@boxingscene I never said that and even less if we know that he is out because a disgrace. Someone misinformed you.

@maravillabox This interview was videotaped, and tape recorded by the writer, unless your translator got it wrong.

I dont understand this - why cant GGG try to fight the best guys at 160 before moving up? who deserves a fight wit Martinez next more than GGG - please answer that for me

Why should He....DUMBO, Who Brings More $$$, than Jr.???

[A-Wolf]

Agreed. I like Golovkin and many fans/experts in boxing are high on him. He looks like a skilled destroyer. But guess what, many top fighters look like that when fighting a particular level of competition.

It's not until they step up vs other top fighters with experience under the big lights and big fights that we find out who they REALLY are.

Martinez has been there with the guys he's fought at their respective points in their careers. Golovkin hasn't just yet. But he looks good so far vs his competition.

Well stated.

GGG claims he is the best from 154-168...he said that himself. Sure GGG deserves his shot. Martinez also deserves his shot at a big money fight after all his years of service, especially since he has been out of the ring for over a year. He'll come calling GGG after he fights Cotto, he already said that was his plan.

Did Golovkin say he was the best from 154-168? I thought he just said he'd fight anybody in that weight range. Martinez does deserve a tuneup/money fight. Hopefully afterwards he fights Golovkin.

people act like Golovkin is known

Golovkin is almost unknown in the spanish speaking world and if you noticed this interview is from Notifight.com which is in SPANISH!



so what Martinez said was exactly true to the audience he was speaking to.

[-Kev-]

He doesn't get credit for hypothetical wins. His resume still is what it is and he hasn't proved **** yet.

A poster named PBP feels that GGG belongs in the top 10 P4P list because of how good he is hypothetically. ESPN put GGG at #8 and I disagreed, PBP says he belongs there.

Imagine that, hypothetical wins get you in the top 10 P4P. Forget Carl Froch, Danny Garcia, Canelo Alvarez, etc. who all have better wins. Even Wlad was put below GGG. They hype turned into a joke basically.

Here's the video.


Translator tell him HBO wants to push a fight with Golovkin and asks him why it hasn't happened yet. Martinez says "Probably because Golovkin has to continue gaining territory to arrive at a position where we find ourselves, for example today [referring to the big press conference with Cotto] In a position where for example Miguel Cotto and Mayweather find themselves."

Didn't know Golovkin was Spanish, thanks for clearing things up.

what does this even mean? was Darren barker and Martin Murray on his level? its not like GGG is demanding purse split 50/50 - thei makes no sense. And anyone that sayd GGG ducked Ward is crazy. He hasnt even fought at 168. you can't duck a fighter that's not even in your weightclass. If GGG has a few fights at 168 and wont fight Ward - that's a duck

The G'Man will Fight Ward For Big $$$, for Both,
When GGG Dispatches Jr. .....

at the moment Ward Dosen't Bring The Bread!!!
