Comments Thread For: Erislandy Lara Says Demetrius Andrade Priced Himself Out

Isn't this why purse bids exist? these guys are scrubs and have no fans so no one would defend their unrealistic expectations... whatever happened to the WBA having one belt doe......boxing is a joke

We all know Lara is the one ducking cause he's the one with the history of pricing himself out and not Andrade.

usual suspect telling a "champ" that he's pricing himself out vs an inactive fighter lol

if andrade is not willing to take 30% he's not willing to be a champ..he's entitled to 25% ofa p urse bid..lara can alwasy wait him out...if andrade ducks a purse bid he's fruad..and the sad part is andrade has been one of my fave fighters to watch for a while now..i wanted him to dominate lara...but if lara's words are true..andrade is full of it

Yea, he sure did. Gave away those rounds by running. I rooted for him in that fight but actually came out of that fight with a new respect for Canelo.

I was never really a fan of Lara's but I was willing to stand-up for the guy when he said he wanted to fight Golovkin while everyone at 160 was ducking. I said from the beginning he was going to have to go up in weight and earn the shot because Golovkin was certainly not going to give it to him. But, Lara just kept yapping and not actually going after it.

At this point, I don't have any reason to support him for pursuing the fight because he's not actually pursuing it. He's doing what Golovkin did to Ward and just acting brave.

Yeah he did give a lot of rounds up for his punch and RUN. Just look at their punches landed % and punches thrown you'll see the difference from "stick and move" vs. "stick and RUN!"

I mean a SLOW PLODDER landed almost the same and BETTER % then a CUBAN TECHNICIAN???

I always knew GGG was either going to get the $$$$ or the weight but NEVER both.

No reason for boo boo bear to take the fight now , wait for Lara to get another belt then let the WBA order the fight you get better money and a shot to end up with more belts.

What a joke

Andrade has been trying to fight you for years!! He traveled all the way to Germany to fight for only $75K against a hometown guy because YOU refused to accept the Showtime offer to fight Andrade and YOU KNOW IT!!! YOU told Showtime that you wanted another "tune-up" fight first! and you took Yuri Forman instead and now YOU just told them once again you wanted another fight first!!! Always an excuse. The fact is your AFRAID of Andrade period!! Andrade has NEVER EVER received an offer to fight you at any amount. PROVE IT!! Where is the offer??? If you had any B*lls you would tell the truth... You want to fight Andrade??? make any decent offer in writing and you can have the fight and stop lying!!!!

[Shadoww702]

Wtf are you even on about, dude?

Are you drunk?? You said calling ppl out are NOT in Lara's NATURE??? Yet that's ALL he DOES!!!

"If Canelo wins, I'll make him quit and if Angulo wins I'll make him quit again. The American Dream will be the Mexican nightmare.""

“Actions speak louder than words. Triple G will fight a 147-pound guy, but wouldn’t fight me, whose six pounds away,” said Lara to Fighthype.com about Golovkin choosing to fight welterweight Kell Brook rather than him. “As far as I’m concerned, Canelo and Triple G are twin brothers; typical business first and not old school throwback fighters.”

Now EINSTEIN read the TITLE of this ARTICLE????

Wonder what the money details are that are "too much". Lara seems to be getting $1M-$1.5M for his fights. How much could Andrade be asking for that's "too much". Or is Lara expecting a bump up to so Andrade asking for more don't really work?

Either way wtf just f#cking figure it out & f#cking fight. Always with this marinating & money bs. Its boxing...f#cking box top guys.

You damn right!

According to WBA, IBO junior middleweight champion Erislandy Lara (24-2-2, 14 KOs), he was looking forward to facing Olympian Demetrius Andrade (24-0, 16 KOs), but claims the fight fell apart over money. Andrade captured the WBA's "regular" version of the world title when he traveled to Germany last month to win a twelve round decision over Jack Culcay.

SEE....I hope all you people saying GGG "ducked" Lara (who doesn't even fight at 160) now realize who the real duck is. Lara's been feasting on tin cans and has-beens, the first time he is faced with a guy who can beat him, he ducks out.

Lara is a running joke, literally.

[Jsmooth9876]

He didn't want to get paid 1000 kipahh's like Lara's last opponent ?
