Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Promoter Discusses Potential Mayweather Bout

[chepe009]

How do you know GGG wouldn't guarantee him good money? He gets high ratings on HBO is in high demand, and a fight with Mayweather would definitely sell. It's not like asking him to fight Lara. That that is understandable as Lara brings nothing to the table, but GGG would make him lots of money.

So again your argument is ******. Again how convenient that for the sake of claiming to be TBE he's a 5 division champion and holds 154 belts, but when it comes to GGG he's a 147 small guy.

Dude, I'm a HUGE GGG fan, but he got 800k views vs geale on HBO. In comparison, garcia also got 800k views to fight a salka on Showtime who have 2/3 the subscribers HBO does. So no, you're argument is ******. GGG doesn't even get 1 mil views on network tv, what makes you think he'll get it in PPV? He's just not popular enough and not worth the risk. Cotto, DLH and canelo deft were.

I've called out Pac on this many times. Part of the reason I'm in the red here.

But at least Pac accepts his mistakes, corrects them. He's now using OST testing while Mayweather still running scared, using every excuse not to make the fights fans want to see.

Pacquiao has Marquez problems, he needs to get rid of Arum, he just wants a paycheck.........

He's gotten so good at it he's even convince he's moronic fan base to make the excuses for him. A fight with GGG would be huge and everyone with a brain knows this, but of course his fan base is the only one that doesn't see this.

all of those things are true.......it's no secret. cotto figured it out....how come pacquiao hasn't. instead pacquiao with his little pea brain self, resigned to TR(aka the death valley of WW's) and thinks he'll get a floyd fight. GGG has done nothing to at least put him self in the position to get a floyd fight. all i see his team doing is blow smoke just to make a name for himself......he knows damn well floyd is signed to an exclusive deal with showtime and he is sign with hbo. showtime and hbo have only worked together one time and that was for tyson-lewis......do you think they are actually gonna work together for the likes of triple ***** G? a guy who's resume is littered with cab drivers and plumbers? a guy who has never been on ppv and can't even draw more views than andre ward who is arguably one of the most boring fighters in the sport? please stop overrating GGG marketability because he is NOT a star yet.

He's asked the question, his answer makes news because it's Mayweather.

It's good (unintentional) promotion for Golovkin and it gives everyone a chance to laugh at Mayweather so don't knock it.

What's funnier? Floyd not wanting to fight a middleweight. Or, GGG being willing to fight everybody from 47-68 but Ward?

BTW, You will need to remove Triple B1tch's d1ck from your funny talking mouth to answer the question:*******:

[Bigg Rigg]

Jesus Christ, at what point are you getting lost? Let me know so I can guide you.

Floyd is a WW, that is his weight, the weight class he comfortably fights at.

If big money is on the table however, Oscar, Canelo, Cotto, will he move up and fight there like he has 3 times in the last 7 years. A weight that he's obviously small for but again, for big money, he will go there.

No one fits into that catergory of big money at the moment, so, he will fight at his weight class, which is, 147.

Which part of this bit by bit breakdown do you not understand?

You're a clown bro. He's a 3x jr mw champion, since you don't want him to fight GGG at jr mw, you're going life and death with me about how Floyd is a ww. So you would rather see him fight a guy like Khan at ww than defen his titles at 154 vs GGG??? Great!!!

[Bigg Rigg]

I don't even wanna see Floyd fight GGG anyway, he's just gonna fight like a lil b1tch anyway the way he did in the Maidana rematch. Running and holding all damn night.

Alexander's resume ****s all over GGG's,does it mean it's a bigger fight for Floyd to fight him compared to GGG??? Why ya Floyd fans act so scared?? And why does GGG need to beat Cotto to get Floyd??? Why can't Floyd just defend his belts against GGG spank him??

nobody is scared of ggg......ya'll just overrate him. and yes i do rank alexander higher than GGG just off of his resume. what has GGG done to put himself in the position to fight floyd?

is he signed to showtime? no
has he faced any legit opposition? no
has he campaigned at 154? no
is he a star? no
does he bring any money that's worth the risk? no

so again how is it that floyd is ducking him when he is not even in the position to BE ducked????

No I would rather Floyd-Golovkin (If Golovkin can make the weight healthily)

But I understand that that won't happen because Floyd is a WW who only fights north of there for big money and Golovkin isn't.

This discussion has absolutely nothing to do with what I would rather happen.

This discussion began because you said Floyd isn't a WW despite the fact it takes a grain of sense to see that he is.

To which you talk about his fights at Jr MW because in your mind that combats that, to which then I'm trying to explain to you that he only fights above his weight (WW) for the reason being stated.

Clearly, even after a step by step breakdown, you cannot comprehend that.

oh we know you're gonna ***** about something......even if floyd didn't hold you'd ***** because thats what you do best.

[ThrowbackBoxing]

Mayweather is the 154 lb champ, GGG can make 154, why not fight? Truthfully though ther are good options at WW (Pacman, Thurman, Brook, Bradley, Kahn kinda) anyone would be ok. But please quit talking about how small Floyd is. Sugar Ray went str8 to MW & fought Hagler, 205 lb. Holyfield fought 235 lb.Bowe toe-to-toe. This is common...

[JJRod]

Why does Floyd care who Manny Pacquiao gives his money to? Why is the promoter a problem only for Pacquiao? There was no problem with having Oscar as Canelo's promoter even though DLH has said just as many negative things about Floyd as Arum has.

Why is it that Pacquiao has Marquez problems, but Maidana didn't have Alexander problems?

Again, Mayweather has gotten so good with his excuses, he doesn't even need to make them anymore. His dumb a$$ fans do it for him.
