          While I understand the cold war situation, I don't like that Loaffler isn't showing any willingness to make an honest effort to make a Lara fight. Lara's team just can't call and ask HBO to put him against Golovkin. Loaffler needs to push for it otherwise he's just part of the problem.

            How hard is it for some people to understand that HBO holds the broadcast rights to Golovkin's fights in North America. Lara is a GB fighter and GB is not doing business with HBO at all.

            Also, don't kid yourselves. Lara would get flattened, and easily. To say otherwise would be downright silly and ignorant. He is stepping up to 160 against the biggest puncher in the sport, who also happens to be a very good boxer.

                I would be a step in the right direction for the two networks. Even if for one fight.

                  Never hurts to ask right? But I would think this would need to meet the approval of GBP and Showtime as well, since he in under contract.

                    Get real.

                    You are right. I don't think people realize what happens when you force yourself to move up in weight. Just as the article pointed out, look at what happened to Kirkland. His only loss came to a fighter GGG destroyed in 3. But he moved up in weight cold. You cant just go putting on pounds beyond your natural weight for a fight and expect to perform.

                    People also aren't paying attention to the fact that fighters have obligations to networks and promotional companies. If HBO says you fight on a certain date against a certain opponent, while the fighter, team, and promotional company have say... that network is really going to dictate things. You can't just jump into the ring with whomever just like that.
