Comments Thread For: Demetrius Andrade: Lara a Last Resort, I'd Fight Jack Culcay

[icha]

so much talent at 154 but the guys refuse to fight each other, what a waste...

[turnedup]

Save it.

I saw a video where Tom Loeffler himself straight up said Lara didn't make "bizness" sense.

Why are you trying to present the argument like if Lara would only send some offer, Team GGG would make the fight?

Again where is the offer? If he doesn't make business sense then up the ante..you really want to fight him then go to Haymon and ask him..better yet demand he make it happen. Lara is happy to pay a cut of his earnings to people who ain't doing shh for him. The one other profile fight he has on his resume, he had to make himself...when do you stfu and start demanding your people make the fights you want? I'm sure PBC can cough up 5 million to Golovkin to make it happen...so again where is the offer?

Lara doesn't really have to do anything like call Loeffler or HBO people. All he has to do is make use of his management team, make them work their ass off. He's paying these people to do things for him.

Reminds me again of Jim Grey's post fight interview with Leo Santa Cruz when he was fighting sparring partners. LSC calls out Rigo everytime. With a tone of exasperation in Grey's voice he asked again who he wants to fight next. Don't remember LSC's answer but sensing Grey's disappointment he's blaming someone or something... Grey ended the interview with an advise, something like, "Well, tell your management team to make the fight for you...." Something to that effect.

Jack WHO????WTF

Culcay is no bum...... Andrade would be wise to study up a bit before jumping into a fight with him sight unseen.

Let's hope so. Frankly, I dislike Andrade's defense. It's ugly. He ducks so low the opponent gets cautious in hitting the back of his head. It's also a defensive stance aiming to clinch. I don't have any problem with his offense, which he relies heavily on.

It's irrelevant because Sauerland wouldn't let Culcay fight someone with a pulse and a punch, but Culcay has fought ridiculously weak opposition, lost to an Argentine club fighter in Germany and "won" his "interim" belt by beating a guy ranked 126th by boxrec at 154 at the time. Andrade isn't great by a long stretch but he would handle Culcay pretty easily if Sauerland allowed the fight to happen.

Andrade beat Culcay in the amateurs lol, they know eachother

I think people are ignoring the fact that this does nothing for Lara right now. Andrade is dangerous and doesn't have a name yet. Lara might not be tremendously popular but I think this fight is less attractive of him than it is for Andrade.

Lara would still take the fight though. Lara is not very picky about who he fights because everybody keeps looking for ways not to fight him

[brettWall]

It always makes me chuckle when Mauro Ranallo of Showtime mentions "they're fighting in a very deep divison.."

Riight. It's deep but it takes years to see top fighters fight each other.

[Eff Pandas]

Andrade gotta be trolling or boxing scene click baiting boxing fans with the headline.
