      How can anyone hate on Rubio? the guy will fight anyone and brought the challenge to GGG- this is going to be a good fight, it is not a gimmie for GGG, yes he is the favorite, but in boxing anyone wit self belief is a threat..

        I give it a just short of two weeks before Rubio pulls the "I won't go out like Macklin or Geale" line.

          You mean like Daniel "I don't believe Golovkin's reputation, I have no doubt I'll win, I won't go out like Macklin" Geale?

          Golovkin's going to destroy Rubio. Not hating, just telling it like it is.

            At least somebody is stepping up to the plate. GGG can't force the 'top guys' in his division to fight him. Even if he went to 168 nobody active and worthy has shown any desire to fight him.

              The only thing Rubio will embrace is...

              Ice bucket with water after he gets ko'd by Glovkin

                  What else is GGG gonna do now that Soliman has bailed? He might as well let Soliman have his moment in the sun and take his belt in 6 months.

                  froch should be next if his online poll is anything to go by.

                  After that I reckon Canelo will step up and fight GGG next year. Cotto won't, especially with Catchweight Roach around.

                  No idea what Quillen is doing, he's probably gonna have a rematch with Rosado.

                  Andre Ward should be moving up for Stevenson or the Bhop / Kov winner, or at least doing something.

                    Just can't see Rubio doing enough to keep GGG off him but give him credit for taking this fight........more exciting than cotto vs lee in my opinion

                      How many BIG punchers has GGG faced? Yes, he is tough, but there's no reason to stray away from the challenge if you can fight. Media has created a monster that we still haven't seen.
