    I think K2 is being 2 respectful with their responses when others play the games and make themselves additional promotion by mentioning GGG name.

    To all the haters, GGG did not call out Floyd.
    When somebody asks you a question: what's your dream fight? And you respond: Floyd, does it count as calling out? He simply answered a question.
    Mind you, you'll never find neither Abel nor Tom asking for a fight with Floyd.

    Another point that is not stressed enough but is the most important here: Lara was not approved by HBO. This makes the fight impossible NOW. Should Lara have a title at 160 like Kid C then he'd be approved just like Quillin.

    HBO should allow Lara to fight GGG by summer, and I hope this happens with all this drama created out of nothing by Lara. He promotes his name quite well now, so the fight may eventually become possible if the fans want it so much or haters want to see GGG being "exposed" so much - or both.

    I am a fan of boxing first of all, so I don't really hate anybody. I like Lara, he's a credible fighter, who'll be a nice addition to GGG's resume. Hope it happens later on! I just hope Lara won't be silent like he was before Monaco fight 1 feb, when the fight could have really been made as it was off HBO.. He was silent, it's a fact.

    So when you look at the stream of events and analyse, you'd be more reasonable. Lara makes it like GGG is ducking, but he should have stepped up when GGG could not find opponents for 1 feb. Facts.

      is it a coincidence the triple G haters also have an extremely low i.q.? there must be a common denominator.

          ggg has not fought anybody that was in the top 50 p4p.

          he must be the only fighter in history to be recognised as the best in a division and have 10 defences and still not have fought someone who was top 50 p4p at the time of fighting them.

            P4P is a meaningless joke fantasy. Broner was rated #6 by Ring.

            More importantly GGG has fought two top 10 rated fighters at his weight class while he can't get the rest of the division to accept legit offers.

              I understand why Team Golovkin are ducking Ward but at some point, they're gonna have to take a really risky fight and Lara-GGG would make for an awesome fight.

              Saying that, if Lara is serious about this, he should ask GBP to step aside for this fight so he can fight on HBO. Calling out a HBO fighter while professing your love/loyalty to Showtime rings slightly hollow.

                Off topic, but how dumb can people be to realize "calling out" and saying someone is their "dream" fight are two different things. GGG's never actually called out Floyd. He's already said the fight with Floyd is impossible. ****ing Christ you people are morons. I would go on but don't feel like it. But aside from that, I hope this fight gets made so at least one side of the fan base shuts the hell up, hopefully.

                  him not fighting someone in the top 50 p4p is an indication of how weak the middleweight division is.

                      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.
                      He's already done that numerous times. Canelo very obviously is not interested.


                      Lara:


                      "I did what Canelo couldn't do," Lara told Showtime's Jim Gray through an interpreter. "I dominated Trout and I dropped him. Now we have to make a fight that everyone wants to see which is me against Canelo."




                      Erislandy Lara dominated Austin Trout last night, beating him easier than Canelo Alvarez did earlier this year. Now, Lara wants the big fight showdown with the young Mexican superstar.
