    Falcao is a decent fighter but this is a mismatch imo.

    This is the next fight for GGG. He Just doesn't want the Lara fight.

    He has to fight like GGG again. At middleweight hopefully he wont be so sluggish.

    Hopefully, but I think hes towards the end now. He should beat Falcao but I really want to see the Lara fight.

    Let me guess... Golovkin wins by KO in round 10...

    Just took a look at Falcao right now. He looks to be a good, well rounded fighter with a decent gas tank. Nice array of punches and cuts the ring off well. Basically, solid overall. That said I can't see him giving GGG too many problems. Prime GGG would have run through him like a bull through a china shop. 40 y/o GGG will probably still be too much for him because he doesnt seem to be too hard to hit. I agree the Lara fight would be more interesting.

    Esquiva Falcao's execution ordered by the WBA and IBF, would've been a far more amusing title.:sisi1

    What happened to Jaimie Mungia facing GGG?

    I'd love to see that. I wish that they had fought when they were prime.

    Love GGG but when has he ever wanted anyone who is a big challenge, feels like his Career was just to chase Canelo & KO him like he was expected to the first time on, since that first fight he has just sat out & wasted away his years while taking on no-hopers in between, sad.

    I think GGGs DAZN contract is over, it will be interesting to see where he lands. He had a pretty sweet deal when DAZN started up and they were handing out big contracts, I wonder what a fight with him and Falcao is worth in 2023?

    How does Golovkin over-rule Lara as mandatory? Seems Lara is happy to let Falcao have his shot. And to fight Danny Garcia. And the organisations are happy to collect their percentages from Golovkin’s purses.

    Falcao is just the type of fighter GGG likes to feast on.
