Comments Thread For: Golovkin: Canelo is Champ at 160, Never Faced a Middleweight!

[madsweeney]

Even fighting Lara would've been something. Dude is facing nothing but bums.

His new nickname should be BBB or Triple B, because he faces 3 bums a year or Bum after Bum after Bum.

Lara managed himself out of big names once he signed with Haymon and hes a 154 fighter. Good fighter but doubt GGG would get much credit for the win as he'd be "blowing him up" and he's already lost to Saul.

I don't know what's funnier. You trying to justify blatant hypocrisy. Or, you saying that GGG was "willing to make concessions." Newflash f.uck n.igga, GGG can't make concessions. Outside of you and his other 96,999 fans, he's a complete nobody. Nobodies can't make concessions. They either bend over or keep it moving.

It's close, but the hypocrisy is funnier.

That dude still defends manny-weight to this day..... but only when he is having a break from bashing canelo-weight

[QballLobo]

GGG fans are going to be so disappointed when their hero accepts the fight at a lower weight than 160. Can't wait.

I never never seen a more reluctant " killer " in my life.

And I don't think I have ever seen more b1tch-ass fans either.

The rep that the fans/media have put on this guy is a total joke.

Golovkin just spent 3 years saying he can beat anyone at 154, then he totally refused to back up that wild claim..... and despite practically begging for that fight..... lil'G just admitted that Canelo is not, and has never fought, a true middleweight.

He wanks on about "respect for the sport"..... and yet had no "respect for the sport" whatsoever when it came to Andre Ward.

If Canelo jumps to 160 and fights Golovkin, the kid is more of a man than Hypekin will ever be.

they ducking doe....there comes a point a where a person has to take some responsibility for the situation they are in.


GGG is a talented fighter, wasting his prime on belts that mean very little. Fight no name mandatories.....hell his team said 154-175....it would be nice if it was even 154-160....hell.

they been pumping this guy up since 2013 and he has only fought 1 good middleweight....Lemieux


Murray lost all his fights vs world rated guys.....Geale was a decent fighter but no world beater and losing to Cotto like that was the icing on the cake.


His level of hype, surpasses his accomplishments and opponents. Thats why even though he has a lot of hype in the media and casual fans yet he isnt a stay yet. He doesnt fight good enough competition. Mike Tyson ran through no names 2 years blitzing them like this guy and went on to fight top rated heavies back to back until he lost to douglass....thats a monster, thats a beast.....years beating top guys back to back...GGG has made a career of being a side show like butterbean...crappy competition and high light reel kos

GGG fights one decent fight a year and the others even hard core fans are scratching their heads.

its ok, they already have an excuse if he happens to lose...you know the rules..."he was drained, doe!!!"


yea right....this guy is on weight one month out before the weigh in

its all politics....GGG can make 155 safely, he stays in shape year round....much respeck for that

[GodOfBoxing]

Their is Nothing "wrong" with two fighters contracting at a Catch-weight just so long as both camps argee. This being a mandatory....the only purpose of a "Catch-weight" is some sort of advantage. Obviously this time the other side doesn't want because it's disadvantage. So, "nice nice" Canelo now is stuck-a-roo-ko!
I guess he better get adapted.
Not sure if this -twist- gonna have psychological disadvantage now, for him. It's possible! BOXING CAREERS ARE FILLED WITH UP's & DOWNS!
Aught to be an "excellent promotion". *Risky business!

You guys are funny, just a couple years ago you were *****ing about Pac's catch-weight bs, now your lauding and justifying Canelo's BS.

im not justifying anything. Manny spent the last 5 years fighting at welterweight....yet fighting guys with little worth at 147....JMM has lost to everyone there except him......Bradley did nothing there before they fought.....Mosley was not a catchweight(of course he hadnt looked good in years)....Cotto was coming off a fight he barely won vs clottey and a beating from Margo....Manny fights him at CW..Rios isnt even fringe there...Algieri wasnt ranked...margo wasnt ranked yet they fight for a title at a catchweight, neither are ranked at jrM...THAT WAS THE WORST OF IT ALL THE MARGO FIGHT


dont even bring Manny into this...his ww adventure was smoke, mirrors, catchweights and fighting people after grueling fights and ko losses

And Floyd fought a bunch of killers coming of wins over Berto or Broner lol..oh and sucked Canelo down under a weight he held titles at and had fought multiple times at... The MF'er "retired" when he could have fought Cotto,Williams,Margarito,Mosely, all better versions of themselves..instead we know what he did...

Lol what a hypocrite. Apply the same standards to Canelo or GTFOH with your bs. Face it, the only reason you're on the side of the argument you are is because Floyd is the only guy to beat Canelo...so naturally, you want Canelo to be some superstar to give Floyd more props...pathetic. Some great win, using the bs catch-weight tactics you rag on Pac for...but want Canelo to use on GGG.
