    We have the Olympics this year where you can see alot of cuban runners though!
    According to Sanchez.

    He admitted that he turned the fight down. Fact.

      Do you realize that Lara never opens his mouth when GGG is looking for an opponent, he only talks when either he or GGG has another fight lined up.

      Exactly as now, when he is about to rematch Martirosyan which was one of the worst fights in boxing, ever.

      As soon GGG is available he disappears.

        Boxing is full of pretenders with fake balls. They even duck the fights they claim they want. In this case, Hearn actually reached out to the Spence camp. Nothing still happened.

          There was no fight or contract on the table lol.

          Sanchez and HBO were scouting and checking out if Lara can make a statement and knock out the guy who Cotto destroyed in 3 rounds.

          But what did Lara do? Stink out the show, carried that dude for 12, couldnt put him away. Who wants to see that?

          Ah yeah some of the pathetic GGG haters. Funny guys these haters.

            Because he wants to fight the top dog at 160. That's like saying before the Floyd fight "I don't see why Pacquiao isn't chasing Bradley. Both are with Top Rank". Only GGG fans pawn other boxers off on other boxers. They did the same thing with Ward. "Why doesn't Ward fight Kovalev"

            What I got out of Lara's statement is that he's more concerned with Canelo than GGG. GGG is the "TOP DOG" @ 160. Why fight Canelo first? If Lara was to beat Jacobs @ 160, he would eventually be GGG's mandatory. Canelo is not giving Lara a rematch unless he does something to "make it happen!" I say go after Jacobs, then GGG, then go for the rematch!

              Loeffler approached Sanchez about setting up a fight with Lara and Sanchez said no.

              You can spin that how you like, but it is what it is.

                What I got out of hi statement is exactly what he said. He wants Canelo again and GGG. Funny how everybody will admit the Lara-Canelo fight was close and Lara has been asking for a rematch since but nobody is pushing for that fight again. And like Lara says. He's already proven he'll fight anybody anywhere.

                  This is a silly comment. I happen to think Lara would be out of his league, but if he wants the fight, great. Contact Golovkin's promoter and offer a fight. How difficult is that? Fights don't get made when someone makes a comment on twitter. It is convenient to post on twitter and then claim you are being ducked, when in reality you have never once actually attempted to make the fight. It's not exactly rocket science.
                  This statement is true, although the word "offer" gets misinterpreted by alot of people here. Its more about personally expressing a genuine interest, as opposed to making an actual monetary "offer".

                  For example, when I wanted to get Nate Campbell in with Tim Bradley, I didnt send tweets. I called Gary Shaw, and asked if he had any interest in doing Bradley-Campbell. He said he had to check with Showtime and get back to me. He did, and as the A-side he made the initial "offer", and we worked it out from there.

                  Its not that difficult........

                    If it's okay for little G, as Ward called him, to want Ward to fight him at 164, then Canelo has the right to demand that they fight at 155. Heck!!! GGG said that he would fight Mayweather at 154, then why not Canelo at 155?
                    Does being in the same weight class ring a bell !? Frankly, I'd like to see GGG vs Ward in 2016/2017..2020 or until either one of them retires.. But the catchweight bs within the same division is a load of nuts..
                    Imagine if Klitschko had asked Fury to come to 235lbs or else no fight even though he was his mandatory, I know it sounds deluded.. lol

                      Personally, I'm dying to see this fight get made. If Lara can't even consult with his own adviser, Haymon, about making this fight, then posters who have access to Loeffler need to talk to him and tell him that he needs to take this fight seriously. About time calling this guy's bluff. You guys should be getting sick of these pretenders.

                      This fight needs to happen before the year ends.

                      Lara vs Golovkin in November. Let's start promoting it.
