    and people REALLY want to see the glass-chinned Lara vs. Golovkin. LOL
    Yet floyd would have to sell out and pressure to win.has a low punch output and would touch laras chin very much. Tmt protection clause. Stay away from lara. Stay undefeated

    Lmao

      Boxing fans are too ****** now to appreciate that Chess Match so it will never happen. But since he is fighting on CBS and the fight will be free...Why Not?!?

        Lara is not trying to fight GGG, he is just using his name for the free media attention. He is not as ****** as his fans and knows very well that he cannot fight on HBO.

        If Floyd was to fight Lara, it should be on PPV and promoted as a cure for insomnia. A fight guaranteed to put even the most hyper of individuals to sleep almost immediately. They could package the video and sell it in pharmacies as a sleep aid.

          Easy to make if they really want to.

          Put Thurman and Brook in the undercards and people will pay to go for it. Add Broner vs Berto and the entertainment will be complete.

            Why not? Lara doesn't have an exclusive network deal that would prevent it. HBO has said they will put on Haymon fighters "if the price is right". So, if HBO/Haymon agree on a purse, the only thin preventing it would be GGG and his team.

            Well then you should explain this to the TS as a reason you do not think a Floyd/lara fight should be made.

              Tmt fans are completely against this. Berto is a beast in their slurping opinions.

                I really could care less who Lara fights, or if he fights again frankly.

                  This isn't about who wins or loses, this is the fight for the ages for all of the so called hardcore boxing fans. This is the fight that would exemplify what boxing is all about to the purists who constantly shout everyday, "boxing is about hit and not get hit", "its boxing not knockouts", "I love the chessmatch fights", "technical matches aren't boring to me because I love the skill and technique and if you don't, you don't know **** about boxing".

                    Deflect from the topic one more time, and you're outta here. Talk about Floyd vs Lara. You have been among the most vocal about "smart fighting", "skills win fights", "technical aspects don't bore". So tell us, why aren't you pushing hard for this fight?

                      Berto is the better fight.
