Uses a jab against weaker guys? Lol you must be a casual.
It's true. He used a solid jab against Lemiuex, but if we're honest, Lemiuex is so one dimensional and has no defensive techniques to help neutralize a jab.
Where was that jab against Brook? Oh he didn't need it. Once he got tired of getting embarrassed mid fight he went blitzkrieg on Brook with you guessed it.....his power. Surprise, surprise.
I like fighters who stay in their natural division more than guys who hop around opportunistically. It seems the "Broner method to ATGness" only exists on this forum, but you guys are big fans of repeating each other.
Factor in 168 being a wasteland with Badou Jack and George Groves at the top of the heap.
Doesn't seem like you've watched many of his fights.
I've watched 3. Enough to make some conclusions.
Guys, before you get angry and hit me with your purse to protect your man, try and be open minded and analyze, think about what I wrote. Too many of us feel this way.
I'm just the messenger, being honest on how I see the Golovkin situation. Golovkin himself is a great dude who carries himself with respect. I'm just telling you guys why most of us don't buy the hype.
For you a much more to important question is, why don't sorry alts get any respect. Think about that one for a minute
Not an alt. Been lurking for about 3 years. Honestly just been lazy and uninterested in registering.
I've got more fish to fry as well.
Pacquiao was on steroids.
Golovkin needs to move up
Canelo needs to fight more solidified jr middleweight competition.
Ward stepped up and is fighting Kov. He will beat Kov.
Marquez sliced up pacman 3/4 fights.
Mayweather waited too long on Pacquiao and also lost to Castillo, but he schooled Pac.
Garcia is a fraud.
Junior vs Golovkin is a close fight.
Golovkin would do alright at 168, just not as dominant.
Boxing is not dead.
PBC will die off in 2 years.
Mayweather will be filing for bankruptcy in 7 years.
There you go Larry
I sort of understand people wanting him to move up to 168. But my question is, why? 168 is as crap as 160 and are there any guarantees of those guys there fighting him?
Who doesn't want to se that? Seriously I would LOVE it.
I would pay to see him matched against someone who isn't going to get burrowed into the corner and handle his punches.
I would be genuinely curious to see what he would do, how he will box.
Is it so wrong I want to see that??
Golovkin is making peanuts at the moment. 10million is more than he'll ever make. Just sign the terms and re-negotiate for a second fight, win or lose.
So sick of Golovkin, his trainer and his fanboys. Either fight Canelo and make 10million, more than you'll ever make ...or move on to 168.
I want to see how bad ass Golovkin is once his power is neutralized at 168lbs. Let's see if he really likes giving us a big drama show.
ARE you serious! How is it ggg holding up a fight that is poised to happen in a year.
So you think ggg should sign for ten million now and not even try to get tens of millions, even though it's highly likely he will get a better deal.He should just sit back quietly wait until Canelo fights him in September, hoping that Mr. "Ginger headed I'm a MW Mexican who doesn't fvck around here have my belt" can man up.
You think ggg should accept a deal now for a fight damn near a year away and not negotiate himself a better deal. Especially knowing that he's a Strong B+ side and a major component to making the biggest fight in the sport. Knowing he has the media and large swath of casuals supporting him. If Canelo wasn't tremendously under pressure, they would constantly be talking ggg name.
Ha, do yourself a favor, stay the fvck away from negotiating anything. I mean don't even negotiate with your girlfriend, because you suck at this.
Lord, you've put together some sizable essays in defence of GGG. Youre trying too hard and youve lost credibility as an unbiased opinion with no objective feedback.
My only advice to you...get his C..ck out of your mouth.
The sleaze this guy has. Disgusting.
We don't need shady guys like this in boxing. He was a big reason for the cold war. Now he'll be excluding his fighters from Top Rank and Golden boy.
Oscar brought this two face into the boxing world, unfortunately trusting him.
Go back to banking.
I'm new here, but reading a JASON SHAW post is a serious chore. Hard to read and make sense of his points.
Mostly a bunch of "Oscarina delanina homoninomo". His paragraph's are 9th grade level intellect.
As it should be. Im tired of Floyd and Manny.
I advise boxing scene to allow the inevitable, and refrain from spamming the forum with threads involving those named above.
Schaefer is a sleazey businessman. He has great business acumen, unfortunately his ethical values come up short and rate on a level of that found on a flea market salesman. He had a fiduciary responsibilty to Golden Boy and decided indifference with being the CEO of a major boxing promotional company.
Oh, and what a B-rated name for his company.
