    So it's okay for Floyd to cherry pick at will just because apparently he has reached a certain point of his career?

    A better question is why hasn't Lara competed once at 160 If he is so serious about wanting GGG, K2 and Loeffer won't turn it down the fact that Lara remains at 154lbs kind of supports the idea of him and his team being all talk.

        The reason I slam Lara is because he's the most overrated fighter I've ever seen. You'd think the way people speak of him that he's this undefeated champion that can't be beaten. The problem is he can be beaten, as he's been beaten twice. He also holds a rather embarrassing draw to someone like Carlos Molina.

        If you look at his resume, the only top fighter he's legitimately beaten is Austin Trout. Is Austin Trout really that good?

        People will say he got robbed against Paul Williams. Ok, but keep in mind that fight went to a decision. Paul Williams was coming off a devastating one punch KO to Sergio Martinez like 8 months back. He was essentially fighting the corpse of Paul Williams and still managed to keep the fight close enough to leave doubt in the judges minds.

        Then he's had a rather uneventful fight with a fighter like Freddy Hernandez, who Berto KOed in 1 round.

        So I add all this up and I'm left wondering what is it that people see in this guy? He's a good fighter, but he's not great and he's certainly not elite.

              Nobody really cares or talks about him until Ggg hate trolls brings up his phony call outs. That'll get a reaction. Personally I like the guy and I won't switch channels when he's on, but I'd think twice about paying to see him on ppv after that Canelo choke job

                Yes and If GGG was ducking him why hasn't Lara pressed the issue with getting himself higher in the rankings to force the fight with Golovkin hmmm?

                  Why do you keep pushing that lame talking point? Those 2 guys took like 15% or less than Lara would want, combined

                    Because Lara keeps talking **** when GGG announces a fight and when GGG looks for an opponent, Lara goes hiding and fights Jan Zavecks and other nohopers, ducking all the champs in his own divsion.

                    Lara got paid $1 Million and says he doesnt want to face GGG for the same money which is ridiculous. Lara is a coward and a liar.
