Comments Thread For: Golovkin: I'd Rather Get Saunders Next, Means More Than Canelo!

GGG looks like the dummy from the thriller Dead Silence

Well Canelo is taking Saunders out in December so you may as well fight Lara in the meantime.

When your goal is to unify and dominate middleweight then beating a middleweight champ means more than beating a soon to be Jr. Middleweight champ. If Canelo were to take Saunders's middleweight title then GGG would chase a fight with him again. Right now Jacobs and Saunders are the fights GGG wants the most if he defeats Brook.

What exactly does Lara bring to the table that would make GGG want to fight him? Does Lara bring GGG a large purse? NO. Does Lara bring action and excitement to the fight? No. Lara is one of the worst runners around. Does Lara help GGG in his quest to unify the middleweights? No. Lara never beat a middleweight. Lara could try to take Jacobs's middleweight title. If he could do that then a fight with GGG would be his for sure.

Lol, BJS just said he'd rather fight Golovkin/Brook winner ahead of Alvarez. But then again, Frank & Bill will setup a bidding war between Golovkin & Canelo.


K2 need to go all out and let Bill take the whole UK revenue. Once Golovkin holds all four belts, Canelo will have to knock on his door.

It'd be interesting if the tables turned and it was Canelo looking for live opponents and a shot at Golovkin. That's what pisses me off the most really. Canelo has a shining opportunity to fight Golovkin and be great. Instead he's acting like he's an ATG and doesn't need Golovkin

Contrast of styles, that's what I wanna see. Of GGG has power so anyone that can't move will probably lose to him. I wanna see him against someone that's elusive and a good boxer.

This is a good reason for a fan to want to see a fight, and I'd like to see it myself for the same reason, but it's not a good reason for a promoter to want to make a fight unfortunately.

Golovkin - Lara will probably only happen if Lara brings something to the table other than the expectation of a high payday. Sucks but that's just the way it is.

For you special people: what fighting Lara is about is more than just the purse. Lara would be a common opponent. One that Canelo struggled with, so if GayLoveKin were to beat him easily, that would draw more interest in the guy who's a@@ he lacks behind closed doors. I swear fans of his are a f'n joke. B1tch about not finding anyone to fight, well there you have someone to fight. To my knowledge, canelo never beat a middleweight either, unless you actually count Cotto, so wtf is your point?

He doesn't. If he were to fight and beat Andrade, Charlo Bros, and the rest of the top 154 lb guys, he'd be much higher than GayLoveKin, although his resume is already much better anyway.
