SMH...Sergio looks to have a fight lined up for June. It'll be the first time he has set foot in a boxing ring for a fight in over a year and coming off of a surgery...I understand that Golovkin and his people wanted Sergio given those circumstances and seem to be pushing hard for it even more so now that Sergio is seemingly tied up. Let's see how the story changes if Sergio looks dominant in his return against Cotto. Sergio has said himself, that he wants Golovkin before the end of the year so your boy will get his chance, no excuses when Sergio comes calling either.

Personally I'd be happy if he fought Geale or Murray. Atleast those guys would present some obstacles. We know Andy Lee is getting put down and out. Murray gave Sergio all he could handle and Geale has a tricky style. Andy Lee is unacceptable IMO. He's not a step up from Stevens or Rosado IMO. Lets see Golovkin step it up a bit against a good solid MW that has a chance to hold up over the 12 rounds.GGG is on another level with his power only trolls disagree. My point is for those who say its a trash fite as its not considering GGG's opposition which is not his fault as cant fite good opponents.
Andy Lee was a good amateur and has solid skills and is wat u call a good fiter. He has range and it'll be good to see how Golovkin overcomes that. GGG fans should actually be happy with this i mean Felix Sturm and Quillin aint fiting him and Martinez is busy so who else?Comment

I'm curious too. Because GGG has had his trinket basically the same amount of time Serg has been the champ. WTF was GGG in 2010-2011??? Seems funny now that Serg been looking like **** he's getting called out.SMH...Sergio looks to have a fight lined up for June.

GGG was calling out Sturm since 09 - they had the same promoter however who didn't want the fight to happen (hence Golovkin jumping ship to K2) - he was Geales mandatory too but Geale prefered the higher money lower risk Mundine fight - FWIW Geale also turned down Monte Carlo (according to his own manager), Murray has been made several offers too (and also coulda forced the issue as a mandatory)- it ain't like ggg ain't trying to get these guys in the ring.
FWIW Andy Lee is probably roughly of a level with Macklin, Murray and the now sadly retired Barker - Murrays profile was significantly raised by the Maravilla fight and Macklins took a hit from fighting GGG but really they ain't far apart and neither is Andy Lee.
The tone of your comment suggests you're implying that Golovkin has somehow been deliberately kept from the big fights for his own protection which simply doesn't fit in with the known facts.
I fully agree that Geale, Sturm or possibly Murray should be the targets with Maravilla unavailable, but it's looking most likely that Sturm and Murray would prefer to rematch than fight GGG - hopefully the Geale negotiations are still ongoing however.Comment

At that time he had a dispute with his former promoter and was barred from fighting in Germany or the US. That's why he fought Ouma in Panama for example. But his 1st scheduled HBO date was vs Pirog, who Martinez also had little interest in facingComment

lol do you not like Andy Lee then?
Isn't he fighting 4 times? he was originally slated to fight 5 times last year.
Link?
Anyway, it looks like Lee, Soliman, Kirkland and possibly Geale are the options for Golovkin's next fight. Those options aren't bad at all.
Remember Sturm, Quillin, Martinez and Murray are not available.Comment

Guys are you crazy?
Lee said himself that he sees weaknesses in Golovkin. He believes that he have chances. 184cm fighter with amateur experience, has been looking at Golovkin style for long time now. and angry after his loss. What is betterComment
