Comments Thread For: Left-Handed Lara: Golovkin Will Never Fight Me Now

Hell go to 154 for a 40 yr old brittle hands Mayweather. ..but not Lara or Canelo .. he'll go to 168 for fat ass Chavez, but not Ward ...

Triple Duck

and Froch. Priority is MW. Huge money fights are worth the effort to go up and down in weight.

Makes sense. Canelo has been fighting at MW and he'll be fighting the MW champ soon. So no point in moving down for him.

The fight was a draw.

Fair enough, I had him losing but far from a robbery.

Lara talking facts

Unlike alvared. Lara will actually fight GGG. But triple G needs to stop using smaller weight class big names to duck andre ward.

Canelo would fight GGG, but not before fighting Cotto, understandably. GGG benefits from fighting Canelo while Canelo and Cotto benefit more from fighting each other rather than fighing GGG. They benefit financially and in popularity as well as a huge PPV attraction/event with 1.5 million buys or more written all over it. GGG vs Canelo or Cotto would be one of those decently popular 400-600k PPV, not a huge event just a big break for GGG.

It would basically be a charity to GGG and his team. Cotto is wrong for staying at 160 to fight Geale though, as if he deserved the lineal title shot. This guy just got beat up by GGG and can potentionally win the MW ring title moments after getting destroyed. Really not fair, just leave after the Martinez fight or fight GGG.

But yeah, Canelo has proved time after time that he would fight who ever the fans think is his new boogieman. He did it when everyone was on Trout **** and then on Lara, Canelo was accused of ducking both and fought both. He will do the same with GGG as soon as he gets Cotto out of the way.

And Ward needs to go up himself. For chrissakes he can't even make 168 for his upcoming fight. Just move up to 175 man and be done with it.

why not ggg vs clottey

Seriously?

[elishua F]

Seriously?

Lol .. can ggg crack that shell?. i mean who is he gonna fight next, hes not getting nelo or cotto no time soon.why not clottey ..

Lol at people believing the nonsense that appears on Lara's managed social media accounts.

Lara has never called anyone out. Lara's management, however, always utilize Lara's managed social media accounts and press releases in Lara`s name, to promote him in the media, usually by name associating him with as many popular fighters as possible.

They've name associated him with GGG, Mayweather, Pacquiao, Cotto, and when Keith Thurman-Robert Guerrero did over 4 million views on CBS, they called Thurman out, too.

Its just a form of promotion that gets people talking about a fighter and that sees web pages being indexed by Google via topic title. So, for example, when people search for `GGG` they'll eventually find Lara's name cropping up.

Many boxers, under instruction of managers and promoters, and of their own free will, do this regularly as a means of promotion/self promotion.

It wouldn't be so effective, especially in the case of Lara, if people didn't actually believe that boxing fights were made by boxers calling each other out, but they do and so it is.

Well done Lara's management!

All of them have their social media accounts managed by PR.

That Canelo tweet, is so obviously PR its not even funny. GGG barely knows English, so obviously someone wrote that for him.

This is quite common actually.

Other than maybe 6 mayweather/ward stans on this site, nobody wants to see this fight. Lara had his chance to really showcase himself against Canelo and he ran all around the ring in a borefest. No interest in seeing him bore us to death again.
