Regarding Lara, I don’t respect that he keeps calling out GGG. When he instructs his manager, Luis DeCubas Jr., or advisor, Al Haymon, to contact K2’s Tom Loeffler and make a serious offer, or at least try to start up real negotiations, THEN I will give him respect for calling out “the man” of the 160-pound division.
I’m not into it. I don’t see how he would be competitive and I don’t think he’s earned the right to challenge a unified middleweight titleholder. The guy lost four or five LEGIT rounds to Vanes Martirosyan. Nothing against the perennial 154-pound contender, but if you can’t hurt Martirosyan, how the f__k you gonna hold off GGG?

With Canelo & Jacobs not available, it's down to Saunders. If BJS says no thanks (he's been out of the ring for the same amount of time as Danny Jacobs), then it comes down between Lara & Eubank. I would love for Lara/Golovkin to happen at the Alamo Dome, where fans who rooted against Lara in his fights vs Alvarez & Angulo could come out and cheer his beheading.
I see another Geale/Monroe/Rubio/Wade-like result. There's plenty of haters who would have eat crow with Golovkin leaving Lara crumpled in the ring, and Alvarez would have to accept Golovkin made easy work with a guy he clearly had problems with.
Any question asked to the Lara camp whether they have consulted with Haymon, so he can talk to Loeffler? The same way Khan managed to land a fight with a GBP/HBO fighter? Why can't these questions be asked?

Ouma lost to Vanes at 154. Had a random fight at 160 and 1 fight later got Golovkin. Fischer just scared.

Wade was Haymon too. Even though it was a mandatory they negotiated instead of a purse bid. Haymon is no excuse.
more like a thread full of GGG haters who want to call him a duck over a fight that HBO probably wouldnt even buy in the first place.
most knowledgable fans are fine with a Lara fight, as long as negotiations with Saunders and Jacobs have been attempted first. Nobody is afraid of Lara. He just isnt anyones first choice (and rightfully so)
So Wade and Monroe were better fights?
Aren't you that loser who used to love Manny? Manny took risks. Why won't this coward?

It's ****ing nonsense...He wasn't out there saying Ward doesn't deserve Kovalev. He's not protesting Frampton getting his shot at LSC. Doogie is a ****ing loser.
