Comments Thread For: Arum: Chavez Jr. Presented With Golovkin Deal For 7/12

[Jsmooth9876]

Cherry picking Gaylovkin taking the path to least resistence,why am i not surprised that none of Gaylovkin fans are calling him out on his cherrypicking?

??? He called out Floyd for a fight at 154... The sound of crickets was heard on the other end....

It's a decent fight. But unlike most I'm not too keen on ppv. I don't like them, don't buy them and don't really support them.

[Pain~Lucy]

win or lose, this is a bad-ass match up!

[The Smash]

"Sugar" Cesar Chavez is the baddest man on the planet. Golovkin has the sport shook, so what does do Chavez do?

He calls him out for a PPV showdown.

Take note, Martinez.

[Hougigo]

Perez/Jennings might be on it

Sorry ward

GGG needs a tuneup at 168. Chavez Jr. is the perfect opponent and actually a cruiserweight. It would be impressive if Golovkin knocks him out. Otherwise it would be nice to see Golovkin going the distance against a much bigger opponent.

I like how GGG is like Martinez, somehow getting stronger and faster in his 30s. Yea, right SOMEHOW.

Yea, GGG did want to fight Floyd, Floyd would be a much much smaller opponent, and the worst would be that Floyd pot shots him all night, and he loses an unembrassing decision.

But, its also true GGG continues to duck Ward! For sure. This cannot be disputed. GGG is a G, but he'd probably comprehensively lose every single round to Ward.

Chavez fight will be interesting due to the size disparity.

GGG by decision dont think he can crack jrs chin, maybe a bodyshot ko.

[mobstarik]

Make it happen! Chavez plz don't duck GGG on this fight!
It brings great opportunities to GGG, because:
1) its a PPV
2) its a good test in 168 before facing Ward

[JJRod]

If this fight is made at 168, Jr. will probably enter the ring at around 185. Golovkin isnt that big a middleweight in the first place - so there should be a considerable size difference. Still, I think GGG will pull it off... and I hope a fight with Ward will be next.

Funny how ring weight only becomes an issue when Chavez Jr is fighting.

Last week Danny Garcia rehydrated from 139 to 155.
When Pacquiao fought at 130, he'd consistently come in at 144+
Cotto at 140 would come in at 155+
Mosley at 147 would come in at 160+
Both Canelo and Trout for their 154 bout came in at 170+

But it's only Chavez that gets talked about.
