    Why say that if you're not going to follow up on it? That's my issue.

    Munson is the most convenient available opponent because he's a submissive bum who'll accept whatever Team GGG are offering and then roll over in the ring to make GGG look like a monster.

    K2 won't dig into their pockets or go through the hassle of even TRYING to put together a slightly more complicated fight against Lara.

    But they'll still use Lara's name and "Cuban style, slick southpaw mover" to promote this farce.
    It's called self advertising.

    Lara isn't worth digging into their pocket because, like I said, he fights on SHO and isn't much of a draw. It's just not worth it, simple as that.

      Right and Golovkin's team should be rightfully criticised for that which is what I'm doing here.

      I'd understand more if he'd had some stellar career but he's fought nobody and achieved next to nothing at 32 years old. They shouldn't be in any position to say turn their noses up at a guy like Lara and claim he is not worth the hassle.

      It's called bull****ting the fans and trying to create a myth that there's no one who they can fight. Thank you. Thread justified.

        yes he should fight lara..a guy thats not a draw, thats not a name, brings in no fans, is a 154 pound fighter, and even if golovkin beats lara will get 0 credit for the win because he was just a 154 pound fighter. sounds like a great option for ggg, youre absolutely right

            You're pointing out the obvious, you want a gold star for that?

            I'd understand more if he'd had some stellar career but he's fought nobody and achieved next to nothing at 32 years old. They shouldn't be in any position to say turn their noses up at a guy like Lara and claim he is not worth the hassle.
            He's already the bigger star, the A side. They can do what they want. Again, it's prizefighting.

            It's called bull****ting the fans and trying to create a myth that there's no one who they can fight. Thank you. Thread justified.
            Welcome to Boxing 2015, captain self righteous. Two gold stars - one for the effort, the other one for staying up for 3 days straight.

                I seem to be the only one willing to "point out the obvious".

                NSB is a full on Golovkin love-in most of the time.

                  To be honest, this thread has made me love Golovkin a little less, all thanks to you.

                      A MW HBO approves. You know, the guys that pay the bills and don't work with Lara's "advisor" Haymon
