    I like Kirkland, he comes to fight. I think Golovkin could stop him early though.

      Hershman actually mentioned Kirkland for Golovkin

      Golovkin will fight in Monaco off HBO on Feb. 1, but he is due back on HBO in April, when his opponent could be Kirkland or Geale, Hershman said.

        With that said GGG wouldn't get any credit for Kirkland even if it's a fun matchup. Hopefully Murray man's up.
        Doubt they fight.....
        As for this fight.... Everybody will **** on it. I'm not to keen on it, but it'd rumored for april

          ishida started his career at 154 and has most of his fights at 154. thats a blown up jr. middleweight in my eyes..........(hints the term: blown up jr. middleweight)

          and i don't care where rosado stayed at. he was a blown up jr. middleweight when he fought golovkin (still is) i just named you 7 guys that golovkin fought who were ether full fledged jr. middleweights moving upward for the first time or blown up jr. middleweights............

          there should be no patience whats so ever if golovkin decides to seek out another blown up jr. middleweight (after fighting 7 already) it's pathetic.

            You named Nunez twice and Tapia... Tapia hasnt even fought GGG yet.

            I see where you are going, just trying to get the facts straight. 5 is still a lot.

              This fight would suck. It's not interesting, it wouldn't be exciting, it would be a 1 round massacre that left Kirkland unconscious.

                and by the way......ouma did not fight at 160 through out his career. 154, yes. but not 160 (the guy fought taylor and joey at 160) only 2 fights at 160 before fighting golovkin which was his 3rd fight at 160...............


                golovkin as of now have made a career of fighting jr. middleweights. why add another one? (kirkland)

                  i actually wasn't counting. i was just naming people that i knew he had fought who come up to meet him.......but to be specific

                  ishida, Ouma. Nunez, Rosado, Tapia (with kirland that would make 6)

                  6 7 jr. middleweights is ridiculous

                  and yes he fought Nilson Julio Tapia who came up in weight from 154 to meet him.........

                      Then you need your eyes checked. Ishida is 6'2, fought at Middleweight 11 times, three of which consecutively prior to GGG. That's called a MW.

                      and i don't care where rosado stayed at. he was a blown up jr. middleweight when he fought golovkin (still is) i just named you 7 guys that golovkin fought who were ether full fledged jr. middleweights moving upward for the first time or blown up jr. middleweights............

                      there should be no patience whats so ever if golovkin decides to seek out another blown up jr. middleweight (after fighting 7 already) it's pathetic.
                      Name a middleweight Golovkin should have fought?

                      Geale? Was stripped for not fighting GGG.
                      Sturm? Ducked his mandatory for two years.
                      Quillin? Showtime.
                      Murray? Turned him down.
                      Martinez? Turned him down.
                      Ndam? Didn't even show to a purse bid three different times.
                      Barker? Turned him down.

                      GGG can only take what he can get. Unfortunately you can't force the other MWs to fight him cuz this is boxing the only sport where ducking opponents is rewarded.
