Golovkin DUCKS Lara to fight Munroe Jr

I don't know much about him other than he used to manage Sam Peter and Jirov and obviously his involvement with Golovkin. Is he known for being a bit inept or something?

 

Golovkin would paddle Lara's ass beetroot red raw.

 

An interesting Golovkin interview from late 2010

'Arthur Abraham is considering a return to the middleweight division after his defeat to Carl Froch. What do you think about that? I a fight between you and Abraham possible?

Only Arthur Abraham knows what is the best for Arthur Abraham. But if he decides to return the middleweight division, I would like to fight against him. I have always said that I am capable of beating him and I think that we can find a way to make this fight.

What about your trial against Universum?

There was a court trial on November the 25th. We talked with the representatives of Universum to find a solution, but it was not successful. Now, we need to wait for what the court will decide.

I heard that you had put an end to your collaboration with the agent Ivaylo Gotzev, could you tell me more about it?

Yes, that is right. Ivaylo Gotzev is not my advisor anymore. My team and I have decided not to proceed with our cooperation with Ivaylo Gotzev since it doesn't make any sense for either side. We put an end to our cooperation in October.

Have you seen the fight against Hassan N'Dam and Avtandil Khurtsidze, and if so, what do you think of this fight?

Yes, I saw the fight. Well, it was a good performance for Khursidze and I am not sure that N'Dam actually won this fight.

Avtandil Khurtsidze, we said in an interview that he never had a proposal from your team to face him?

I would advise him to talk with his management more often since we talked with his management about a possible fight several times. Besides, he even signed a bout contract for a fight against me.

Your manager Max Herman attempted to mount a fight between you and Sebastian Zbik, what really happened?

Yes, we wanted this fight. Unfortunately, it was not possible to finance the fight. But I still think this fight can happen and if we can find the finance base and get an agreement with Universum, we will do the fight.

The WBA had ruled that you and Hassan N'Dam, you must battle before the end of January. Are you ready to fight on December 16 and before February 2011?

Of course I am ready. After my next fight in Kazakhstan, we will contact the management of N'Dam and discuss the conditions of the bout between Hassan and me. I hope that this fight will take place in January or February. I hope that N'Dam and his management will not go out of my way this time. I think there are too manychampions in this weight division. So I am going to fight N'Dam first and then Felix Sturm by the summer or autumn 2011.

What do you know your next opponent Nilson Julio Tapia?

I think he is a tough guy. He is Nr. 4 in the WBA ranking and is not afraid to come to Kazakhstan.

How has your preparation been for this fight?

The preparation in Big Bear was very good. I am very satisfied. I think I have received the best opportunities for my preparation in Big Bear and I am really lucky to have one of the best trainers in the world at my side. I think we are good team.

What are your plans for 2011?

As I said, there will be a fight against N'Dam and a fight against Felix Sturm. Then I would like to fight against one of big stars in the US. In particular, Sergio Martinez is one the great guys out there I would love to fight.'
