Matthew Macklin's Hypocrisy

[Scarcaztic]

Some of these 6 months GGG fans are spoiling it for a lot of people who actually like him. They bi*tch and whine like ****ing puzzies.

Fa real. They act like GGG is on Winky Wright/Vernon Forrest/prime Margarito/prime Paul Williams levels of avoidance.

There's guys out there that will school this guy. Lara if he moved up. Sergio. Possibly Trout. Ward would ruin his day. Froch might retire him. Dirrell could possibly beat him. Abraham has a puncher's chance. Kessler could possibly stop him.

He accepted it, and you still bitch in an underhanded way! Let it go, man. You were wrong. He wasn't ducking him. End of story.

He declines the fight 2X, then releases tweets saying how he doesnt want to fight GOlovkin in June yet was chasing fights with Chavez and Gaele during the same time frame. Its completely justified to come to the conclusion that he was avoiding Golovkin, its not hard to to think that. He literally said no to him already and took an easy cheap fight a week later

You do realize Matthew Macklin has accepted the Golovkin fight for June, right?

Yea...I was going to say they're going to fight already

[juandabomb]

stylistically geale would be better for macklin but versus GGG...he'll get stopped in the 9 round

Another person still living in denial! Macklin turns down Chavez, takes the Golovkin fight, and he was still ducking!

If you used to believe he was ducking before, fine. But the mere fact that he accepted it now gives credence to the reasons why he didn't take the fight the last two times, and that they weren't just BS excuses to avoid Golovkin. If he was actually ducking Golovkin all along, he wouldn't be taking this fight at all, ever. He has zero obligation to take this fight right now. It's not like he's Golovkin's mandatory. He didn't have to risk getting another L on his record , yet he did.

Macklin is not Floyd, he fights who his promoter tells him to, he can only pass so many times. The pressure came from above. I'm gonna stop sniping at him as of now, unless it falls through.

When did macklin turn chavez down?

What reason was there to avoid fighting Golovkin in Sept? There is none

If he was actually avoiding Golovkin, he wouldn't be taking this fight at all, ever. Had had zero obligation to take this fight right now. It's not like he's Golovkin's mandatory. He didn't have to risk getting another L on his record , yet he did.

By that logic, we have to wait until a fighter retires to consider it a duck. We dont know but there is a tiny chance that sturm fights GOlovkin sometime, so does that mean he didnt duck him by paying of the WBA? MAcklin had Zero obligation? The guy is a top ranked fighter who has fought 1 round in 15 months. What should he do, purposefully take a scrub and avoid this fight again? What obligation did GOlovkin have to take this fight?

So if he only does what his promoter wants, then it was never his decision to not fight Golovkin. How could he be ducking when he could only do what his promoter wants?

Yeah, and I'm sure it was Lou "Who would give a flying **** about Golovkin?" Dibella who forced Macklin into take it.

Fanboys would alway be fanboys, can't wait for the next GGG to come along, Maybe that new version of GGG would be "Ducked" after only one month, he can then join the list of Adrian Diaconu, D. Pirog and GGG. " Dey ducking doe"

Earlier this week LA 2 Vegas speculated they were setting up GGG with Tommy, since both have HBO dates in june. I correctly predicted Tommy would be on GGG's undercard, on a show copromoted with LDB. What good is a middleweight contender in your stable if you can't put him as headliner on your own show?
