the first one that came into my head...sorry it bothered you so much.

His last fight wasn't on HBO....saying he's hbo doesn't work 100% here.

Hbo gets first dibs and exclusive rights to his US fights. And he probably cant fight on Showtime even if Hbo passes, standard non compete

Considering Golovskin's winning streak and Lara's moving up in weight. Golovskin takes this, probably by decision. Good fight if it happens.

Is it just me, or should Lara be focusing his calling out energy on Canelo or Chocolate instead? There are far less politics involved and they are fights that can happen. They actually makes sense. Right now I consider this nothing but posturing.

If Lara leaves GBP and showtime, then he can call out GGG. Lara should have no problem leaving Golden Boy as they don't seem to have interest in him anyway.

All this is nothing more than an attention grab. If he really wanted a fight with Golovkin, he should go after Chocolate's strap first. If he gets the WBO middleweight belt, he then might be able make something happen.

This is nothing but the Mares/Donaire bullsh|t all over again.
