Comments Thread For: Quillin: Unlike Martinez, I Was Willing To Face Golovkin

[Outwest Exp 355]

Two years ago Quillin wasn't ready for 3G. He didn't have 3Gs amateur back ground and staying away was a smart career move at the time. It ain't two years ago and if he feels he's ready who are we to say he's not?

He was making excuses why he shouldn't fight Golovkin three months ago.

I sure thought he was saying something different a little while ago as well.

What excuses? The civil war isn't an excuse. It's a reason. You can hate him if you want to. It's a free country. I think Quillin is the only threat to 3G because of his counter right hand. But with his tooth pic legs he couldn't take 3Gs punches for the duration. So his only way to win is to end it early.

I guess people are thinking he's just hiding behind this "cold war" now and saying he's ready now because he knows it's not possible.

The excuse he gave wasn't the promotional split. The excuse he gave was the same thing he used to duck Golovkin all along. "There isn't enough money in the fight."

He clearly wasn't willing to fight Golovkin, because he was making excuses when Golovkin was available, even with the network feud to hide behind. So him saying he was willing to fight Golovkin contradicts his own words this year, not 2 years ago or even a year ago. This year, he was saying Golovkin isn't a draw and doesn't make sense and needs to build up more.

He ducked.

He openly declined a fight with GGG. What has this dude been smoking???

I agree top rank and gb should mend fences so the fans can see worthwhile matches.

GGG is not top rank

Its funny he said there isnt enough money in the fight but yet it probably would have been his biggest payday, lol. Anyways I think rosado is gonna pull an upset this saturday!

Peter Quillin has hit back at Gabriel Rosado vowing to knock him out before conquering middleweight marvel Sergio Martinez.

The undefeated WBO middleweight world champion faces the hardened Philadelphian Rosado on the undercard of the Bernard Hopkins-Karo Murat clash this weekend at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City.

Fireworks are expected when the pair enter the ring, with Rosado earlier promising to make an early night of it, something which has not sat too well with the current champion.

"He says the fight is going to a knockout and he's not going to the scorecard. I really, honestly, see that, but I don't believe it's going to be me that's going to be the one that's taking defeat, knocked out," insisted Quillin. [Click Here To Read More]

Quillin is a strong fighter but you can tell from the comment that he's soft. Unlike himself, Rosado was more than just willing to fight 3G
