Comments Thread For: Sergio Martinez: Gennady Golovkin Still Isn't On My Level

He's a belt holder. I don't see how Murray beating Martinez makes GGG the man...lol wut

Well If u really knew anything about boxing then you would know that Murray turned down a fight with GGG months ago.....

Did he? So does that mean that Golovkin beat Murray? No....

Obviously it means that your boy Murray was scared...

Murray is not "my boy", not even a fan. And I only give fighters credit for actual wins, not negotiation table victories.

If he ain't your boy then quit defending him then. Murray beat Sergio, got robbed, then turned around and turned down a winnable fight with GGG. Scared just like Sergio and most of the other MW's out there. Until someone steps up GGG is the #1 MW in the world. He's more active and willing to unify with anyone, he doesn't make excuses about someone not being on his level, thats garbage..

Boxing works like this - to be the man, you've gotta beat the man.

I don't remember Ric Flair ever saying "To be the man, wooooo, you've got to beat a bunch of cab drivers and road sweepers...woooo!"

The man is GGG.

The man is GGG.

What's his best win?

To those saying GGG "needs to step up":

step up against whom? The likes of Murray, Sturm or Geale wouldn't be considered a real step up at this point since he already annihilated Macklin, who is on the same level as those guys. Quillin is fighting on a different network, and so far hasn't been too keen on facing GGG. Lara is a Showtime fighter, too, and as team Martinez would be quick to point out if GGG were to beat him, is a jr. MW.

So that leaves who exactly? Who does GGG have to beat to "earn" the Martinez fight? And don't say Ward or Froch, because both are far better than anyone Sergio has ever beat, and possibly better than Sergio himself even was.

Martinez is never going to fight GGG, Martinez is almost done. I bet Cotto is his last fight. Sanchez doesn't think they'll ever fight either. Because GGG fights on hbo the middleweight division is weak for him. There's Geale and pirog but I wouldn't hold out hope for a pirog fight. He really should just move up and test the waters against an Abraham or Steiglitz or anyone in the top 10 at super middleweight because at least those fights can be made.

First I would like to thank GGG for getting my uncle out of the slums. Incase the fight hasn't been announced yet, let me be the first to do so.... GGG sent my uncle the middle school janitor a 6figure contract to be his next opponent. Thanks GGG!
