Man when will GGG face a live body? His resume sucks for a "number one contender"

Honestly IDK thats not my point
He looks great, but who has he fought....in my eyes he still has a lot to prove?? What he is he gonna do when he is behind on the cards,in a dirty fight, not walking through an opponent, or the other fighter can take his shot...the time will come when he consistently faces top 5 guys
WHat I do know is Sturm is more proven I'd rather see a fight than speculate on it
My point is its put up or move up time for GGG
Im not a part of the majority that thinks everyone is ducking him....His management, politics, etc. play a part to why he hasnt fought many formidible fighters
Mandos
Sturm
Geale
NDNJ
Others
Pirog (injured)
Murray (Visa / Promo issues)
Martinez (injured)
JCC (Promo / Monetary issues)
It's all very well saying he should 'step up' - but certainly within his own division there's a wealth of evidence that he's been attempting to for years. If you mean that he should 'step up' to 168. well ultimately I'd have to agree. but which are the big fights there right now? Both Froch and Jr were under negotiation but fell through for well know reasons, Ward is fighting other battles right now, Kesslers gonna need a while, Groves no for the obvious - so who should he fight at SMW? Bika? Winning a belt at 168 would make any further MW fights irrelevent - better wait for the likely Geale fight and Murray next to certain for Monaco in 2015.Comment

For all the hype GGG is hella unproven at the world class level. He has defeated 2-3 world class guys and he is supposed to be some beast or avoided fighter? Tyson, Hearns, Julian Jackson, etc. all raked up kos and tko wins fighting scrubs, once they fought world class guys regularly the kos were less frequent
kirkland is better off at 154...Quillin and GGG are on the same level, contenders with trinkets
Sturm has the best or 2nd best resume of anyone ranked at 160
Martinez is the man until he loses
There are politics that go in to boxing but if GGG isnt getting the fights he wants at 160 he can move down or up like everyone else
Chavez should fight at 175 or 190 thats a money fight but not very meaningful consdiering cHAVEZ isnt even ranked in any weight classComment

Kinda hard to fight guys when they don't get in the ring. Quillin doesn't want none, Murray has avoided him as has Sturm. Chavez Jr wanted more money, Martinez is looking low risk-high reward. Who should he fight? It's hard for him to get fights.Comment

then he needs to start calling out people and challenge/insult their manhood.Comment
