    OK let's say for a minute this is glaring: Why then is all of the top guys not walking but running from this guy? They must see something we don't huh?

        exactly. too many fans on here DKSAB. GGG's peers see what the knowledgeable fans to. Dude is legit. Just needs to step in w/ an elite opponent to make his name. If Golovkin wasn't legit, other big name boxers would be stepping up

          Really? What fights has he declined? And no, ignoring Lara's manager pretending to be Lara on twitter and posting crap is not declining a fight.

          Because the top fighters who watch his fights actually see what these fools are unable to... and that is the fact that GGG's defense is not suspect at all and that he is not easy to hit. In fact, he is one of the most difficult fighters to hit in the sport.

I mean surely if these fans and keyboard warriors can see how crap Golovkin is then the likes of Roach and Cotto will see it even MORE clearly.

            Why don't Canelo just swoop in and pick up that easy title either? After all Golovkin aint that good right? Instead we get Kirkland and Geale. I personally wouldn't mind either guy taking a soft touch in Golovkin as he has a title after all. What are these guys waiting for??
            Amen BDW! Such easy work why are all these top guys not going for the easy pickings? LOL

              Lara is better and more of a name than anybody he has faced. When asked, they said that wasn't a fight they'd entertain, but yet he'll fight all the trash he's been fighting with no problem. If Lara is bluff then call his bluff and that'll be the end of that.

                One more time for one more idiot.

                Lara fights at 154. GGG at 160. And no, there is not enough money in that fight for GGG to drop down and GGG does not do catchweights.

                Lara is signed to Haymon and cannot fight on HBO. His next fight is on Spike.
                GGG has an exclusive contract with HBO.

                There is no bluff to call because anyone with one brain cell should be intelligent enough that this fight is not going to happen anytime soon, at the very least not until Lara moves on from behind the Haymon Protection Agency walls.

                This is the last time I will bother to post about Lara. People can live with their delusions if they wish as nothing anyone says is able to get into their pea sized brains.

                  He's fighting complete bums - he shouldn't be getting hit at all!

                  Guys like Curtis Stevens, Martin Murray and then Willie Jr were landing on him without too much trouble and the worst part is that he doesn't fight backing up, he just eats the punches. If he does that with a big 168lber like Froch or someone, he'll be in serious trouble.

                  So why does Golovkin's promoter keep saying after every fight that the Lara fight is a possibility? Surely he should say it's not possible if that's truly the case.

                  Make Haymon an offer. Call their bluff. And if it gets turned down, all you GGG fans can start wanking off more about how another guy is scared of him. What is there to lose?

                    Because of the weight he is in. That's what happens. They take his punches much better. But if a MW comes up to 168 to fight Abraham, he most likely will feel the power. That's why I said AA hasn't been a force at SMW in a while. Even though he is not, he is still better than the top 10 MW's. That was my point.

                      I haven't seen GGG declining at all - he fights the same style in all of his fights? He's always taken one to give two - even in the earlier days. That's what makes him so damn exciting.
