Floyd: People will always create an opponent for me. Critics won't stop.

[illmaticfighter]

"Desperate" has nothing to do with it. This is a combat sport. Real fans demand that the best fight the best. That's why you don't see Golovkin fans making excuses as to why he should or shouldn't fight anybody. Hell, he said he'd go to 175 to fight Hopkins, FFS.

a fight he can win and won't take a lot of punishment, did he say he'd fight adonis stevenson chad dawson no because that would be to much to soon?

i see golovkin own people saying he's not ready for ward if he isn't ready ward, why should floyd be ready for a full fledged mw what's next lucas m from chavez jr?

devon alexander vs sergio? kessler vs david haye? nonito versus broner? how about mares vs lamont peterson

You are right-real fans want to see the best fight the best. The problem is that here on NSB almost every fight is evaluated based on legacy or ducking or resume or something other than the fight itself.

What would be the better fight-GGG moving down to 154 for floyd or moving up to 168 for Ward?

According to that thread, it was a CW fight. Nobody countered and said it wasn't ... I didn't remember it being one way or the other.

It was a LW fight-both fighters weighed in at 134 lbs. The next fight floyd went back and defended his SFW title. SO if you weren't sure why are you running with it as fact?

[rambov]

Have to agree with Floyd here. Its constant.

[The Future]

There will always be a next in line, this is boxing.
Does he think fans should stay "your the best, quit fighting"?
There's always a up coming guy.

which "created" fighter has he fought? We can all agree the created fighters he is implying are better then ortiz, guerrero etc etc

Guess fans and reporters are not supposed to want to see the best fighters challenged........sorry my bad.


Mayweather vs Alverez = Great matchup

This sounds like an awful lot of excuse making, to me.

If Golovkin wanted to fight Stevenson or Dawson, I'd fully endorse his right to do so. I'd even favor him to win in both instances. Dawson is a mental weakling with a ton of bad habits and Stevenson is nothing impressive at all, one punch KO of the aforementioned Dawson aside.

As for Ward, HBO are the real ones who aren't ready for that fight yet. Their network is floundering and they're doing a good job of building up the anticipation for that one for when they inevitably have to cash out on it.

Were it not for promotional issues, Mayweather/Golovkin would be a sure fire sell. Certainly a hell of a lot better than the opponets Floyd is going to have to settle on post-Canelo.

Mate I watched that live on HBO, it wasn't a catchweight it was a lightweight fight.

not true golovkin own people said he isn't ready for ward.

so he's not ready for a fight against the number 2 or one fighter in the world at a higher weight,but of course he's ready for the number 1 fighter at a smaller weight.

Do you have a link? I don't remember his team saying that

That thread made it sound as if it was a fact. No Floyd fans countered ..... then 99.999% of the times it's because it's the truth.
