I don't see how Jacobs not wanting to fight Lara (and the only reason why Jacobs vs Lara wouldn't happen) proves that Lara's GGG callout was fake. I fail to see the connection.

People were initially excited for the prospect of Lara vs GGG when Lara first called GGG out because GGG was supposed to be the fearless monsters willing to get in the ring with anyone. Two guys no one want to fight fighting each other? **** yeah! But the fearless monster feels more like a facade now.

Lara called out GG (allegedly). Yes? GG is a HBO fighter. Yes?
Lara called out Quillin/Jacobs winner. Yes? They're both PBC/SHO/Haymon fighters. Yes? Which is the easier direction do you think Lara should go? And where is he now?

If Lara is serious about moving up, Jacob or Quillin would be the easiest fight(s) to make due to Haymon.
He's a good fighter, has a style to frustrate Jacobs. I'd like to see how he deals with the bigger guys first. But I think he is competitive with them.

You literally said "promotional divide" in the post I replied to. What are you going on about?

I, on the other hand, am saying it's not an easy fight to make. Sharing the same manager doesn't automatically make a fight easy to make. The biggest obstacle in making fights is fighters wanting to fight each other. If Lara vs Jacobs doesn't happen, it would be because Jacobs doesn't want it, not because Lara doesn't want it as you implied.
GGG has the reputation of being willing to fight everyone. Jacobs does not. The easiest fight for Lara to make should be against guys who are willing to get in the ring with him. That's why there's been so much ruckus about GGG fighting Lara on the forum. GGG the fearless monster should theoretically be willing to get in the ring with Lara, but it seems that reputation has likely been exaggerated.

So there's no chance this fight happens, huh? Even though there will be no politics involved in this case, huh? No HBO to deal with, no K2, no Arum, etc.
Both are PBC/SHO/Haymon fighters. Both are available. Lara basically called out the winner of Quillin/Jacobs when he was promoting his Zaveck fight.
So what's the problem? Can we now conclude they are ducking each other? Which is based on Haymon fanboys' standard of how duckages are determined. This one even exceeds the standards by miles.Last edited by jqSide; 01-18-2016, 03:52 AM.

Would be a good but, I'd lean tentatively toward Laga on points, but he would have to be 100% on form and focused.
It's a 60:40 fight in my book and an intriguing match up.

Where in Neptune is Lara? Why is he not pursuing Jacobs?
He called out the Quillin/Jacobs winner when he was promoting his Zaveck fight, and now he's barely mentioning Jacobs. Anyone in the media please ask him about Jacobs?
Lara wants Jacobs-Quillin winner
