How arrogant of him and Abel...He hasn't fought ONE name opponent and he feels he deserves a Canelo payday? Fight Lara!

GGG doesn't need the sh!tbag anymore. Pollo Canelo needs to earn his shot now.

I'd love to see GGG vs. Lara. I think GGG Wins but I def think Lara will give GGG the toughest fight of his career so far. It'll probably be ugly though lol

I think Lara would be far too gun-shy to make it an interesting fight.

Why do people keep mentioning Lara? When exactly has he ever fought at 160?

GGG has the belt now that Canelo dropped it and clucked across the street. It's Canelo that needs to earn his shot now.

Because he's the top P4P fighter who is interested in fighting Golovkin and he's only a division below.

Golovkin should be looking to fight him in the next 12 months, whether or not the Alvarez fight happens.

He's not on any P4P lists I've seen, but whatever. If you want GGG to show you how much more efficiently he can handle Lara than Canelo could I'm all for it.

He's not in the top 10, but he's still the best fighter who wants to fight Golovkin.

It would probably be Golovkin's best win.

When did Lara become a top P4P fighter? Last time I checked he wasn't on any top 10 P4P list. And he couldn't seal the deal on the shot he had with Canelo.

So who's a better P4P fighter who is interested in fighting Golovkin then?

Lara is so overrated that it isn't funny. What is his best win? Trout? Angulo? Everyone Lara beat, GGG would've beat in a more devastating fashion.

His best official win is definitely Trout. Though he should have a win over Paul Williams which would be his best win.

Trout.

I don't even rate Lara very highly, but who is a better P4P fighter who is interested in a fight with Golovkin?

If Alvarez is interested then I'd say him, but it's not looking too good at the moment.

Lara is higher p4p than any of Golovkin's previous opponents, but it doesn't mean that some of them wouldn't beat him, as he is smaller.

I'd love to see GGG/Lara, though the promotional issues make it difficult. He certainly doesn't need Lara.

He doesn't need him, but if Alvarez ducks him then who's he going to fight?

Saunders? Jacobs? Eubank Jr? Lee? Quillin?

It's slim pickings at middleweight. They should at least try to make the Lara fight.

He certainly isn't fighting Jacobs or Quillin. Or Lara, Al isn't going to make that fight. He has in house fights for Lara.

Haven't any of you clowns noticed how much crap chickenelo is copping for fighting opponents smaller than himself, yet here you all are saying GGG should do exactly the same thing, there hasn't been any offer from Lara's side, you clowns haven't realised yet that fighters sometimes drop other fighters names to keep themselves relevant,if Lara really wanted to fight him then he should test the waters fighting 1-2 MWs first to show he is serious, you guys are suckers that keep pushing this angle

G is trying to attract fans, not detract them. Lara can move up to MW and wait in line if he wants a fight so bad.

It's a good fight for Golovkin.

How is anyone a sucker or a clown for mentioning it as a possibility?

So Golovkin should run from one of his best possible opponents?

Who else is a better opponent for Golovkin at middleweight?

I'd have no issue if Golovkin fought Lara next. He'll knock him out, and make a statement in doing so.
