Comments Thread For: Lara Eyes October Return, Still Wants Gennady Golovkin

[Robbie Barrett]

Where is the response from Tom Loeffler? Is he ok?

"This is ground control to Major Tom.....can you hear me Major Tom? Can you hear me Major Tom?"

He's finding another tin can
For HBO
There's nothing he can do
Golovkin won't fight Ward too

Haymon can't even make Thurman vs Alexander, he made Thurman vs Bundu. Or Thurman vs Maidana/Porter/Brook. What makes you clowns think Haymon would be amenable to cross HBO's fence? And these jokers know it, yet they keep dropping big names.


Stop this nonsense.

Only if Froch would step up this won't be happening, but he a warrior doe, he earned it doe, Super Six runner up doe.

The same lot want him to fight Lara, so say he win they have a manufactured excuse ready "he beat a LMW". Pathetic display of fanboyism.

Randomly attacking Froch in a thread about Lara-GGG just because you don't like some things Froch said about Amir Khan in the past

A whole new world of fanboyism. Cox-Orifice, the ultimate stan from Pakistan.

Now that Floyd has beaten Manny your new thing is going after Haymon. Do you even like boxing?

You've admitted to being a coke head, so I normally excuse your behavior and these weird delusions about me.

What exactly are you doing now to me? Khan in a thread about Lara-GGG? Contr"addictions" just like your hero.

You should know there wasn't anyone available in May. Quillin/Lee, Ndam/Lemeiux, Lara/Rodriguez, Cotto/Geale, Canelo/Kirkland were all set. Even the 172 pound division was tied up -- Chavez/Fonfara, Ward/Smith. Only person available was Froch at 168 but he wasn't interested in fighting anyone.

So we knew going in Golovkin was going to have a step down fight for May after Murray because of the above fights taking place. The options were Monroe, Heiland & Johnson. You can check the old 'Who should GGG fight in May" threads where it was discussed at length. Options were very slim.

They seem to be taking their time right now, trying to secure a bigger name. They also said their willing to wait longer than normal in order to get a bigger fight, so we'll see if anyone steps up to the plate seriously.

And that's the exact reason why this fight should happen. Cotto is fighting Canelo, Froch is trolling fans when he intends to retire, they have no interest in moving up to fight Ward, DeGale, Zurdo, Abraham/Stieglitz, the Dirrell Brothers, etc. Lemieux isn't fighting him this year, Lee is fighting Saunders. So there won't be a unification at MW in 2015. Tureano Johnson is going after another belt last I read.

So your best options are:

1. Erislandy Lara - The #1 ranked fighter at 154
2. Jorge Sebastian Heiland - Is this a step up from Monroe?
3. Hassan N'Dam - Tough SOB but we already know the outcome

[RaTaTa]

Hate it or love it,Lara is not coward like Canela and Cotta.

[BendOver]

Typical Haymon fighter. Mention big names, then fight bums.
Thurman, Quillin, Stevenson... What a joke.

Lara's resume $h1ts on ggg and he has fought MW in the past, being calling ggg for 3+ years...
