Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Promoter on Saunders Fallout, Canelo is Top Fall Target

Al Haymon has turned this sport into the biggest joke it has ever been.

No one wants to fight the best anymore.

When you ask them to, they point to haymons guys and say if they don't have to, I don't have to.

I cant be the only hardcore fan who is barely holding on to care about this sport anymore.

I consider Daniel Geale a better win.

Even though Geale was one fight removed from a close loss against Barker, I can see the argument. Also Geale defended his belt at 160 roughly 5 times before losing it to Barker. But I can also see the counter argument of Lemiuex had the better chance of winning due to his power.

So he's gonna' prove his ATGness with a KO of Lemieux?

I don't think it's gonna' be enough.

Nope, don't forget about Taureno Johnson in a few months and someone like Omar Chavez to close out the year.

Pristine.

As a fan, it's very frustrating at this point.

The only thing we can do as fans is pressure the promoters, managers and sanctioning org's to make the fights we want.

It's ok Tom..... Erislandy Lara has just moved to 160, and he will be more than happy to " fill in " for Canelo and Saunders, while you wait.

What was that Tom?..... oh, there is no money whatsoever for that fight?

But what happened to the 3mil that you were willing to pay the relatively unknown Brit, BJ Saunders?..... because Lara will fight Golovkin for a fraction of that?

What was that Tom, I should go " what " myself?

Why are you blathering on about Lara?

You know if Golovkin can't get BJS it has to be Johnson next, otherwise he will lose his IBF belt.

It won't matter, we have been saying that forever.

Only thing we can do is stop watching. I cut off my Showtime account and basically only watch HBO boxing now, because at least they try to make the fights we want even if it means some bad fights in between.

PBC might be on its death bed though (ratings are in the gutter, fighter pay is completely impossible to maintain, and fans have tuned it out for the most part.) so maybe things will change soon.

GGG commercial

He has no fcking appeal at all

In ANY fckin language lol

Conor is getting ALL the endorsements when it comes to fighters

[Crazylegs77]

Lara would be a bigger win for GGG than BJS. Hell, Lara would arguably be a bigger for dor Gennady than Canelo. A lotta people felt Lara beat Canelo. Personally, I thought he beat him pretty convincingly.

Agree with you there, it would be a better win. Also I felt Lara beat Canelo.

Lol you beat me to it. I was gonna say Lara for damn sure fight him for less than 3 mil! And Lara's Manager already cleared the air there would be no network trouble, Haymon, trouble etc... Last time I checked Lara has a much bigger name than Saunders. But we know what time it is
