    Wait, this is the same Lara that was on the floor against Angulo and DREW against Vanes?





    Let me guess...... The caveman Angulo is a better fighter then Golovkin as well, right?

      It's not the same thing anyway, as Golovkin is prepared to move down.



      To see Golovkin fight but if it was on at 3am I probably wouldn't have bothered.
      I wasn't talking about the number of times you mentioned it, I was poitning out how you felt it was a toss up, something you didn't deny. As such, I would think a Lara GGG fight would appeal to you as much as floyd ggg fight would.

      It's not exactly the same but Lara is an opponent that would bring a similiar skill set into the ring with GGG. Granted, GGG wouldn't make anywhere near as much money, which is the real reason he wont go to 154 for this fight but his fanbase that posts regularly on NSB would never admit this.

      I also saw what you wrote about Andy Lee. You know that his ranking as a top 10 MW has more to do with his promoter affiliation and less to do with his actual wins and losses.

        Ahhh yes, now we're gonna **** On Angulo.. A guy who blasted Rosado in two rounds while GGG had him go up in weight and still took longer to have the fight stopped..

        Triangle theories.. but hey, let's hail the king for having such formidable opponents like Adama, Stevens(who got defeated by Jesse Brinkley).. and Rosado. Jesse Brinkley though.. I'd never put him ahead of Angulo in my rankings

          Golovkin is quickly becoming the third biggest "star" in the sport and similar to Manny and Floyd...... his fights are going to be HUGE due to the fact that at least 65% of people tuning in will be haters who want to see him lose. I can see it right now, a good portion of NSB users are salivating at the mouth at a potential GGG loss/exposure and they're going to keep Golovkin talked about until the day he potentially retires undefeated and as an ATG

          (His MW titlist KO% record is unreal!)

            I don't even care who Golovkin has fought, you can say what you want but from here on out whoever he fights is going to be dismissed as soon as Golovkin KO's him. People called for Macklin, he lost, and after he was a bum/C level fighter. People are calling for Geale, and ALREADY since that fight is close to becoming a reality the same people are calling him a bum.

            I'm not worried about it, Golovkin is just going to keep doing his business in the ring and you're going to keep tuning in

                    I don't think posters care if GGG wins or loses. They care that he hasn't lived up to the marketing/promotion of HBO. He simply will not fight anyone from 154-168 and he isn't the most feared guy in the world.

                    Its clear GGG will take any big money fight or any opponent he can KO at 160. Cool. But when the other guys at 160 do the same thing don't get mad.

                    He wants floyd, wont fight Lara, wont fight Ward, but will jump at Lee and is looking for James Kirkland moving up from 154.

                    GGG's fans would never laud another fighter with his resume, even if they had KO's just like GGG.

                      real talk. green k...

                      ggg would only be an underdog to the top 2 p4p fighters in the world.

                      shows what a beast he is.

                      ggg is a warrior and would fight anybody.

                      but his promoters are doing the wrong thing.

                      fighting the lee's and adamas of the world means:

                      - he is not gonna improve as much
                      - he isnt taking advantage his physical prime to make maximum money and build best possible legacy

                      ggg looked bored vs adama. it looked like he was told to give people their moneys worth and not to try knock adama out early.

                      gaele and martin murray are ducking ggg and are massive jokes.
