    A win by Golovkin finally shuts up the idiots who thought GGG was ducking Lara and would lose to him. Golovkin will give him some breaks alright ... ribs I'm guessing.

    Who wants to bet Golovkin won't fight him. He'd rather get that Zerafa work

    At this point both GGG and Lara are both well on the downside. Zerafa might actually be fairly close to this delapidated version of Lara in ability given that he's not got liver spots from age yet..

    Old-man box-off, love it. Some of the most complained about decisions on the board carried on their chip-enshrined shoulders :lol:

    GGG has slowed down but if he has a target he can hit he's gonna pulverise it

    Can you imagine the odds of Lara winning a close decision over Golovkin for the middleweight title ... and in September getting a rematch with a bored Canelo and edging him on points as well?

    o_O

    That's Cinderella Man stuff there.

    Decisioning Golovkin would be huge enough. Not sure he's up for it. But Golovkin doesn't look so good, anymore.

    And Lara has already handled Canelo, himself.

    It isn't likely, but it's not out of the realm.

    Lara has always bored TF out of me but if he did that I'd suck up the tears and clap hands.

    He's kinda dull. But he's the type who fights to his level of competition.

    He just needs a quality opponent.

    His fights with Canelo, Hurd, Williams, Angulo, etc. weren't boring. A fight with Golovkin shouldn't be, either.
