Comments Thread For: Lara: Jacobs Beat Golovkin, I'd Give GGG Tremendous Problems!

[Redd Foxx]

Yeah a big problem. His name is Charlo. Charlo actually moved up in weight to get the big money fights. People recognize that he is serious. Lara would prefer to snipe from long range.

Which is exactly what I said about Lara but I have these guys with their faces so deep in Golovkin's lap that they can't even understand what I'm saying. They just see the words "Golovkin" and "Lara" in the same post and make ignorant assumptions that I'm defending Lara. I was criticizing him.

Regarding Charlo. THAT'S how you get shyt done in this world. Those brothers are lions.

Calm the fk down. I'm talking about Lara's statements, not a contract.

Lara said about 5 million times that he wanted to fight Golovkin (read the thread title if you don't believe me). GG's team expressed no interest in Lara.

Do you have some kind of problem with those basic facts???

The rollout of excuses by Lara's manager was prompted by K2 contacting Haymon about Lara so it's not correct to say that they have shown no interest

[Derranged]

You won't even fight Andrade, Lara. Nobody wants to see you running around in circles while Golovkin chases you around like a ******ed gorilla for 12 rounds.

You think K2 pursued a Lara fight for Golovkin???

That's true. Lara's manager himself admitted to Loeffler contacting Haymon about Lara. Then Decubas started enumerating a laundry list of demands, which included hinting at asking for $4-5 mil comparable to Hearn's offer to Eubanks at that time.

Irrelevant to the conversation. Most who know realize when a guy is running and hugging. Has nothing to do with ring size genius.

Still mad Pac lost to Floyd? How many alts uve got?

If you're defending the Brook fight, I can only say

There is a big difference between defending the Brook fight and explaining why it happened. I thought the Brook fight was a waste but I understand why it happened.

You have to keep in mind that between the failed negotiations with Canelo, Chris Eubanks Jr and the drawn out negotiations with Daniel Jacobs GGG's team had 3 instances of dragged out negotiations that needlessly delayed fights in one year. Kell Brook/Chris Eubanks Jr's own promoter came to the table with a big name ready and willing to immediately sign on the dotted line. Who could blame GGG's team for taking it? If the option was Brook or inactivity what sane person would prefer inactivity. It is what it is. The Brook fight was the best option of bad options.

Regarding Ward, Golovkin brought him up first. When Ward was free of contract disputes, his team sent an offer. Team GG made NO attempt to negotiate. Everyone knows this. Everyone. The only guys who can't grasp that reality are the most hardcore of GG fans. I like Golovkin but all the big talk (esp from Sanchez) was really embarrassing, and it's just pathetic when people try to pretend that everything he's done has always been brilliant.

That's a load of crap. Ward didn't sign with Jay Z's company until 2015. He was talking ***** about GGG before then. Everyone knows that. I've seen a video uploaded to youtube in January 2014 where GGG's team responds to Andre Ward.He also sent that "concrete offer" after GGG signed the contract to fight David Lemieux. Everyone knows that as well.

I do agree with you on Abel Sanchez. That man talks way too much for my liking. He's not as abrasive as Angel Garcia but he does talk too much crap for my liking. I guess he feels that someone needs to go on the verbal offensive from GGG's side since GGG is neither a trash talker nor a strong english speaker. I wish he would let GGG's fists do the talking.

The problems I have is that those "basic facts" are fake news, pay attention to what really happened before you talk.

Which part of what I SAID was fake? Don't defer to someone else's post. The only way it's fake is if you think they honestly intended to fight Lara. And, you if you think that, I've got nothing but lols for you.

So you would never admit the truth. You will take "Lara wants to fight Golovkin at 160" as the truth, and the rest doesn't matter. Doesn't matter if his own manager admitted K2 contacted him about the fight, and if he says the fight is difficult to make. Deep inside, you know GGG doesn't want that fight, and Lara does. Because you are special.

Facts doesn't matter to you when it's about GGG. Nothing new to me.
