    1. Because Lara has never offered to fight him. GGG's promoter has said multiple times that no offer from Lara has ever been received. And if they have made one show proof of it. No proof has ever been shown

    2. Because Lara is a light middleweight and GGG is a middleweight, GGG has mado obligations and goals to unify the division. Lara has not moved up in weight and Lara can't draw flies to poo so why should GGG move down and fight him like a B-sider.

    3. GGG is on HBO, Lara is with Haymon on PBC

    4. Al Haymon will not allow Lara to fight GGG even if he wanted to.


    So I suggest you make a new thread and title it 'why does Lara keep calling out GGG on twitter with no interest in fighting him in the ring'

    Well now, Peter Quillin is an Al Haymon client too, how many hundreds of millions is a fight with him worth, since Sanchez has been asking for it?

    They wanted the winner of Andy Lee-Quillin, which means a unification bout.

    He can't claim Lara won't sell if he's been fighting guys several rungs below Lara happily and Canelo took the guy on with no fuss.

    HBO have NEVER banned a Haymon fight.

    Please don't believe they would exclude a Haymon fighter from fighting on their network.

    Not saying they'd allow Wlad to use Szpilka as one of his contacted fights....But if Wilder wanted some.....they'd pay him quite handsomely.
    Same goes for Quillin and Stevenson and Mayweather etc etc etcetera

    They want all the MW title holders, you're going on an irrelevant (and false) tangent here.


    HBO and Haymon don't mix unless it's Floyd, it's really easy to understand. GGG-Lara threads are troll threads, there's no validity or substance in them.

    So any Dirrels hold a title???.
    Sure Andre was arguably robbed in UK and blatantly robbed in the USA....BUT so was Murray, against far better opposition.

    And GGG gets shiit on fur beating him to near death, in dominating fashion.
    Sure...Tony won a title. But then he got dominated by a lower level fighter.
    Sounds a lot like Geale except Geale lost a razor close fight against a good contender who went on to fight injured and get beat.

    As for Lara....most GGG fans want the fight.
    Many of us think he was robbed vs Canelhoe, and has done fairly well against pressure fighters like GGG.

    If Haymon sent Loeffler and offer, then GGG IS DUCKING.

    I ASKED IF LOEFFLER WOULD SEND HAYMON a contract... And he avoided the question.

    Though....in his defence....He did speak quite candidly about the Froch fight and even said BHOP could be worked out.
    So....maybe he skimmed thru my lengthy email and simply sent me a pre fabricated reply. Idk

    Probably an issue of sensitive stuff regarding any possible contract negotiation, makes it hard to go on record sometimes without a lot of thought.

    Plus, its pretty clear that had they their way - they would much rather a name or title holder at 160 or 168 anyhow.

    Lara claims his team is actually talking now though, didnt trash talk - said he thought there was a 50% chance of fight happening. So it stands to reason that Loeffler might be a bit tight lipped on the matter, with so many issues.

    :roll: awwwwww....did somebody buy more house than they can afford?


    OT: Bottom line for me is that Golovkin needs to fight a credible opponent. He's unlikely to get Cotto or Canelo into the ring until their business is done, if ever.

    Sure I'd rather see him fight Froch or Ward, but those fights don't appear to be materializing.

    Lara would be by far the best fighter Golovkin has fought in the pros and is asking for the fight.

    It ain't rocket science. Make the fight already.
