    you forgot that Floyd would only face canelo with a catchweight, even though he had won titles at 154 twice before......

      Isn't Lara with Haymon and GGG with HBO?

      Anyway, the minute GGG KTFO of Lara at 160, haters will say: fighting JMW this hyped GGG.

        So your saying geale and lemuix were bigger names? Maybe elsewhere, but not here in America.
        I'm telling you that Lara is neither the best nor the most well known name on GGG's resume.

        You're saying he's a big star in America?

        So how many people watched his last fight, on free to air TV?

        I'll tell you - about 1/3 as many as watched Cotto/Canelo on PPV!

          Lara and GGG can't fight because Haymon and HBO won't work together. THAT'S THE REASON WHY IT CANNOT HAPPEN. god some of you people are ****** as ****

            Are HBO and PBC currently doing business?
            If they are please name the fights because I would love to watch them. As of right now HBO is not negotiating with PBC, who knows it may change in the coming months, but as of now they are not doing business. It's that simple.

            People are so quick to say that Loma should move up since he doesn't really have anyone to fight at 126, which I actually agree with, and they also want GGG to move up to 168. GGG will have the same problem at 168 that Lomachenko is currently having at 126.
            People are so quick to criticize GGG about not moving up, but they don't want to point out that he probably won't be able to fight any of the top guys at 168. There aren't that many top names like most people think to begin with and the few big names are on the other side.
            He won't get credit for beating a Gilberto Ramirez I'll tell you that. At least not right now.

            If Lara really wants it then maybe he should talk to Al and see what he could do. Who knows maybe he'll be open to it and HBO and Haymon could start working together.

                Because GGG's goal is to unify the middleweight title, not to put a name on his resume that impresses you. If Lara had a middleweight belt GGG would fight him and knock his damn head off. A better question is why is Lara fighting such garbage fighters since he lost to Canelo? He has defended his title against 3 unranked nobodies in a row now. Lara is the guy who needs to improve his resume. GGG has never lost or even been in a close fight and he just knocked out a champion. Lara, in contrast has two losses and two draws. Lara should target Jacobs who is also managed by Haymon. If he beats Jacobs he will have a belt that GGG wants and he will get that fight with GGG he claims he wants. Right now GGG has no logical reason to fight him. He is an unexciting runner who doesn't bring in much money and he does nothing to help GGG in his quest to unify the middleweight division.

                  Since he's not getting Alvarez, if he doesn't get Lee/Saunders then Lara should be the backup option. If he doesn't get Lee/Saunders and then makes no effort to fight Lara, Golovkin should be criticized for it.
