IBF gives Golovkin a mandatory and now Lara speaks!

[RetroSpeed05]

Some fans really think GGG gonna let the ibf strip him and give up his title so a few BS posters could see him fight Lara smh. Lara really wanted it fight at 160 why waste time fighting bums at 154? At this point GGG getting titles is the only bargaining chip he has to try to get the other 160lbers to fight him.

GGG has all these guys shook. The hatred is so strong in these people they just turn into total senseless ******s.

Giving up the IBF belt to fight Lara. Yeah sounds like an awesome idea.

Lara has had three title defenses since losing to Canelo. All three of his challengers were unranked garbage. Lara continues to be a cherry picking champion while calling out the best middleweight in the world. Jacobs has the same manager as Lara so why doesn't he call Jacobs out?????? If Lara beat Jacobs he would have a middleweight belt and GGG would have a logical reason to fight Lara. As of now GGG has no reason to waste his time knocking out Lara. GGG haters would just say he was picking on a smaller man. GGG is trying to fight Wade now. Wade is his top rated mandatory challenger. Wade is a 25 year old undefeated boxer with a 75% KO ratio. He is rated 10th in the world or much higher by everybody. He is a worthy challenger and it's a good fight for GGG. To say otherwise is just hateful nonsense.

Luis de Cubas jr is not Jacobs' manager... I think al Harmon is.
Lara is managed by Luis de Cubas jr, who is 99% likely to be the person running the Twitter. Al Harmon is his advisor.
Therefore they DO NOT have the same manager.

Triple tune up fans talk about deflection Lara has been calling him out for months all of a sudden ..Pathetic

Why would I hope that when Black fighters are some of my favorite?

Yeah, right. That's why you've trashed them for years on this site.

What a ****ing joke. IBF just announced Golovkin has to fight Wade and suddenly Lara calls him out!

@GGGBoxing I'm ready willing and able to fight! Your Team knows who to call ��☝️��

Haha, yup exactly what I and others predicted. Can people see through this clown yet? He had weeks to speak up but only does so now lol. No doubt he'll be calling GGG out for the next few months now.

It's called name dropping, people. Anyway lets hope wade gets a panic attack and pulls out so GGG can call Lara on this

Actually I trashed Floyd and Broner. After the Super Six, I had Ward as the pound for pound number 1 fighter in the world. I'm a part of the Bad Chad Dawson social group.

It just bothers you that I see past yours and others bs and call it like it is.

[Kagami Taiga]

Why do you guys get so caught up on this call out ****? It literally means nothing. Lara has been calling out Golovin for years and now he doesn't call him out on some timetable and it means something? Loffler has admitted to not wanting to make a Lara fight but now it means something? Stop it. No matter when Lara called out Golovkin, that fight wasn't gonna happen. Golovkin is gonna fight Wade, and be content with hoping for a Canelo fight. I personally don't like Lara too much but acting like he wouldn't fight Golovkin is pure ******ity. I have no doubt if given the chance he'd fight him.

Wade lol one of the worst decisions I have seen was this guy over Sam Soliman.

Golovkin gets the IBF mandatory defense out of the way, and he's going to be looking for his next opponent.

The Canelo fight is unlikely to happen (especially if Golovkin continues to refuse the fight at 155; he's already use to being handed belts, so he'll be fine with being handed the WBC belt as well), the WBA has yet to mandate Golovkin-Jacobs, and the Saunders fight is unlikely to happen.

With K2 now acknowledging that they can comfortably negotiate a fight with Al Haymon, Lara is simply making sure that they remember that he still exists too. The next time Golovkin is looking for a fight, there's now no reason for Team Golovkin to ignore him.
