GGG's promoter tweets Golovkin's response to Lara...

[Citizen Koba]

if he moved down and fought him, he'd look really good

Well, yeah, to people who know the sport it'd be impressive, but unless he's actually planning a more prmanent move down to 154 (which he ain't) it'd just be a pointless diversion.

Nah - Laras done the calling and GGGs the bigger draw - it can only be 160 and HBO (assuming Lara can get GBP/ SHO to agree at all or decides to jump ship).

It's a fair question from Loeffler though - given the promotional war, it ain't gonna be an easy fight to make, and Lara might just be jerking around or simply unaware of how much he might have to give up to make it,

The people who aren't pushing for Lara will have Andy Lee's blood on their hands. #Pray4AndyLee

ANDY LEE. For the love god. ANDY LEE.

I agree... wtf is this B.S?

K2 and Ducklovkin duck Murray, Geale, Kirkland, Lara and everyone else and are probably going to fight Lee. Dude refuses to face top competition and it's just embarrassing.

Lara's a joke

It's not really fair. If u are gonna mkeep mentioning the promotional war then stop talking about fights like quillin and mayweather. U can't have it both ways.

GGG and his team act like they are being ducked by everybody but it's him and his team that are ducking people. People know Lara who is the last guy he fought? Forgot his name already. He fought Rosado who had several losses, prosoma and a honda engineer. GGG doesn't have me fooled by KOing mediocre guys.

Nothing but excuses by Tom Loeffler. Seriously, I'm a fan of GGG and I think he fought the best possible opposition to date, but this is ******ed.

It's crystal clear that Lara would be the best opponent to date for GGG. He was a great amateur and had good performances against well respected opposition at the pros.

That's not how you negotiate, Tom. "He's with Showtime" is just a lame excuse. Just make the man an offer to fight on HBO. If Lara/GBP turns it down you can went on the record and say it's not possible. But how you act right now does not only make you look bad but also your fighter GGG.

I guess GGG can hand over the title of the most feared fighter to Lara. Sorry, but that's the truth. I'm a very disappointed fan right now.

So now it is possible for HBO and showtime to make fights? Interesting ....

Also what's wrong with Lee he might get KD but he always gets back up....j/k

I understand GGG response.

1. They didnt made their names against best in divisions
2. One of them will end his carrier. This is 50/50 fight
3. In terms of money this is 500k dollars maximum. Whereas are champions in their divisions are making 10th billions.
