Comments Thread For: Golovkin Targeting Sergio Martinez-Miguel Cotto Winner

Yes the way his fans make him out to be this unstoppable beast yes I do expect him to move up and fight the best 168 in the world. It should be a cake walk right? And if he beat Ward he would become not only a top 5 pound for pound he would be come a star. Don't you think that would be worth the risk?

Ah...so you're annoyed with the hyperbole of a few excessive fans (and yes, all fighters have their extremist fans) and allowing that to make you talk like a fool. Are you new to boxing forums?

The "Future" will be next for the winner. GGG will then see whats it feels like to be ignored just because your not as popular.

I'm not quite sure I understand your point - if you are saying that you think JCC jr will win, I agree it'll be a tough fight.

With regards to GGGs popularity however, whatever you think of his fans, the poor f#kker knows all about being ignored - nearly 8 years into his career and he 's only managed to get any recognition in the last 18 months.

I get it though - you're another one who gets annoyed by excessive hyperbole when it's not about your favourite fighter.

So let me ask you why isn't GGG fighting some of the top 10 middleweights. Oh because a Chavez fight will get him paid. I doubt you work ass for 40hrs and when paid day comes you give back the check and say that you don't want to get paid because you want to be the best at your job. Think about it. Prize fight is the name of the game.

No you jacka$$, cause all top 10 mw passed on multiple offers to fight him. However after Chavez his profile grows so much the risk-reward calculation may change for these guys

don't you people realize martinez has a two fight deal with hbo.

cotto is one of those fights and martinez still has one fight left on his contract. maybe you all forgot but mayweather is with haymon and has a contract with showtime and canelo with gbp and therefore on showtime


martinez can't leave hbo to fight on showtime so those two fights aren't going to happen. the only fight hbo would approve for martinez is ggg


if ggg beats chavez jr he becomes a ppv option and martinez vs ggg becomes a ppv fight. martinez will fight ggg win or lose against cotto. it's his only option.



and for people saying cotto would fight ggg next must be smoking that rock. yeah cotto would turn down a fight with canelo for ggg. on what planet?

Yeah but this is boxing, promoters and managers find all sorts of ways to break out of their contracts, they're a bunch of snakes. Don't be shocked if Martinez (provided he beats Cotto) ends up fighting Canelo on Showtime without facing GGG.

GGG is "not ready" for Ward and his promoter thinks it would be "unfair"



But we'll fight Chavez Jr at 168 doe!

"It's unfair to ask GGG to move up until he's on par with Andre" meaning until he has established himself as a top P4P fighter by cleaning out his division. The Chavez Jr fight is a temporary move up. It's not logical to fight the champ at 168 before you get the chance to fight the champ at 160.

Yep and it's not logical to turn down a fight with Miguel Cotto to fight Gennady Golovkin.
