Yea, the lack of information is astounding in the sport of boxing. Then again, every promoter & his team are trying to play the "he said-she said" game in order to hype/acquire bouts. That's what happens sometimes. I prefer the hard info...I'll even take straight documents or contract drafts.Comment

The Munroe fight happened because there weren't any other good options at the time for GGG...& he had to fight Wade in order to retain his IBF belt. So what are you saying?...that GGG should have taken the Lara fight & get stripped of his belt? That's ****** logic.Comment

Anybody who says Monroe is equal to Lara is delusional. But aside from that, Lara hasn't done anything to ensure he would get the fight with GGG. He didn't move up to 160 like he said he would. And 3 fights against 3 journeymen north of 35-years-old & a rematch that was 5 years too late is not going to help Lara's case in the matter. And you might want to call him the best 154 fighter...but, we don't know because there are 3 other champions he hasn't tried to reach out for a fight (plus Andrade, who was available before he chose Matirosyan). It's obvious Lara is running his mouth to get the biggest payday he can. But from a boxing perspective, he hasn't done anything to to improve his chance of getting the GGG fight. Agree?Comment

Yes, and no. A duck is when a fighter from your division does not fight you. When a fighter from another division does not fight you, that's a potential bout that wasn't made. Duck is not an official boxing term, but known & used more by the boxing fans & experts. Hope that clears it up for you.Comment

Haymon is definitely no excuse. Khan, as I mentioned, is Haymon fighter as well. So why is Lara not talking to Haymon and tell him to make the fight for him? Why is this Lara guy not doing anything other than talk? Anyone can talk. Big effing deal.
Miguel Vasquez: "I'll ask Haymon to get me Adrien Broner"
Lara: "Talk talk talk bok bok bok bok bok... (chicken sound) I'm so entertaining everyone should be contacting me."Comment

Tell me, where were all these top boxers when GGG was still an unknown paper champion? And what does it matter now that GGG has fighters lining up to take him on? Hopkins' career didn't take off til late in his sunset years. That's a parallel to GGG. Criticize all you want. In due time, you might become a believer too.Comment
