    GGG/Lara

    If GGG can fight Adama, who had a slim to none chance, in Monte Carlo, not televised by HBO, why can't he fight Lara under the same conditions? Lara clearly called him out and I really see Lara giving him the most problems out of any 154-160 fighter. How is Lara not a name but Adama and Stevens are? Not sitting her bashing on anyone it just makes no sense to me

      There is no chance in hell Golden Boy agrees to a Golovkin/Lara fight off of US TV.

        Sounds like there are doubts in the GGG camp if you ask me. He complains about people "ducking" him but the only oppoments he is wanting to fight are punching bags. Dont get me wrong i like GGG but i am slowly starting to see the "match making" tactics used. I really hope this year he fights Quillin, Martinez, Lara, or even Chavez JR. No more tune ups

          The matchmaking where all the top MWs are rejecting fights with him?

            Including Quillin and Martinez.

            New way to hate on Golovkin. Say he's ducking people there's slim to no chance he'll get to fight, and ignore how they ducked him when the fight was possible.

              Quillin is a Showtime fighter as well. Seems you don't quite grasp the whole HBO Golden Boy fued.

              Anyways, Golovkin is under contract with HBO, like Russian said his next three fights. They offered Geale and James Kirkland shots in April, both were rejected. So GGG will fight whoever in April, then hopefully Geale or Kirkland after than, and maybe Martinez at the end of the year after he beats Cotto.

                  Martinez has been out quite a while and has been on the record Golovkin is next after Cotto.
                  Quillin has a contract with Showtime and has fought same opposition if not betteropponents then him. If he cant fight them wouldnt Lara or even Chavez JR be the best opponents available? Why not fight them?

                    I do understand the feud. But according to several articles there may be hope as far as ending th cold war... So like i said "hopefully" he fights them
