GGG vs. Kirkland

[midnight_magic]

This is a good fight. Not sure why so many people are complaining. Kirkland is a big jmw, GGG is a small mw. The size isn't an issue here. Kirkland is chinny but when he gets going he's hard to stop.

Good fight imo. I'd rather have this than Geale/GGG

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.



ame 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.

i don't care about that...........take on fighters around your weight class or a little higher. (168) if no one wants to fight you....or if you truly want to fight jr. middleweights just move down to 154 (team ggg already said they would make the move down) but fighting blown up jr. middleweights at middleweight is pathetic.........golovkin at this point shouldn't even be in the discussion for a blown up jr. middleweight like Kirkland

It's a good fight, and a good name on GGG resume. Kirkland is a come forward fighter, and that suits GGG perfectly.

isn't 154 around 160???

if ggg can make 154 isn't he a blown up jr. middleweight too???

you'd prefer him fight a bigger but lesser opponent???

makes no sense. kirkland is the best guy willing to fight him.

This is the best fight out there for GGG. I think Kirkland has a good chance at the upset as well. Kirkland is like a more powerful version of ouma and we know how well ouma did against GGG. GGG can't fight backing up and kirkland is strong as hell. Robert garcia who sparred with both GGG and kirkland says kirkland was stronger and said it would be a toss up if they both fight.

I'm kinda not interested in this. The move up might do Kirk some good, but the fight might not even last two rounds.

I love to see this fight at 157 lbs catchweight.

That would be a good fight too. Not sure if Stevenson would take it, but I'd watch
