Reporter tells GGG to his face people say your becoming an A**hole lol

did golovkin's recent comments hurt you too much? is that why you bumped this thread? fvvcking groupie Does the fact that everyone can see how bizzare GGG had been acting since canelo put his foot in his azz hurt you too much that's why you come up in here crying like a emotional bytch?

GGG been real phuking grumpy this training camp

Cynthia Conte and Helen Yee asked the tougher questions compared to the MALE GROUPIE Boxing Reporters! Respect to those beautiful Ladies!

I don't even think GGG knew what she meant, I see the translator in his ear at press conferences all the time.

This is more along what I'm thinking has happened. Dude got into his feelings a lil more than he's apt to do & decided to "start over" in a way. Idk that using an interpreter is really punishing the people he feels did him wrong. He's popular cuz of his public persona. GGG using an interpreter his whole time in the US isn't half as popular as he's gotten. Thats one thing I think he's forgetting right now. Idk about all that. I think fans are like that in general at a certain level of popularity. When you get to the level of GGG there are people that are gonna love you for trivial reasons & those that hate you for trivial reasons. It comes with the territory. GGG is just one of many with being a polarizing dude. Canelo has the same thing. Joshua has the same thing. Manny has the same thing. Wilder has the same thing. Anyone who's getting enough attention is in that same lane with GGG its not a thing unique to GGG. The only thing different with GGG from most of those other boxers is he's become one of the few non-latino, non-US boxers in recent boxing history who's reached his level of popularity in the US. Thats a testament to how big he's gotten that he's in such a tiny minority of popular boxers. And that come from his public persona not cuz he is a bad ass in the ring & KO's mfers. Thats part of it, but the public persona was the big rub that got him where he's at. So I guess thats part of the reason GGG going the interpreter route seems like a odd move & like a -EV move for the remaining years of his career. But hopefully this week shows that the whole Russian thing was just a short term move & the negative attention it got made him re-think it or he just re-thought it himself. Honestly, unlike Loma, his english is not getting better, when he speaks english it sucks, "hmmm you know, diz is bizness, drama show, diz is boxing", it only looks like a proper talk when he speaks russian + translate. When I heard his first long russian interview one year ago I was like damn I forgot GGG is a smart dude, because he talks like a moron when he speaks english. So maybe this is just a PR move, also, we all made fun of his english, maybe it's just some PR stuff. Or maybe he's being a diva, or both...

Damn too funny, Gennady "A**hole" Golovkin

Merchant would need to be about 50 years younger, 100lbs heavier & three times as strong to kick my ass with his punk ass :boxing: Yea, but online merchant would be 6’5 260lbs and chiseled.

I just don't see it as related like that. Or it shouldn't be related. The reason GGG got into the position he got into is cuz of all the Good Boy, Drama Show, Mexican Style branding he did. It was genius level sh^t if it was purposely planned or just a dumb luck kinda thing (not unlike Usyk's "I'm very feel" remark). If he is just the Kazakhstan guy who's stoic & quiet & uses a interpreter & does the same thing in the ring as he did he never gets close to the popularity he reached or the money he got or seen half of the bigger fights he's gotten. He's like Tone Loc at whatever age he is now at a concert & refusing to do the song Funky Cold Medina. The reason we know you is cuz of Funky Cold Medina mfer!!!! You better f#cking sing Funky Cold Medina!!!! But like I said in another post maybe this recent string of interviews is showing that he's re-thought the whole interpreter thing. I think he can work behind the scenes like he wants to work to get what he feels is fair while still being the guy the people enjoy in front of the camera & mic. I don't think he gots to be one way all the time. He can still switch things up to his own maximize upside & the reality is people wanna see & hear about the Drama Show & in general just see GGG be GGG not this new Gennadiy guy. He seems to be answering questions in both languages. Eventually someone is going to ask him why and you will get your answer. What you find odd now may make sense later if he gives an explaination. He's probably not going to give an explaination unless he is asked. To me it's not a big deal but I agree it may be because he wants a change. If so and he feels more comfortable getting his thoughts out more accurately through an interpreter then good. He's going to have to improve his English eventually if he wants to run a promotional company.

these american 'journalists' are extremely hostile and disrespectfull

Very classy reporter... If I was Golovkin I'd make sure she never gets any press credentials to any of my fights going forward.

I'm not into the whole diva thing so if thats why you're acting like this isn't a weird change but who's talked English for 8 years or whatever & then suddenly started to use an interpreter if this isn't an odd thing? I don't recall seeing it ever. All im saying is i think we would all do the same, if you've been doing this whole good boy, drama show bs broken english for xyz interviewers for nearly a decade and then you finally get the biggest fight(s) of your career, and then get screwed over, then i would say it would be MORE weird to carry on putting in the same amount of effort into promotions/interviews. **** that **** let the translator do the work now..

Agaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaain, this ain't brain science brother. GGG was not using an interpreter to answer all his questions in & out of the ring that I saw previous to recently. And since a whole bunch of other people have noticed before me, at the same time as me & after me I'm just gonna assume its a f#cking thing. This is something YOU apparently aren't noticing & fair play if you are blind to interpreter's or something cuz idk whats going on with all that on your end, but most of us have noticed something different with that sh^t. If you don't think its a big deal fair play, but lets not argue this isn't a thing when it clearly is something new regardless if he didn't want to before or wants to now or if he's just putting on his buddy who happens to do interpreter sh^t idefk. This is the weirdest discussion I've had on here in a minute lol. People acting like GGG didn't start to use an interpreter out of the f#cking blue after being in the US for like 8 years or w/e. I honestly can't think of a guy who went from not using a interpreter for so long to using one randomly near the end of his career. Its odd. i agree, reading so much into whether a guy is or is not using an interpreter when he can barely speak english in the first place & then claiming that is changing persona and turning into some kind of diva is definately very odd bud.

Idk that I'm spinning it negative at all in what you quoted or in general. I feel I'm being pretty neutral if not entirely neutral. I'm merely saying whats going on & I'm pretty blunt & to the point on this forum with most sh^t. And mostly I'm just curious why did he switch up what made him so popular at this point. I think thats a compelling & interesting question to ask the guy. Idk whats negative about knowing what made GGG change directions with his public persona. If Floyd went from Money May to Bible Floyd all of a sudden I'd be all like "well thats a weird thing...wonder wtf happened there". Thats all I'm curious about here. Its not good or bad to wonder wtf is up as I see it. i dont know if stopping speaking broken english is 'switching persona' tbh, i never watched his interviews in broken english anyways. but considering hes been jobbed in his last 2 big fights, i dont blame him not wanting to play that game....good on him i say..

I dont see how you spin it into a negative, but imo its great hes not bothering to play the whole 'good boy', interviews in english imagine anymore, hes been jobbed agaisnt canelo twice, in fights which practically everyone saw him winning both in, agaisnt a guy that was on PEDS, and now hes the bad guy because he cba to speak in english and he fired a trainer that literally everyone says is not a good trainer to begin with? riiight. Man, very accurate post, like I said, they all clowned him about his bad english, about "disabel" "dirty" Sanchez, now that he fired Abel and talk in Russian, he's an as;shole ROFL I swear those haters/morons are fine to act like morons on the web. It's head I win, tails you lose with those fans who hate any fighter they don't rep.

Again you aren't paying attention if you don't notice how GGG has been acting. AGAIN up til this week he hasn't spoken English in a interview that I've seen. And the fun & charming GGG that made him popular in the first place is gone. AGAIN up til the Canelo fight he'd been a pretty model example of a stoic mfer, but he's been b^tching & moaning so much about Canelo sh^t its weird & cringey. Which is the biggest thing to me by a mile & most un-GGG-like thing. AND AGAIN the name thing is just f#cking odd. Who 8 years or w/e into them being known is all like "that ain't my name" except P Diddy & Old Dirty Bastard? And I'm sure there are other things, but those are the weirdest to me. Randomly anyone ask him why the eff he didn't tell people the right way to spell his name 8 years ago? Thats another question I'd like to hear the answer to. This doesn't seem like something you could miss honestly. If it doesn't strike you as odd fair play then I guess just leave the thread & let the rest of us who see it as odd talk about it, but lets not debate whether a guy doing odd sh^t that doesn't fit the persona we've come to know isn't odd sh^t when most people see it clearly. No it doesn't strike me as odd. Seems to me he is trying to make sure his thoughts come out as intended. There are plenty of interviews where he replied in English like this one. My guess is he wants to put past events in the past and move on. Nothing wrong with that. s far as complaining *****in and whining I haven't seen it. No I'm not leaving the thread. I have an idea. if you can't stand someone disagreeing you why don't you go run to your Mommy and tell them the mean kids are picking on you.

Idk where you been but GGG seems like a whole other person. Up til the interviews I've seen this week he's been speaking exclusively Russian. He told everyone they've been spelling his name wrong for like 8 or so years I think. He was crying & acting all womanly in the media about how he's been treated & sh^t since the Canelo stuff started finally happening. He didn't take the D or L well which is just low level sportmanship type sh^t but it does define competitors like it or not. Look I'm not dick measuring GGG against anyone except GGG with this sorta sh^t so bring up Canelo or whoever you want, but that has nothing to do with what I & most others in this thread are talking about. And the bottom line is GGG has been very un-GGG-like since the whole Canelo fights started happening. I wouldn't necessarily even consider it him "being an ass hole" like it was framed by the interviewer, but the reality is some people have made that type of suggestion. But its clear he's altered how he carries himself as of late regardless of what you wanna define it as. If you don't notice that fair play to you, but I'd say you just aren't paying attention if you haven't noticed it. He just felt bad about getting a draw when he should have won, getting a loss when he shoulda gotten a draw, about Canelo peds and the sport full of hypocrits and haters, and his trainer being limited and a moron. It's kinda like he took him 10 years to realize all of it. Somehow GGG is dumb. It's not about him being an arse now, but he has been too nice than he should have been and probably is. He said himself they "all fake" and he's right. He was nice for 10 years and it didn't pay off, because being nice doesn't pay with shthouses. And boxing is full of shthouses, from medias, fans and promoters. I agree with him and support his attitude 100%. But being an a;shole...yeah, hell no it's not like if dude he went full Broner either. People overeact with GGG in the US for whatever reason he's a very polarizing dude.

Theres a difference between asking the right questions and how you go about it. I mean look at her tweet for ****s sake. She didnt even leave the video long enough for him to answer she just wanted to show off her question Lmao...That tweet a whole other story.

Idk that I'm spinning it negative at all in what you quoted or in general. I feel I'm being pretty neutral if not entirely neutral. I'm merely saying whats going on & I'm pretty blunt & to the point on this forum with most sh^t. And mostly I'm just curious why did he switch up what made him so popular at this point.

Its not good or bad to wonder wtf is up as I see it. What switch up?? He seems the same to me. He probably wants to make sure his messages come out as intended. I mentioned this before but in a ESPN interview in English he once said Canelo was like a Sailfish. That left Max and Smith scratching their heads.

Same chick supposedly pissed off Thurman with a Spence question. Yall can't get mad at her she just asking questions people wanna know.
