      Will you clowns just stop posting completely? Just seeing your names makes my stomach churn.
      I gave my opinion and explained why I think the way I do. If you want to argue with that logic then do so and point out how I'm wrong, but don't resort to childish name calling just because someone has an opposing viewpoint.

        He retired because he wanted to, he retired on his terms to go become a politician. That's fine. You're quite ignorant if you think injuries weren't a factor too. Every fighter should be afforded the right to do that. Even though he promised the world to KO Haye and then didn't fulfil that promise. It's ok.

        But for you, it's ok for Vitali to retire on his terms but guys like Sergio and Lennox have to keep fighting for your pleasure. These guys owe you nothing. You're just a dweeb on a message board with his head up his own arse.
        Ok so how else are we to take this?

        If Sergio retires its because he's too old to compete due to injury and age.
        Vitali is retiring because there's nobody who everyone thinks could definitely beat him aside from his brother who he would never fight.
        That cannot be said about Martinez.

        The fact of the matter is that you see it the way you want to spin it in a negative way because you're upset your boy Lennox got patted down by Vitali at 'the peak of his powers'.

        AS far as being a dweeb behind a keyboard you're really one to talk averaging 50 posts a day trolling certain fighters and subjects.

        Why not try going into threads in a positive fashin rather than looking to start **** with everyone?

        A trolling homer is all you are

          Erislandy Lara : GGG has no interest in fighting him because he's looking forward to step up at 168

          Carl Froch : I honestly think GGG would smash Froch to bits. Froch has to fight Groves first.

          Chavez : #2 at 168, very dangerous fighter. I believe it's the best step up option GGG has before fighting Ward.

          Sergio Martinez has to gith Cotto first.

            Like I said, if you think age and injuries had nothing to do with Vitali's retirement then you're a bit of an idiot but that's long been established. And there are plenty of people who wanted to see him fight David Haye.

            Vitali himself knew Haye was a threat. His quote after the Chisora fight was "If Chisora was a little faster, I would be in trouble". Haye is much faster and hits with power. So maybe YOU don't think he was a threat but many people did and even Vitali did. Your head is so far up your own arse that you think your opinion is fact though.

            It's not like Vitali had some ATG resume where he beat everyone - his brother has a much better resume and there are plenty of young guys that Vitali could have fought but he chose to retire. I have no qualms with that even though he broke his promise to the world. He is a politician after all.

              He wants to stay at middleweight for the chance to fight the Martinez/Cotto winner, who would be the official #1 guy in his weightclass. That's why he's just moving up for one fight, no title on the line.

              Martinez has one fight left on his HBO contract after Cotto. If he wins, HBO will pressure him to fight GGG (if he beats Chavez). GGG would be dumb to move up permanently now.

              As far as Lara, I like him but he went life and death with Angulo, GGG would probably knock him out, and would get no credit for it.

                Golovkin can't be taking the shots he took against Stevens and Adama against Froch or he will get stopped.

                It'll be interesting to see if Golovkin's power carries up v Chavez.

                  Don't worry, Golovkin is a very smart fighter he wont open up against Froch. Groves is, stylistically, a bigger probleme to solve for GGG than Froch.

                    Isnt that what boxingscene hates Floyd for??

                    Lets hear the excuses
                    Triple G had no obligation to fight either or those guys. It is not a duck unless is your mandatory or you are in a collision course.

                    Triple G vs Jr won't be a bad match up and it ****es interest

                      Crazy body puncher means he gets a lot of KO's or breaks guys down and stops them from accumulative body shots which is not true. He is an okay body puncher but he is not described as a puncher. 2 KO's in 10 fights is not a puncher, no matter how someone spins it.
