I another easy million dollars coming up for Lara , Thank to WBA ranking


Willie Monroe Jr is free to fight him at 160

Paul Williams fought Lara with his jaw back and hands down and took everything Lara had without going down. Lara deserved to win of course, but got robbed. The fight shows Lara's lack of power against a MW though. GGG walks through Lara and demolishes him.

Decubas:

"We are analyzing the possibility of going to middleweight. We will be watching every fight...Jacobs-Quillin, Lee-Saunders, Cotto-Canelo and Golovkin."

What exactly is Decubas waiting for? Jacobs is available. Quillin is available. Lee is available. There are no network issues to deal with.

It's been 3 months since Lara's last fight against Zaveck. By this time fans are supposed to be hearing something.

Why is the media not following this up? This is the guy that people say could potentially dethroned the great Golovkin.

Yeah WTF is going on? I thought Lara has been calling out "lil g" for 2 years now and "lil g" and his team were scared stiff? What better way to get the lil chump than to move up to his division and corner him. Make the move, stalk your prey and claim your kill!!!!!!!!


"Lil g" picking on smaller guys doe!

Team lil G is busy with their mandatory obligations right now. What fans are expecting for Lara is taking on the other guys they mentioned, Jacobs, Lee, Quillin. Which are all in-house fights and pretty easy to make. Unless they're just dropping names to bull**** people.

Well, is Lara moving up or what? Speak up Decubas! Stop defrauding the fans.

I don't mind these Haymon clowns fighting bums every fight. But when they bull**** fans telling everyone they want big names, then proceed to fight bums, what do you expect?

I'd pick Lara to beat Quillin or Jacobs.

Yup

Do you live an alternate reality where Lara isn't a slick cuban southpaw that makes everyone look terrible, and all the big names are lining up to fight him?

If you want something in life you do something about it, not just tweet. Tell these clowns to keep their BS to themselves and not tell the world about it. Especially if all they can do is tweet.

Mmmmmmm...

[tokon]

But hes not really that high a risk. Hes 7-2-2 in the last 5 years with no significant wins. What exactly is the risk involved with fighting him? The problem is, he doesn't want to have to fight anyone since Saul. He thinks hes a big stage fighter who deserves big fights. When he does get a big fight, he schits the bed.

Got no disagreement wityh what you say there!

I think Golovkin's team see Lara primarily as a fight that brings no real reward, financial or otherwise, as well as a style that probably makes for an unattractive fight.
