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

[Robbie Barrett]

Then tell Lara to pick up the phone and tell Haymon about it. Tell him to do something already doe and stop yapping. Beggars can't be choosers, just as job applicants should fill up an application form first. If you want something from a person, make the first move. Boring runners are not even worth any boxer's time.

Read the article his people are already discussing it. Time for Golovkin to tell his people he wants the fight.

and here we go again, a fighter most fans dislike calling on a fighter most fans like but the likable fighter's fan-who are sure their fighter will ko the unlikable fighter-will make all the arguments in the world as to why that fight should not happen.

Makes no sense to me.

One day they go "Everybody is ducking GGG....waaahhhh"

But when a top fighter calls out GGG those cries turn to "Stop calling out GGG. Leave him alone."

The most confused fambase in boxing right now.

Notice how in that sentence about making the opponent frustrated and make mistakes he makes no mention of making them pay.

Oh so Floyd can tell HBO to release GGG from his exclusive deal and have him fight on Showtime PPV?

Are you sure about that?

Problem is I didn't say that. I'm saying that if Floyd wanted the fight, they'd find some way to make it. I didn't say what way it would get made, you've assumed one for me.

Why is it that posters will not ask GGG to navigate the political landscape and make a Lara fight happen but then turn around and suggest Floyd navigate the same politics to make a GGG fight?

[BendOver]

Yes we are sick of Golovkin completely ignoring the guy that's been calling him out for a couple of years.

you are right, some "fans" are forgetting that this is been going on for a few years now, and ggg has always decline...

Canelo fought Lara when Haymon was in the process of destroying Golden Boy Promotions and Richard Schaefer got fired. If GGG wants the fight they can and will make it happen.

Fighters can defeat the politics if they choose to.

He's been with Haymon since Vanes and he wasn't with GBP at that time.There is even an interview with him insulting GBP and praising Al Haymon weeks before the fight.

No the problem here is that you pretend to know what HBO execs would and wouldnt do for Floyd, when clearly you have no idea.

For all we know, HBO wouldnt take that risk.

So no, it isnt all about what shots Floyd calls.
