    you cant even begin to bring up the names of victor ortiz and berto when comparing to guys like bondrovas and kopylenko lol

    as bad as ortiz and berto are they are still levels above those guys...and have been in the ring with top guys in the sport....whereas those guys best opponents is actually willie monroe lol

    now yer reaching terribly

    Could be an interesting fight if it can be made and Lara can perform well at 160. Two big ifs. If it happens I don't think Lara will get knocked out early because he will move away from Golovkin rather than engage him toe-to-toe, which would be suicide. I think he will employ a similar strategy to the one he used against Canelo which will see him losing the fight on the cards if he ever makes it to the last bell. In order for him to have a chance at winning he is going to have to be willing to take risks against GGG, moving in and out of range while blasting him with accurate combinations. I always thought Lara had the skills to fight that way at his very best, but I have yet to see him do it against top competition. His approach against GGG will be "safety first". If he fights differently he will get knocked out sooner rather than later.

    Soto-Karass who KO'd Berto was KO'd by Rosado, yet GGG beat him with ease. So I'd say Berto was comparable to Bondrovas and Kopylenko, he's a C-Level fighter who's been beaten every time he stepped up, and I like Berto.

    lol...you are an idiot....i cant even be bothered to respond to that kind of moronic logic....

    look the names on bertos resume...and then look at bondrovas and kopylenko...lol

    look at you trying to use some form of triangulation with rosado.....you are a buffoon....

    you are getting more desperate with each post

    No more idiotic and desperate than you look on a daily basis trying to find every way humanly possible basically bending over backward to criticize everything GGG does.

    no...you look way more idiotic....

    gggs resume is garbage....he ducked ward...those are both obvious facts.....and his fans claim anyone who hates on him hates him because hes white...yet no one says boo about kovalev do they?

    i dont have to bend over backward to criticize ggg...i can do it easily sitting down comfortably in a chair

    meanwhile yer trying to knock andre berto because i said two guys on willie monroes resume have no resume of their own......and trying to triangulate berto to ggg through rosado? lmao...thats desperate

    face it...ggg isnt beyond reproach....hes given every excuse in the book....the finger is always pointed somewhere else......criticizing him is easy work when you look at some of the thing his idiotic fans say

    it has nothing to do with race.....with fighters of another race its "take risks...take challenges....prove how great you are ....fight for the fans and legacy"....but for ggg its ok to stay where he is and protect his 0 in a weak division

    wake up man...nobody, not even the usual floyd supporting suspects, say a bad word about kovalev

    Try looking at all the pro Stevenson threads f you want to see hatred and racial vitriol of Kovalev, there's a a lot of hate for him on this forum.

    Problem will be he won't ever make it to a ggg beatdown.

    I'm sorry, but way too many mw would crush him. Man he has too many at lmw that could take him out quicker than most mw's.

    Why wouldn't he take out the charlos, if he thinks so highly of himself.

    I'll tell you why, Jermall Charlo knocked him the phuck out last October in training, he's literally getting the phuck away from 154, 160 ain't going to be any good for him.

    to be honest...ive never really set foot in any of those threads....so i havent paid attention

    but id be willing to bet if some of you had been a little more kinder to some of the african american fighters in the past? you probably wouldnt see it much.......ill tell you this much...im a patriots fan...been since birth...i have a blown up picture of me and john hannah at training camp when i was 3 and i have season tix.....fans of others teams hate us...and they call us arrogant fans and *****s....and u know why we are? because everytime one of them even attempts to give us credit it always comes with a "but" followed by something snide.....rarely do i hear someone say "you know what the patriots are a great organization and i respect them"...its always some nonsense......and then fans of other teams wonder why they get lip in return or something rubbed in their face when the patriots are successful

    i know myself ive never said anything about bad about kovalev...you almost cant...

    as ive mentioned...he got a 50 year old in the ring with him....he beat pascal the eff up and pascal is wanting to do it again......and yet ggg cant get anyone to fight? kova has the same rep as ggg!!!

    but its always "well pascal wants the money" or some reason why kova can get fights but ggg cant

    I don't get the obsession with Lara vs Golovkin. I think Lara makes him look slow and stylistically has the advantage but he's not durable enough to last with Golovkin.

    I'm pretty sure most GGG fans would love to see this fight. They're just realistic enough to know there are various reasons why it might not happen, as opposed to your pitifully simplistic view.

    I'd like to see this fight. I wish Lara would be more vocal about it. Even his manager DeCubas said they never contacted K2 about a fight. What are they waiting for? K2 isn't going to go chase Lara a guy who fights at 154. GGG would get slammed for picking on little guys at 154.
