Ronnie Shields said the WBA would make Vera the mandatory if he beats the guy he fought last week. Although, I haven't heard anything directy from the WBA.Comment

Okay give me a reason why he can't fight the following opponents in 2013 or why Proksa is the only guy in the list he's fought so far.
160 division:
1. • Sergio Martinez
2. • Daniel Geale
3. • Julio Cesar Chavez Jr
4. • Gennedy Golovkin (himself)
5. • Peter Quillin
6. • Mathew Macklin
7. • Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam
8. • Sam Soliman
9. • Felix Sturm
10. • Martin Murray
11. • Dmitry Pirog
12. • Darren Barker
13. • Grzegorz Proksa
14. • Marco Antonio Rubio
15. • Andy Lee
16. • Brian Vera
17. • Max Bursak
18. • Osumanu Adama
19. • Avtandil Khurtsidze
20. • Sebastian Zbik
21. • Sergio Mora
22. • Lukas Konecny
22. • David Lemieux
23. • Jermain Taylor
24. • Fernando Guerrero
25. • Danny Jacobs
154 Division: Both these guys are willing to fight him at 160
1. • Erislandy Lara
2. • Carlos Molina
168 Division: Both these guys were willing to fight him; the main reason why they didn't fight GGG is because Golovkin tried to drain them at a catchweight.
1. • Edwin Rodriguez
2. • Thomas Oosthuizen
For the sake of advancing the conversation I'll pretend you have a point and ask you why he didn't fight any of the guys who you don't have bolded and your explanation for GGG trying to weight drain Rodriguez and Oosthuizen when he said he'd fight anyone at 168.THe bold have ducked him or had promoters basically say they wouldnt have their fighters fight golovkin. Soloiman is facing the drug thing and probably a Gaele fight. Murray is fighting next month, He just fought proksa and vera was rejected by HBO for jan. You list names like he can fight ANY guy but wont discuss the context behind them, typical
here:
Lara is fighting angulo, Molina is fighting Smith

The anti-Golovkin stuff in this corner of the internet is truly bizarre.
Pretty much the entire boxing world acknowledges how avoided this guy is, and then you have a handful of flat-earthers on here who, for reasons known only to themselves, are desperately trying to cling onto the belief that this isn't true.
You almost have to feel sorry for them.Comment

I don't hate Golovkin, I actually consider him a very entertaining fighter. It's actually his overzealous fans I can't stand and their insistence on having us believe every single fighter in the division has been ducking the guy for ages when he really didn't come into the scene until the Proksa fight (same time Martinez fought Chavez and Geale fought Sturm) in Sept.The anti-Golovkin stuff in this corner of the internet is truly bizarre.

I think it's guys who feel their favourite fighters are threatened by golovkin and don't want to admit them ducking him. Look at that banana matey with the sig vid of martinez beating on bum chavez jr for instance.The anti-Golovkin stuff in this corner of the internet is truly bizarre.

Once you go further up that list, Its a worse matchup and they are more unknown meaning HBO wouldnt accept it. THe reason he didnt fight them on sat is because he fought off tv, in monaco for low money, can we please stop pretending like those fighters will take that fight? Most of the guys wont take an HBO career payday fight but theyll take that?Comment

In your sig you can really see how square Canelo's head is!Comment

He didnt come into the scene until then because he was being fcuked over by universum to protect their star, Sturm. When he came into the scene, he wants top fighter, but the top 13 have said noI don't hate Golovkin, I actually consider him a very entertaining fighter.

Doubt Golovkin got paid crap in Monoco. The super 4 thing is supposed to a million dollar tournament, and that's was only the undercard.Once you go further up that list, Its a worse matchup and they are more unknown meaning HBO wouldnt accept it.
