    I don't think it's trolling at all to ask Golovkin's people to look at the next best challenger when they are turned down by others. Isn't that simply logical?

      And Ward would stop the bum eater
      It has little to do with "drawing power" and more to do with the relation of drawing power to purse demands. Monroe, who has little if any drawing power, accepted $100,000 to fight GGG. Lara, who also has little to no drawing power, just got $1 million to fight Delvin Rodriguez, according to reports.

      So the problem is this: If Monroe and Lara each generate about the same amount of revenue, where exactly is the extra $900,000 going to come from to pay Lara, and thats assuming he would fight GGG for the same money he got for Rodriguez, which is not likely......

        Lara is a no one. Stop trying to use him as if he's some boogieman, he's irrelevant to everyone other than to a handful of GGG haters.
        I was talking about styles. Murray has a very negative, boring style but he was OK for GGG to fight....yet no to Lara who is clearly a better fighter?

          I'm not even a fan of GGG just telling you its hard to market a fight against Lara. Yes Lara has name , but it's for all the wrong reasons. Much rather a guy with little to no name so you can market it as come see GGG fight. Any fight with Lara has negative stigma of this will be boring ugly fight and the risk of turning away fans. Don't believe me look at the Spike TV ratings 2 weeks ago or look at the attendance for that fight. Or hear the boos for a fight promoted as a showcase for Lara.

            OK well lets hold him to that. After his "Mandatory" it better not be any excuses! So it doesn't look as if GGG vs Lemieux is happening this year either.

            I only get on GGG Resume when his fans start to make crazy claims but it is really not his fault. Other things just seem to always come up for other Middleweights when GGG name comes up

              I don't even know who you are but for some reason, you are severely affected by my posts.
              I know who you are , because in every page of every thread that has GGG in it , i see your posts its depressing to read actually but like a car accident i read them anyway , your level is on par with pigeons lately.

              You didnt answer the question , do you feel GGG is ducking Lara because YOU think he is going to lose ?

If HBO has higher rating so ******** what for that fight. That would be leverage and Lara would be the man for beating the so called man in front of a bigger audience dyck head. I said that but of course you would try and twist my words like the idiot you are. Maybe you need reading comprehension dumb ass.

                Bottom line Lara/Ward beat the shyt out of ggg! And team ggg Loeffler don't want that work period.
                Ward might beat GGG, because he's bigger and a proven elite level champ. But Lara? Do me a fucking favour mate.

                      I would favour Golovkin to win the fight but Lara would clearly be the best fighter he has ever shared a ring with.

                      I want to see Golovkin potentially tested and made to feel awkward or uncomfortable. I want to see him in a so called "ugly fight" where he has to deal with an awkward style.

                      Mowing down toilet cleaners one after the other doesn't interest me.
