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

[hitking]

The only way GGG-Rigondeaux happens is if Rigo wants it. True story:wank:

[thefnshow66]

Triple G could be the number 3 or 4 PPV draw and Mayweather wouldn't even look his way. Money isn't the issue. It's protecting that "0". If "TBE" won't man up and fight the number 2 PPV draw, who happens to be in the same weight class. How on earth would anyone expect him to fight a monster like Triple G???

[ThrowbackBoxing]

Why do people attack Pacman in a Floyd vs GGG post? This protective obsession of Floyd is crazy....we all know he ain't fighting GGG. If Algeiri pulls an upset, he's a lock to fight Floyd.

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.

The guy has put butts in seats in NYC, and LA. His rating despite the geale fight have always been in the million viewers.

All this despite not having a huge Kazakhstan fan base. The guy draws, and a fight with Mayweather would do big numbers. But the popularity of the fight has nothing to do with why Mayweather won't take the fight.

Even if he was getting 2 million viewers on HBO he still wouldn't get the fight, because it's too risky for Mayweather. Pacquiao who is the 2nd biggest draw in boxing can't get the fight, why would GGG get it?

Pretty much.

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

Nobody complained about how Floyd fought the first time vs Maidana. He just spanked him after a rough start. Rematch, he ran and held all night. You known it too.

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????

What money did Maidana being in?? Was a damn cash cow??? No! GGG is better than other opponent right now except for PAC.

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.

And you refuse to accept the fact that floyd is a jr mw champion because you wanna make Floyd out to be this little tiny guy. Don't be scared homie

Well like I just clearly stated I would prefer that fight.

Floyd is tiny, at Jr MW. That's why he only fights there for big money.

I never disputed that Floyd is a Jr MW champion but really he should have been stripped of those belts anyway.

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.

floyd already tried to make the fight twice......pac walked away twice.....floyd went on to kill pacquiao in ppv's and floyd has looked better in the ring than pacquiao.......do you really think the demands would stay the same? dlh and floyd have a decent relationship business-wise.....are you that ****** to compare dlh to arum? floyd is still suing arum to this day! maidana is a gbp/showtime/haymon fighter therefore that fight is a lot easier to make. you pact@rds have nothing to say when pacquiao fights the rios' and algieri's of the world but wanna get sandy vagina's when floyd fight's a ww champion in maidana.

[HeroBando]

He's not both, he's a welterweight who sometimes fights at Jr MW for big money fights.

And that's why the poster described him as a "Welterweight" because that's exactly what he is.

He's held on to the 154 belt for 2.5 years. That's one hell of a paper champ
