    Some of the no-hopers only became no-hopers after GGG destroyed them.

    No doubt GGG should move up soon...but can't fault a prize-fighter for wanting to clean out divisions and get paid before doing so. I'm looking forward to seeing him at 168, but I can understand why he hasn't gone there yet.

      yeah, wasnt anyone in the boxing world calling for a lara fight, then as soon as he says hes fighting brook they all start saying he should have fought lara lol

        A Lara fight does more for GGG than Brook, or any of the other cans Gennady has been fighting. And depending on how you saw Canelo-Lara, beating Lara does just as much or more for GGG as beating Canelo would. Won't donas much for his bank account. But legacy wise, Lara and Canelonare pretty close to equals.

            Everybody is ducking Ggg except Ward.. You don't avoid a mule to confront a bull. I think it was Ggg who didnt want that. And no need as long as he doesn't go undisputed

              Agree that Lara is better than Brook for GGG's legacy...but not enough to offset the financial advantage of fighting Brook. I doubt there is a prizefighter who would disagree with that.

                @ thinking brook brings any kind of money to the table. When did brook turn into a cash cow?

                    Brook brings UK ppv money, and boxing is huge in the UK right now.

                      Video post earlier confirms that Lara's managers never even made a phone call to GGG to try and make the fight, it's complete bs.
