Maybe he just wants to prove he's the best of his era.

I can't see anyway someone could justify NOT wanting to see Floyd-Golovkin IF they're calling for Floyd to fight anyone else at 160. It's not like GGG isn't a champion........
Saying Golovkin is too big, cool. Totally understandable. But if you think Floyd-Hopkins at 160, or Floyd-Sergio is OKAY, I really don't understand why no Floyd-Golovkin.
inb4 who has Golovkin beat...
brb Victor Ortiz (what?)

Sergio Martinez in 2014 would be easy work for Floyd IMO. If Floyd, and boxing fans want him to get challenged, you've gotta be insane to think Golovkin isn't his toughest potential challenger if he's looking for anyone north of 154. Like I said, at the least Golovkin is still a champion.
The right thing would be to have Martinez fight Golovkin for MW supremacy which is what all fans want, and the winner fight Floyd. But obviously, that's a total longshot..

I know you see ggg's power and amatuer background and assume this means he is legit.
That said, I would hope posters like you learned a valuable lesson after saturday. I know GGG is HBO's new hot guy because of his string of KO's. They are very impressive. But be careful annointing him the best MW before he beats the best. Sergio may humble GGG the same way Danny humbled Matts.

Originally posted by King- View PostI agree Sergio is the lineal champ and on paper that SHOULD be the fight to make if Floyd fights any MW's. But in reality, most people know Martinez at this point is their for the taking. He's 38, plagued with injuries and many people (myself included) thought he lost his last fight to Martin Murray and shouldn't even be lineal champ anymore (if that fight wasn't in Argentina, probably wouldn't have gotten the decision anywhere else)
