Golovkin - Not so great.

[bojangles1987]

How come when Sergio Martinez was going hard 10 and 11 rounds with the guys Golovkin breaks in 2 or 3, he was top 3 p4p?

[Chris Bauermeis]

Golovkin hasn't done shi.t as a pro.

His resume would be impressive if he were 23 instead of 33.

Actually his team is on record stating that they'll only fight big money fights above/below 160.

Same thing 99.99999% of fighters would do in his situation

GGG is older than 99.99999% of fighters...he doen't have time to waste...which is exactly what he is doing.

How come GGG isn't required to test himself and take some risks.??

[Chris Bauermeis]

Did you seriously make a new account just to hate on Golovkin?

Stop crying lil fella'

I'm not hating your cowardly hero.

You guys must be really thirsty to jockride such an overrated fighter.

He should KO those no hopers in that dead division.

Funny how he's not required to challenge himself and take more risks.
He's one of the oldest champs at 160 and has very little to show for it.

The guys he is fighting are not helping him become a better fighter or prepare him for a guy like Ward.

LOL. He's actually currently the youngest MW champ.

Funny thing is 18 months or 2 years ago, guys like Murray and Macklin were considered strong and relatively competitive challengers and Geale was a unified champ

In fact in late 2012/ early 2013 MW was actually considered a relatively strong division - and certainly not a weak one.

Problem is Martinez has gone from unbeatable to shot and GGGs steamrolled many of the contenders.

Sorry fella, The Fight Whisperer says Andre ain't fighting Golovkin anytime soon. Froch ain't fighting him either.

Where are these 'big challenges' he's supposed to be taking.

Don't get me wrong - I'd love to see him fight either of the above guys, but he can't fight them if they can't fight him.

Who else ya got?

Who else YOU got???..... besides a pair of old fighters in dead divisions.

Where are the eastern euro fighters in the more competitive divisions.??

Hmmm

He might be just that ******ed. Heard a guy earlier this week say GGG is legit in his eyes if he beats Sergio Mora or N'dam.


Lol

Haha I wouldn't be surprised. Just like the guy who thought if Broner took the fight seriously, would beat GGG, then goes on to call us ****** because we don't share the same ridiculous opinion. Hard to tell if people are trolling or if people are really that ******ed. I'm inclined to believe both but truly believe people are that ******; and not just about GGG: boxing "fans" have said some of the ******est **** I've read.

FWIW this Gaydarbekov guy beat Erdei in the 2004 MW Olympic semi-final by a wide margin, even scoring a KD on him.

It was a real heartbreaker for us Hungarians. We thought Erdei would win the gold medal for sure and it was a great disappointment that he had to settle for the bronze. This is why I remember the name of the guy who beat him.

Anyway, I agree with what a lot of posters have said here: if you have to dig up amateur losses to discredit a fighter, it means you are reaching.

GGG is OLD..no sense trying to act like he isn't.

The fact that Murray and Macklin were considered strong comp only goes to show how shi.tty the 160 is.
