    Make It Happen! Lara been calling GGG out for over a YEAR NOW! Also remember Lara calling out Sergio Martinez when everybody was allegedly "Avoiding Him!"

    Don't matter who you think would win, why not just make it happen? Lara is better than anybody GGG has fought so far that is not even debatable. Tom Loeffler in a few hours or tomorrow will reply once again "Not Interested In Lara Bout"

        But remind me how much Lara is getting for Ishe Smith and Delvin? Doubt he's breaking the bank.

        Haymons job is to get his fighters the most money but at the same time that's not always been the case. Sometimes his own personal agendas get in the way. Case in point, Quillin vs Korobov for $1.4m for Peter. They dropped the belt and Peter ended up fighting for $500k against Andy Lee instead. A move that proved costly for Quillin.
        True. Circumstances determined that move. That's not what HBO is doing.

        HBO has decided not to pay Haymon fighters what they make other places. When they signed canelo, for example, they agreed to match and exceed what he was getting.

        If you are not going to do same for Haymon fighters, you are saying you can't fight here, just in a nice way.

          That's not true. He made more for those fights by signing with Showtime.

            What circumstances? Oh yeah! Roc Nation winning the purse bid and Haymon refusing to allow Quillin to take the fight, forcing him to vacate his title.

                It would be a real fun to watch Lara vs Mayweather: they both would run :-)

                  They did try to make it the first time Lara called out Golovkin, and the networks squashed it. I don't know if they'd do so again, but both sides should try.

                    lara, you are not getting a ppv fight unless you become more exciting.


                    who the hell wants to see alvarez / lara again?

                    it was a close, awful fight, and canelo got the nod.

                      golovkin would F#CKING DESTROY lara. lara's people used to claim that he could make 147 lbs. at any rate, he's a smallish JMW.


                      did you guys close your eyes for the angulo fight?
