Comments Thread For: Erislandy Lara Open To Facing Andy Lee For WBO Belt

[DannYankee]

Interesting fight. Lara serious about going up and face the best it seems.Why the hell not he has 0 left to prove at 154 he can obviously still make the weight too, but for who? No sense on staying at 154 picking on people he wants to go up to chase the boogey man.

honestly nobody cares about Laras next fight

he wants a fight but doesnt fight lol, he should just retire, boxing is also entertainment supposed to entertain the audience, to most he doesnt , hes irrelevant

"But he would go to 160 if Andy Lee wins. He would fight Andy. And if that doesn't happen, then we'd try to get a fight with Golovkin."

So they aren't going after Golovkin right now, only if they can't get Lee?

obviously trying to win a title so ggg and the media will quit ducking them instead of dan rafeal trying his damnedest to make carl froch ggg fight maybe he'll tweet some lara vs ggg news..

beat his style or STFU..when angulo made him do more he done more..canelo's body shots wouldnt have had a close score card if lara was a name...lara felt that wasnt enought o do more..canelo landed 15 head shots....one cut doesnt win u a fight when u eat jabs and straigth lefts all night compared to body work that doesnt slow the man down by round 12...lara was still fresh the cut slowed him down more than the body work did..by the 12th he looked like he was in the 5th round all over again

AFAIK they've never approached GGG's people, and they're supposed to be the ones chasing the fight. Remember him manager saying they'd contact them after Rodriguez? Then nothing. Maybe it's one of those, they want GGG, just not next. Very popular.

GGG's resume says he needs the fight more..and i dont remember that comment you just posted about the manager..and if they do contact and get no answer wat are they to do then...i'm sure ggg has one repsons i have my hands full with cotto nothing to report here..the fact is lara is gong to try to win a belt to forcde that issue..and lara vs lee is a pretty good fight seeing that lee only gets stopped by pressure fighters..its hard to outbox him

Lara been calling out Golovkin for 2 years, Golovkin won't even acknowledge him. Time to force the issue by winning a title at 160, isn't this what Golovkin fans told him to do? Now they're going to change their minds and use it against him.

Easy to call out a guy that you have zero percent chance of facing due to conflicts with your promoters. It takes a real man to do that. Lara got his big chance against Canelo and dropped the ball. To me, in that fight he showed that he had no heart after talking so much smack. He's very boring and outside of the Cuban boxing community a relatively small number of boxing fans are actually interested in seeing him perform, which makes him not very marketable.

I don't think I would even watch the fight (if it happens) versus Andy Lee it would be so dreadfully boring. And why would GGG want to fight him anyways? Lara would just run for 12 rounds and then complain about gettting screwed out of a decision. That's not going to advance GGG's or anyone else's career one bit. The bottom line is: despite his tremendous skill set Lara already got his big opportunity and blew it.

more like nobody wants to deal with his style for 12 rounds..if ggg beat lara and ko'd him every ggg fanbody in this comment thread would have it as their GIF. pic...when ppl question ggg's resume they'd point right to lara so that calls BS on your "nobody cares about him" mess..nobody wants to see their favorite fighter in a close fight. not saying lara will win, but i obviously have more belief in GGG than his own fans. or maybe i just dont have my ******** wide open for him ya know

the career advancement argument aye?? are u his manager or a fan of the sport? u ppl i tell ya..competitive fights dont come a dime a dozen and then when they do one gy cant be a boxer, both guys have to be popular, one guy cant be a certain age, one guy cant be a certain weight....blah, blah, and blah...and i bet your consistency in these things are slim to none..i bet u want andrade title gone if he dont fight lara tho...thats wat i'm talkin about..tell me how andrade's career goes anywhere from fight lara...be his manager too..
