You care to bet on that happening?

I bet all my points on it at the time of the fight sig it my friend I have absolute trust in GGG. When that fight happens contact me via pm and we can sort it out.

Personally, I think GGG has reached a level of dominance against the level of opponents he's been fighting combined with hype that its time for a defining/statement fight. And I don't think that's gonna happen any time soon at the middleweight division or lower. Sergio is ready to cash out and GGG is probably is last choice. So GGG is probably pissing in the wind trying to chase that fight down.

high risk low reward true words dude. it makes sense to cash out at mtz's age and ggg isn't a large draw yet

GGG's boxing ability + power + ability to close the ring is all wrong floyd. Just like margarito GGG would make floyd fight for 12 and not just stand there like P4P Guerrero. So all wrong for him.

So he does all this while weight drained at 154? Hmm, ok.

Ah but you see this is like a Floyd Vs Baldomir situation. What's the usual answer: "Floyd fought the real Welterweight Champion for the WBC Title in Baldomir". It doesn't matter what anyone think of Baldo as a fighter right?

As long as Martinez holds the true Middleweight Title and the WBC belt at that, it's a good and key win for GGG to have. And then on to the next one, since beating Martinez won't be his retirement fight.

IMO anyone that criticizes Baldomir as a legit win for Floyd is lame. Likewise, anyone that criticizes Martinez as an opponent for Floyd, GGG, or any other opponent is lame. If a guy is the legitimate champion in the division, there's no way to logically discredit them as an opponent.

Cro, GGG said shortly after the Macklin fight that he could easily make 154 for a Floyd fight.

Continuing to hear significant resistance from Curtis Stevens team to making a GGG fight in November.

Yup. Stevens either wants the fight or at least wants the hype. Kathy Duva so far has outright refused to negotiate the fight with K2.

So Stevens is not ducking, but his promotional team is.

all the linear champs for years ducked the #1 guy margarito. are they really legit champs if they refuse to fight someone so dangerous? judah fought cosme rivera, baldomir fought gatti, floyd fought.......retirement.

I'm sure if team golovkin are willing to fight anyone from 168 to 154. I'm sure that means ggg is comfortable making 154. On the other hand the fight won't happen because mayweather would try and drain him. Haha just like zombie man el canelo

[Realizniguhnit]

GGG is already Champion. He doesn't have to go around chasing bums like Stevens, I'd rather see him fight Murray who would have a W against Martinez had their fight been in the USA

All your points that 3G does not "Good Boy" Martinez? If you want to bet all your points.....I just bet that Golovkin doesn't "good boy" MArtinez.
