Could Golovkin end up being the next Jeff Lacy?

If Triple Groupies does become the next Lacy, he will probably kill himself.


Going from hype to Lacy is the worst thing that could happen to GGG.

Got something a little more recent than Jan 2014? Like maybe something from the time period since Jan 2015 when Ward has been able to get in the ring for a fight?

Trying to make a point with a video from a year and a half ago. Talk about grasping at straws.

Hyped up for his power,while yet to fight a real champion..Will Golovkin be exposed at the highest level?

could broner end up being the next Einstein?? that is as wild as your post

Golovkin's actually a central Asian fighter. Kazakh boxing program is pretty distinct from European. I believe HBO did a short segment about Vassily Jirov being trained by a guy who would lock him in a room with attack dogs.

BTW - Ward opened that cut on Paul Smith with a headbutt in like the 4th round (just like the Kolle fight).

ward should have half his purse taken away for holding butting elbowing etc. I wish smith had plaster in his gloves to counter mental ward

July 2014. Almost a full year before Ward fought Smith.

Its the same thing you were explained dozens of times but it never sinks in, go figure. Both guys would want a good chunk but its not ppv so not feasible. Hell just Wards purse would be beyond Hbos budget. Notice he said Ggg was offered a big chunk from Chavez' people, 2.5m guarantee or just under 30%.

But what had Golovkin done to deserve a huge chunk of the purse?

Lets see: stayed very active, destroyed 5 Ring top tenners in 2 years, excellent ratings and live gate, p4p rated himself, Ring readers Foty, got offered a "huge chunk" from biggest star above 154 for ppv. Shortly thereafter got #1 active Smw, p4p rated Froch to issue those infamous quotes, and sent him into retirement

Why ask GGG to go up or down in weight class? If Cotto (who was a great fighter as a welterweight before the cement glove incident) doesn't want to fight GGG he should give up his middleweight title. Chavez Jr didn't want GGG even though his promoter did. I agree he's untested because no one wants to fight him.
