Monroe = $100k
Wade = $500k
Lara = $1.5 million or more
and all 3 sell about the same number of tickets..... basically zero
but hey, if they can find the money, then fine. I'd love to see Lara get knocked into the 3rd row.....Comment

Well yeah Lara will have to be Paid, not sure how K2 or HBO Expect GGG to become a Star if they can't put up the money to get QUALITY OPPONENTS to come fight himComment

I agree with you in theory, but not as it pertains to Lara.
Sure, a Lara fight might shut up some of the yapping NSB posters (who will immediately find something else to yap about), but it does absolutely nothing to further the "star" making process, because 99.9% of casuals couldnt pick Lara out of a lineup. To the casuals, beating Lara is no different than beating Wade, Monroe, or Rosado......Comment

I don't know about that, destroying the guy who many think Canelo lost to you make a HUGE STATEMENT!I agree with you in theory, but not as it pertains to Lara.

I don't think people will make a big deal about Lara coming from Light Middleweight that is only 1 weight class down and not 2 vs a a guy with a a **** chin and no PowerLast edited by sicko; 05-20-2016, 11:58 AM.Comment

The boxing world is ridiculous sometimes. Why the bloody hell should Golovkin go look for Lara?
If Lara wants the fight it's real easy to accomplish. Move up to MW and beat a few guys. That's how Golovkin got mandatory status vs. Canelo. He worked for it. He escaped his Universum contract, moved to another country for the 3rd time and beat people in order to advance his career. Lara hasn't done ****. He's rematching a SWW.
All Lara has done (or as most people believe, it's his manager and not him), is throw insults on social media while telling Golovkin's manager to call him. That's not how the world works. The challenger goes looking for the champion, not the other way around.
If Lara wants Golovkin then do something about it instead of running his mouth like a little b1tch. End of damn story.Comment
