    So is all about GGG camp, Lara camp wants it, now is GGG who need to take the first step, but it looks like they they want no part.
    Real talk right there.

      The GGG defense force are terrified of Lara. Well not just him. Anyone who may pose a slight bit of risk. Shameful bunch.

          I see where it fits your agenda, but telling Loeffler that the fight would be difficult to make because of g strings exclusive HBO contract does not = "coming up with a list of reasons why the fight can't happen".


          Again, my hats off to you. Defending g strings pathetic resume is a hard job and you're up to the task.

            g string is liked well enough, it's just that real boxing fans (this leaves you out) want to see him test himself vs a quality opponent for once.

              Why won't Lara fight GGG as he promised and starts making excuses?

              Why did Lara never try to really make the fight, why did they never contact Loeffler?

              Why is Lara's manager suddenly talking about fighting GGG on Showtime and that Lara commands alot of money and the fight will be hard to make?

              After bull****ting on Twitter for 2 years and not ONCE contacting K2/Loeffler, claiming Lara wants to fight the best for his legacy... bla bla.. then Loeffler actually had to make the first move and contacted Haymon to see if Lara is for real and now that is how Lara's manager replied:

              New York - In a stacked 154 pound division, Erislandy Lara (23-2-2, 14 KO's) has been reduced to fighting Delvin Rodriguez, Jan Zaveck, and a rematch with Vanes Martirosyan. Lara was victorious in all three bouts, but one must wonder when his next fight will be on the horizon. According to his manger Luis DeCubas, Jr., the plan is to return in the fall. One possibility is the winner of Saturday's fight between Sergey Rabchenko and Tony Harrison.



              Question: So how much would a possible Golovkin-Lara fight cost and would it be in the budget of HBO?

              "Showtime definitely has the budget but can Golovkin fight on Showtime? I'm not sure what the budget is on HBO." (WTF?)

              "Lara commands a lot of money so I cant say the fight will be simple to make." (WTF?)

              "We got to make more money than what he's made in the past for Golovkin." (WTF?)


              What does that even mean? Sounds like excuses! Sounds like ducking! Sounds like Jacobs and Saunders!

                If you follow the young mans (GGG) career you'd know that Lara has no belt at middleweight. He is not a mandatory defense of any of GGG's belts, he also has very little drawing power.
                The Brook bout is because another middleweight belt holder decided against facing GGG, don't you pay attention to this crap?

                  Wow. You mean as soon as Loeffler started contacting Haymon, Decubas is suddenly asking whether GGG can fight on Showtime? Is he not the same guy who said Lara can fight everywhere, and can even fight in Kazakhstan?

                    And: "It would be a difficult fight to make, Lara commands a lot of money" (700k for his last fight)

                    And: "He doesn't want to fight at 160 just yet. He wants to break the record for title defences at 154 first"

                    Time to let it go mate. They obviously don't want the fight and they never did.
