      Fans wanting Mayweather-Pacquiao didn't help that fight get made.

      Fans wanting Kovalev-Stevenson didn't help that fight get made.

      Fans wanting Chavez-Golovkin didn't help that fight get made.
      That's irrelevant. Why are YOU okay with an entire division freezing Golovkin out? Why are YOU blaming Golovkin for it?

      And the fans allowed Mayweather/Pacquiao to not get made when millions of them paid for their fights against other people and made them millions.

They should sympathize more with Golovkin's plight than anyone.
        spot on bro, the Rigo fans were crowning him as the greatest even before he'd beaten anyone legit at super bantam but rigo proved how good he is against Donaire.

        GGG has a possible opportunity at proving himself against Geale and possibly Chavez/Martinez/Sturm at some point later this year or next.

          Sure these fights were in talks of happening, but all of them fell through, whether because of different promotions or one or both fighters wanting more money.
          Are you serious? I'd say that almost all top fights gets made because of demand from fans. It's a business dude. What about Froch-Groves II?

            There is no video, just a text report.

            Al Haymon had a hand in all three.

              Why are fans not demanding GGG vs Quillin?

                How many times does Quillin and Golden Boy have to say no before we get the idea?

                  So why is there no similar thread for Quillin? He gets a pass from this TS and GGG don't?

                      What do you think calling Quillin a ducker is all about, fans have been calling for the fight for some time now.

                      Haymon says no, so poor Peter is left trying to explain it.
