Comments Thread For: Lara on Canelo-Golovkin Beef: Canelo Should Vacate, I'll Fight Both!

How you show interest can make a difference if your promoter doesn't work with the network, or you're on anti Gatti list, or you want 5x what you bring.

Are you seriously going to bring up the Anti Gatti list?

That's just a thinly veiled attempt by Lampley/HBO to crap on fighters from rival networks.

Just like The Fight Game P4P list is a thinly veiled attempt to glorify HBO fighters.

Neither list has much credibility among serious boxing fans.

Lampley is a company man and clearly Lara is not favored by Hbo for his style and crowd appeal. Hell after his one exciting fight vs a shot Angulo even his promoter Schaefer was ****ting on him right here for being a boring fighter!

"I'm not focused on him"

That should automatically remove Lara from being a leverage piece in arguments. As I said calling someone out but not having your people reach out to make a fight is something any of us here can do as well. Hope he gets both fights but he seems more fixated on staying at 154 which is fine as well.

All fighters say that when they have a fight signed.

If Lara wants that fight he needs to fight at MW, defeat a legit MW first.

I wonder why he keeps hiding at 154.

Also in this interview he said he wants Canelo and said the winner would have to fight GGG.

Funny how Spence calls out Thurman who.has a fight scheduled and Thurman is called a.duck but Lara's been calling out GGG but its called a bluff.

Nice... Intentionally misrepresenting what he said. Why not post the whole thing? The length you guys go to stick up for these guys smh...

"I've already made it public that I would fight [Golovkin], but I'm not focused on him. I have a tough fight with Vanes coming up so I'll stay focused on him, but my record speaks for itself."

"I'm not focused on him"

vs

"I'm not focused on him because I have a fight coming up"

Is a pretty big difference.

You want to present the whole story? How about Lara always mentioning Golovkin only when he has a fight signed or is about to publicly announce the fight he's signed?

[turnedup]

oh give me a break that fight would be up to ggg and ggg alone dont worry tho well see ggg fight more overmatched foes on hbo instead of fighting lara which would make 25 million times more sense

Considering Lara is with PBC that fight would be up to Haymon to make if he sees it as a good fit.

[turnedup]

Wow you are one of the worst cases of selective reading I ever heard of.

The guy just blatantly stated that he would sign a contract that obligates him to fight GGG after Canelo but you only saw that tiny little piece and took that out of everything that was said.

Wow, unbelievable, smh!

Or i've been watching this soap opera long enough to know Lara garners discussion by mentioning Golovkin when he has a fight nobody is actually talking about...tale of the tape? google his golovkin mentions, their dates, and then look up the announcement of his next fight.

[turnedup]

So you just gonna leave out the part where he says he has a fight with Vanes coming up?

Or i've watched this song and dance since 2015? "No buzz for my fight" lets mention someones name that everyone wants to actually hear...

[turnedup]

But the world and K2 knew Lara wanted GGG, before Lara signed on to fight Vanes. Why'd you leave that out?

Because he's wanted Golovkin days before he's announced his last 3 fights...after some point you should be able to connect the dots yourself.
