    Yes exactly.

    The problem is Andrade.

    Andrade can take risks and earn a fight with a big name like Sergio Martinez did, or he can spend all day crying to the media about how no one will hand him an opportunity like Vanes Martirosyan did. It's up to him.

      They paid Derevy so GGG could get that belt.

        That's the key question

          If DAZN can't get GGG-Canelo, they should probably try to force Andrade-GGG at some point. Probably not right before GGG-Murata though, that'd be a little silly and harsh on GGG.

          Also, if GGG sees the Andrade fight as a screw job in the making with DAZN cashing him out and using his name to give Andrade a big name on his resume, to build him better, then I can see why he would push back.

          In theory, if they can't force the Canelo fight with GGG, then DAZN should probably match these two up. Just comes down to timing.

            One thing is for sure! GGG’s name on his resume will help out Andrade greatly. Not to mention adding the IBF belt to the WBO. Mall has to fight him then, winner slaps Murata around in Japan in the winter….plenty of time for both to happen. Wtf wait till December for GGG. That’s a waste imho
            oh the fight would def help out andrade...the problem is it doesnt do much for golovkin....i mean yeah for me it would be big for him...it would actually prove something to me....that golovkin isnt just a carefully guided overrated fighter who is willing to take a chance on a high risk guy.....but he wont do that....hes always shown us what he is....hes a good fighter no doubt but hes not nearly as good as his fans and some of the media wanted us to believe he was

              They're going to pay less for a unification?

                same BS over and over with no evidence/data to your claims. hbo is the network that gave canelo 6 out of 7 fights against unranked opponents when he started fighting on their network. 6 out of 7 of gggs opponents were in the top 10 when he started fighting on hbo but yeah keep telling us about that easy road ggg had! even 3 out of floyds first 5 fights on hbo were against unranked fighters oops!!! you got it wrong what a surprise! POINT DEBUNKED!

                point two he also showed a willingness to fight anyone. he signed to fight pirog when no one else wanted to fight him. he was willing to fight martinez, cotto, sturm, quillin, saunders, canelo, etc..if they wanted it while guys like ward did not want the top guys. after signing with hbo ward ducked the top guys and wanted hbo to approve dmitri sartison. look it up. its all there. he said no to bute, froch 2, ggg. this is why they fought in court and ward was soundly defeated. hbo had no problem with gggs opponents and knew he would fight the top guys when the time came which he did. instead of looking at the evidence you just made up your own story.

                your whole argument seems to be blaming ggg because the big name guys waited to fight him. its very strange and makes little sense. and if he was just hype how come everyone had him beating canelo at least once and fighting him evenly in the second fight? he didnt get blasted by a fringe gy like maidana or victor otiz. that should prove he wasnt hype but your bias and hate is taking over you ability to think correctly and make cohernet arguments.

                also they were building ggg up for one of their bigger stars. you dont even get it! its hilarious. you are comparing him to floyd? the guy who sold millions of ppvs? that obviously was never going to be ggg. ggg was a popular hbo fighter who could cross over to ppv if he was fighting a big name guy. he was not a ppv mega star like canelo, floyd, oscar etc....the fact you are unable to even interpret reality correctly is frightening. mind bobbling even.
                youre an idiot....youre one of the biggest golovkin raisin(the size of his nuts) riders on here and anything you say isnt taken seriously....

                oh i do get it...i do know why they were building golovkin up...for canelo....ive known that long before you actually knew you preferred the company of men.....but at least you understand my point...they were building him up ...thanks for admitting it

                lol@comparing canelos HBO start to golovkins....completely different ages and points in their career.....i have plenty of evidence and data and logic to back up my claims...they are wasted on a dolt like you....you change timelines, stories etc to fit your narrative "golovkin never did anything wrong"....dont u find it sad you cant even find one thing to criticize golovkin over? lol....his career has been a disappointment and came up short of the boastful claims of fgts like yourself.....yet you guys cant even admit anything is/was ever wrong....its always someone elses fault with you clowns! lol....youre a waste...and a waste of time!

                  Is that Murata fight going to be on DAZN or is ESPN co-promoting?

                  IDK much about the goings on behind it but it seemed like GGG making plans on his own for this Murata fight; must be working with TR in some capacity...I'm wondering if DAZN is just like hold on fella, you aren't about to sit out all year with your little sideplan. Having to wait all year for that fight is frustrating as a fan; the fight itself is decent but it's only late June wtf.

                  Meanwhile, Andrade will just wait himself too so nothing moves...I would like to see him fight Dereyvencheko if nothing else is gonna happen

                    Can anyone recall a fighter in recent memory with a weirder career than Andrade? I can't recall another fighter who, forget beltholders or top ranked guys, can't even secure fights with well-known B or C levels fighters (current or former). I mean really, you're telling me Andrade couldn't get a dance with David Lemieux, Curtis Stevens, Gary O'Sullivan, freaking Gabe Rosado who will fight anyone anywhere, Martin Murray, Matthew Macklin and on and on and on. All these guys at middleweight all these years. It's like riding a real bad cold streak, eventually you get laid by accident and get back on track but not this guy! I feel as though there's just no true barometer as to what he's got.

                    That said, and for all else aside it's a unification fight, they should be fighting, end of story in my book. Make em fight! I want to see it
