Comments Thread For: Golovkin a Hit in The Ring, But Moves Backwards In Ratings

no, you just came off as more of a GGG diehard than a boxing fan with that, which is fine. no offense.

I've been on this site since 2007 with over 30,000 posts regarding hundreds of fighters. And I'm just a GGG diehard not a fan of the sport

I always want clarity in divisions. Unifications, a legit lineal champ. This is what hardcore fans want, no?

[_original_]

Time for GGG to finally fight a credible opponent.

people just dont want to see GGG fighting bums anymore.

Geale isn't a bum. He is rated as one of the 5 best middleweights in the world by everyone. GGG has already knocked out half a dozen top 10 world rated middleweights but after he KOs them they are dropped from the top ten. GGG has the whole middleweight division afraid to fight him including "lineal" champs Martinez and Cotto. He is the best middleweight in the world and the true world middleweight champion.

The problem is the competition. Geale isn't a bad fighter but he's absolutely not 1 that ppl need to know. And that goes for everyone gokovkin has fought. And that will be the case if golovkin fights Soliman next too. This is exactly why Andre ward absolutely should be considered as an opponent

Boxing already has stars, such as Mayweather, Pacman, Canelo and the guy (Cotto) you give no chance of beating your idle. So boxing has it's proving stars let your boy pay his dues like everyone else.

Didn't Provodnikov/Algieri do over a million views?

almost anybody averages millions views on HBO these days.

Like I said the biggest fights in boxing are interracial fights.

Look at Floyd, look at Manny - these will generate more fighting somebody that is not black or Asian - Mosley was an exception.

I don't know if that model can be sustained. I think GGG needs to take a page from Kovalev and go to England for short money and fight Carl Froch.

Most def. Fight somebody already. The knocking out TOMATO CANs shtick has gotten old...

[Godsfly]

Let me guess...it's Geale's fault somehow.

[Nay_Sayer]

I'm still trying to figure out how Ward doesn't make financial sense

How?

After Ward beats the brakes off of Golovkin, making it look easy in the process, nobody will want to see Golovkin on HBO again...

He better hope he can get the cotto fight
