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

[Lester Tutor]

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.



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.

Lol. The K2 Holy Book of Infallibility. I mean "Jesus Christ...!"

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.

Are you serious?? In my original post I said he only has himself to blame because he hasn't pursued the fight. In plain English; I'm questioning his intentions because he's talking about it but not doing it. How can you not understand that??

Seems like every week you waste 20min of my time arguing about something we AGREE on. For fk's sake brother, just take what I'm saying at face value and stop trying to assume I'm creating angles.

Jacobs won 8 rounds to 4. The fight wasn't even close. Clear robbery.

You must have missed the part where Jacob's head was getting snapped back by a thunderous jab all night!

Peace, apologies for the rant.

He can but I wouldn't want him to. I'd want him to fight Canelo in September and then finish out the year with Billy Joe Saunders to get that last belt. I'd like to see him start 2018 by fighting Jermall Charlo (assuming he beats Heiland to become GGG's mandatory). After fighting Jacobs, Canelo, Billy Joe Saunders and Charlo in consecutive fights I'd forgive him for taking an easy tuneup fight with a guy like N'Dam or whomever is his mandatory at that time. But after that it should be nothing but the best fights possible. If it means having to give up one or more of his belts then so be it. Before 2018 is over I'd want to see the Jacobs rematch, the Lara fight or for GGG to move up to challenge Ramirez or DeGeale.

The problem is that even though Jacobs earned a rematch, the fight didn't do well! Lara is a good fight, but Lara has to do something to make that a great fight. Same with Jermall Charlo. I read that Zurdo was awful this weekend too! At this point in his career, GGG needs Canelo, the WBO MW Champion, and the Jacobs rematch is just "the right thing to do." DeGale is an attractive opponent, but he did not impress with Jack! GGG is stuck in quicksand, and Canelo is holding out a tree limb. The question is the limb trying to help GGG out, or pushing his azz in deeper?

why is this guy even talking ? who the f-ck is this Lara guy ? who did he even beat ? He should stfu or make a name for him self and fight Jacobs himself!

The thing about facts is that they remain facts whether you agree with them or not.

The limb is there to keep wacking GGG over the head so he tires and suffocates quicker.

exactly. Golovkin fans think K2 can do no wrong. that's a fact. or rather, many people don't understand the nature of propaganda tactics in politics, or worse, they don't understand politics.. being gullible is rather easy with Pac and GGG boys

Lara blowing smoke again. Using GGG's name to stay relevant. Then claims Andrade is pricing himself out of a potential fight. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. Lara isn't worth GGG's time and money to fool with. The only reason Lara got a fight with Canelo is because Canelo took this fight as a stay busy fight ( a sure win), and was also avoiding a fight with GGG and other "real" top fighters. If Lara wants to earn the shot, he has to fight contenders and build up his franchise first. Who the hell does he think he is calling out big name fighters without really EARNING IT. This is Prize-Fighting Lara and when it comes to $$$$ you have no friends. Why not call out one of the Charlo brothers or other active contention ranked fighters that are available. Na this is cheap BS talk from Lara and that's all it is. Pathetic really!!!!
