Erislandy Lara Calls Out Golovkin.. AGAIN

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Lol how would we know? Roman Gonzalez would be the best opponent Golovkin has ever faced too but he's not a middleweight. Granted 154 is obviously a lot closer but we have no idea if Willie Monroe is a better test or Martin Murray is a better test because of size alone and because they are actually middleweights. If Lara had some power or had an amazing chin size wouldn't be as big of an issue but we're talking about a guy who was getting tossed around the ring like a rag doll against Angulo, so guys like Murray who had the size were more durable.

You mean guys like Murray were slower with zero footwork and just there to survive and take punches. Which is exactly the style of opponent that Team Golovkin look for. "Durable" is code for easy to hit.

GGG fans dropping excuses left and right lately.

This is exactly all Lara would do. Would still be a nice fight if it can happen.

it so transparent what the pbc is doing. they are appealing to the ignorant who don't know anything about boxing. real fans know lara isn't fighting on hbo for the simple fact that haymon won't let him. what lara should be doing is calling out pbc fighters since those are the only guys he can fight. guys like charlo, vanes, etc...but he's not doing that because he wants that easy money. calling out ggg is easy since it will never happen. delvin rodrigeuz and now jan zaveck? yea ok this guy isn't a serious fighter

Lets deal in what we do actually know to be fact and not conjecture. Abel Sanchez confirmed that he himself turned down the fight after being approached with it by Loeffler.

Lara would move but he'd actually punch Golovkin back. Murray was just there to stand still and be a punchbag for 10 or 11 rounds.

Hell, I can tell you the answer to that right now.
He's not serious. He doesn't really want this fight.

The media needs to pepper this guy with questions like: Have you asked Haymon to make this fight for you? Have you reached out to GG management team? What are you willing to do that Quillin was not willing to? Surely you're not saying you're just going to sit on your ass and hand over the fight to you on a silver platter, do you? Beggars can't be choosers, ya know.

Anything you want to ask if you were in the media? This fight has to happen. The running would entertain me to no end.

Team Lara can run their mouth all they want. I will say that if they do fight lara has some serious balls. I expect G monster to be too much for him, or any other fighter on or around 160.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

We knew he'd stomp out all the mediocre competition he's faced so far also. That didn't stop those fights from happening. Why should it stop this one?

LOL....exactly. At least Lara has pedigree and it would be an interesting clash of styles. We know Team GGG doesn't have the arsehole to move up to 168 so who better than Lara assuming the Cotto/Canelo winner probably won't fight until the summer at least.

[Basco]

I like Lara and everything but GGG would totally stomp his azz. Come on.

Totally agree!

What Lara have you been watching? And no, Murray actually moved, he was getting cut off alot, like Lara would be, and it'd look a bit like Golovkin-Lara because of that high guard Lara uses when running, difference is Murray was willing to let his hands go, throw combinations, throw body punches, Lara will just potshot unless Golovkin is just sitting infront of him like Angulo, but he wont be, he'll keep him at arms length. Murray is also alot longer and bigger than Lara too.

Honestly don't see the challenge, Lara will show up and all he'll do is run and try to survive, he won't do anything to Golovkin besides maybe a good left here and there early when he still has his confidence in him, and Golovkin will eat it up and likely not lose a round.

Golovkins toughest challenge would be Cotto IMO, too bad he's so small, likely gets ***ed over by the jab.
