Comments Thread For: Erislandy Lara Keeps Winning, Keeps Calling For Canelo, Golovkin

Lara should go after Heiland for the WBC #1 spot or N'Dam for the WBA interim belt. Too bad the PBC hedge fund is drying up, he could've convinced uncle Al to buy him a shot vs BJS.

N'dam could very well beat Lara with his speed. He's a dangerous fight. He should fight someone easier, like Rubio.

Yeah I'd favor N'Dam too, it's just an easy fight to make being they're both WBA title holders.

Heiland would be an easy fight for Lara, so would Tureano Johnson. Rubio retired, so I guess yeah, he's a logical choice for Lara...

Lara is exactly one year younger than Golovkin. Golovkin turns 35 in April. Lara turns 34.

Yea but his balls dropped a long time ago, Golovtits is terrified of him and of moving up in weight

I think Lara would box the ears off N'Dam myself.

In theory Canelo should give Lara a rematch. It was a close fight. But the boxing public, hardcore fans included, were disgusted by his performance and he essentially disqualified himself from another shot.

As for Golovkin, I don't get why he never hear about any communication between the two sides. Do the powers that be not want it? We never hear either side say that they sent an email or made an offer and they heard nothing back. It seems like Lara just talks about it to the media but there is no effort made by anyone else. It's just put out there as hot air.

I'd like to see the fight. I think Golovkin's team should look for it if the alternative is a 5 to 15 ranked middleweight. But I think Lara's team should actually make an offer if they really want the fight, rather than be satisfied with appearing to want the fight.

Here's a question the writer should have asked Lara," Do you get that a KO over a faded, gimpy legged ex-champ does nothing for your rep and makes you look like a poser?"

That's like saying, I keep asking for a raise! Of course he wants ggg or Canelo, career pay days for him. He wants the pay day but he don't want to fight, canelos fight is evidence of that

[Mr_Forte]

I know it's fashionable to crap on Golovkin at the moment but the good thing about someone unifying the division is that he has to fight mandatories to stay unified.

If Lara (or anyone) wants to fight GGG all they have to do is get ranked #1 in any of 3 sanctioning bodies at MW. That should not be that hard to do.

Make Lara vs N'Dam for the interim belt, grab it and lobby for a mando to be ordered. Then he would get his shot.

Yeah, yeah I know Brook didn't but if Lara really wants the fight he's got to go after it.

GGG scared of Cuban marathon runner? Lol! Keep fighting on the 2ND CIRCUIT on makeshift stages in dogtrack parking lots. Ur style sux and makes for boring fights against top fighters who can punch. U stood ur ground against Foreman, who hasn't? The guy can't break an egg!!

I want his manager to come out on social media and state for the record they are willing to fight GGG on HBO, and that they won't ask for more than Lemieux got to fight GGG unless Lara shows he can draw more fans. Until then I don't take the callouts serious.

Lara is the typical social media warrior of today. His manager, Luis DeCubas, admitted on YouTube that he never sent a formal proposal to K2 at any time. The lies are hilarious from Lara.
