IT'S OFFICIAL: Golovkin vs Tureano Johnson

[Jsmooth9876]

only guy willing to fight him??? Ward,lara,andrade degale all called him out

Ward: late 2016 50-50

Lara: no fights at 160, fighting bums on Tuesday nights, making 1 million to do so. What's his asking price and what did the contract he sent over offer to GGG? He's got JRock,the Charlos,Andrade and so many others at 154 and with Haymon yet he's fighting stiffs lol.

Andrade: basically he's a nobody. Good fighter but a nobody

Degale: I'd love that fight but is he serious?

You can talk on Twitter all day about wanting to fight someone but business is done between promoters and managers.

This should be an easy win for GGG. Johnson will come straight at him and I like to watch the guy fight. He really gives everything. However, I don't see this being competitive.

Im sure HBO will be relieved to know they can proceed........

Yeah I agree.

So they attempted it?

And now Andrade has to be as popular as Johnson to get a fight just like Lara had to be as popular as Monroe?

Did any of them send in a contract? Ward is done with, gone, Lara has no interest in fighting him. Did you not see the interview with his manager where they asked him if they sent in an offer? He said no and then started studdering. This is the same recycled stuff we hear over and over again. Let's talk about makeable fights.

Dudes talking about fighting on twitter is not making an effort to fight. If Lara was serious, he would have said so himself. It is funny when someone asks Lara himself what he wants to do, he says he is happy where he is at. When his manager talks about fighting GGG on twitter, he makes Lara sound game, but he himself got choked up when DONTAE interviewed him.

Johnson is his mandatory, he tried to unify with saunders and wants Canelo.

Guess what, Lara wants to fight a middleweight he's got Jacobs right there in his Haymon family. Why not go up and take his title then call out GGG and offer him a fight?

Even if the Ward fight was happening it would still be 8-9 months away and you same guys would be crying about Johnson so what's the point really.

then i guess there isnt a point to call him out cause it wont matter.

Everyone here would love to have Golovkin fight 3-4 times a year. Everyone. We all want that. I think it's clear they are banking on the Canelo fight later this year and apparently, they are fine with that. What they wanted was Andy Lee and Canelo. That was what they were hoping for. It didn't pan out that way unfortunately. I'm not sure if there is more to the fighting twice this year or not. I swore I read the reasoning behind it before but I'm drawing a blank.

the deal with Golden Boy called for GGG and Canelo each to take 1 fight and then meet in Sept. If that happens, I still wouldnt rule out GGG fighting again in December, if HBO has an open date

The other possibility is if the Canelo deal blows up and Canelo vacates in May. Then I could see GGG doing the April fight, then fighting again in August and Nov/Dec
