Have I ever said lil G wasn't a draw?
He doesn't care about the belt...but he's entered negotiations to fight at the full 160 limit, a weight he said he wouldn't fight at, in order to keep said belt instead of just dropping it?
Makes sense
Lara is not big. He's 5'9 and the same height as Canelo. They are both shorter than J Rock, Lubin, & Andrade who are 5'11", 5'11", and 6'1.
But yet, people have cosigned me in here as well as on Twitter once I made the statement.
So J Rock or Andrade should fight Lubin who only has 14 fights
J Rock and Andrade are on 2 different paths currently. J Rock is mandatory for the winner of Jermell Charlo and Austin Trout, but willing to give up his shot if Canelo ducks lil g and fight him at 155
Andrade is facing Willie Nelson after finally squashing his promoter issues. I'm sure Andrade & Williams wouldn't avoid each other....both Williams & Andrade called out Lara who didn't take the fight
“Lara said anytime, anywhere. How about April or May if he needs more time to hit the track and get extra laps in? One more thing, Lara, I have NEVER walked away from a signed contract. EVER! You probably never stopped running around long enough to even know that. The only contract I ever signed to fight Charlo was a month ago and Charlo declined. Lara said I signed a contract to fight Charlo before that. If he can show me an agreement that I signed to fight Charlo on December 13th, I promise to stop calling him out. Lara, you can run – everybody knows you do — but you can’t hide. We have unfinished business to take care of.”
Demetrius Andrade challenges Erislandy Lara
WBA super welterweight champion Erislandy Lara has a November 25th fight scheduled against Jan Zaveck but Williams said he would definitely be interested in facing the highly avoided Cuban in the future.
"That is a good fight to be made. He has a title and like I said I want a title shot and he has a title.

So....what are you talking about breh?
See above
All these excuses
He signed to face Kirkland in January 2015 and the fight took place in May 2015. I'm sure Andrade would've been available for a May 2015 fight...especially considering he had last fought in June 2014 on HBO and was the WBO Junior Middleweight Champion.
This video came out 2 weeks after Canelo announced he was fighting Kirkland:
So apparently, he wanted the fight, but Kirkland "earned" the shot instead
As far as your challenge for me to show you 1 Boxer who faced better competition over the last 3 years...
