How? Please explain how Lara could This content is protected fight GGG at 160lbs on HBO. Other than beating Danny Jacobs for the WBA belt, getting a mandatory shot and forcing purse bids is the only way i see it happening. If Run-n-Hide Promotions wins the bids, they could put the fight on Food Network because lara would get eaten alive:rofl Also, I wonder why hasn't Jacobs' people petitioned the WBA to order GGG to fight?
I'd like to see a show of hands as to how many of you whiners have actually seen 1 or more of Willie's fights.
I'll have a Willie thread up by tomorrow to educate these idiots some more, he's a decent pretty solid fighter
Haven't seen any besides his last 4 that were on ESPN2. I'm usually joking when I say it, but I guess people really don't watch fights :rofl
Hey, he's fighting a young guy who's on a roll (albeit against ESPN fighters), and has boxing lineage. Might be good.
:conf Its pretty obvious most of these poster don't.atschAnd don't know what the **** they're talking about.
That is about as relevant right now as me saying that Macklin, Geale, and Murray are no Mosley, Judah, and Sergio.
Yeah, well Carlos Molina was the least appreciated fighter by the mainstream and was one of the most valued fighters by "hard core boxing fans" for several years. Bundrage went to Mexico and beat him up badly. That alone, > Monroe's career might ever be. Let alone all the other solid wins over contenders that Bundrage has which Monroe will most likely retire wishing he had a fraction of... Just sayin'. To say that Monroe right now is better than Bundrage in any way as an opponent on a resume is just the eye-test-opinion, which is the least relevant opinion in a discussion of the merit of an opponent's worth as a challenger going into a fight. Otherwise I could say, "I've seen this 0-0 guy spar once. He's a killer. He would destroy Chad Dawson right now." And then actually valuing a win over that 0-0 guy more than one over Dawson right now.
Carlos Molina is overrated and K9 was a stylistic nightmare for Molina that's why I picked K9 to beat Molina, he's so awkward and unpredictable Molina has no idea how to use his spoiler style against him, Lara, Chavez and Kirkland are very predictable and that's why he performed vaguely well against them. Not only that but how do we know after all of his legal troubles his head just wasn't in it. I like K9 but Monroe while I don't like his style necessarily is a far more skilled and technically sound fighter than K9 and would be a tougher match for Cotto than K9 and would dominate both Molina and K9.
Im not sure why people keep comparing Cotto's and Golovkin as if they are in the same situation. Saying "Golovkin fans would have a panic attack if Cotto was fighting Munroe" is pretty much admitting you dont have a solid mental grip on what the situation is at middleweight. Cotto, could make the Golovkin fight happen tomorrow morning if he wanted to..... him picking Munroe would be no more frustrating then him picking any other non top 10 middleweight to defend against. Golovkin chose Munroe because the only guy above him in ranking wont fight him, and the next 10 guys are all not available. Cotto is the reason this fight is happening in the first place.
