    Don't be stupid. Lara has been calling out GGG non stop for the last two years.

    “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.”

    Has he done ANYTHING other than Twitter callout? Like maybe send an offer? Or call him out live like he did Canela?

    Lara would have been a much better fight, but I think the issue was that Eubank insisted the fight be in England and GGG had already rented the O2 Arena. Lara isn't a draw in America. He wouldn't pull **** in England. You need a local fighter to get any sizable audience in that country. When Eubank wouldn't sign by the deadline GGG needed any British fighter he could find who would sign right away, otherwise they wouldn't get a decent training camp. Of the four British fighters available Brook stepped up and signed first.

    I don't think any more thought went into the deal than that. Are you British? Yes. Can you fight in 8 weeks? Yes. Sign here.

    Lara is boring.

    He's called him out live on air after he beat Rodriguez and Vanes.

    This is the tried and tested method fighters have used to get fights. There is NOTHING else he can do.

    K2 keep acting like he doesn't exist.

    I can find many posts of yours trashing Canelo for fighting Khan. This is WORSE.

    But you will defend it cos your a fanboi:tired

    Thats utter nonsense.

    Team Golovkin had absolutely nothing to do with renting the o2 .

    This is my biggest issue with the Brook fight and the Khan fight. Better fighters were available.

    Yes the pay won't be as good but these fights have no legacy benefit whatsoever. I know legacy doesn't pay the bills but I'm not a fan of finances, I'm a fan of fights and better fights could have been made.

    Although GGG-Brook is a bigger farce, Lara is a farce himself.

    That's the problem. Too many fans care about the business side of things. Do we want these men to get paid or do we want them to fight the best available fighters?
