    Dunno......Lee seems like a weak choice but I guess that 160 is a weak division overall and Cotto will never fight him. I'd like to see he and Lemieux later this year though.

      Man I like GGG, but why is he taking the easy route with Lee instead of fighting Mike Tyson?

      Sounds ******ed right? ^ Well accusing him of ducking another retired fighter in another weight class is no different.

        He has something that GGG wants to collect, a strap. GGG has made it well known that he wants all the division's straps

            I like this fight. Andy Lee in 2014 had the power to buzz the whiskers of any middleweight on the planet. Can Lee hurt golovkin before GGG blasts him out?

              Yeah, but GGG also said he was willing to fight Jermain Taylor. Regardless of the IBF title, I didn't like hearing that.

                Paper titlists are meh choices as the man makes the title not the title makes the man~ if Lee defended his belt a couple times I could see it more.


                160 is ass it offers nothing to Golovkin, if he wants to hang out there beating up schleps that is his choice but that is not him daring to be great in the slightest~

                  Yeah but where is he to go? 168, where we got 1 guy who for all purposes cannot fight, and others who refuse to fight him? 168, just take a look at it, there is no dangling fruit there, just more uncertainty. GGG finally got his name at 160 where other fighters cannot simply brush his name under a rug. He is considered the top gun there that people need to go through. If he moved up to 168, everyone there can say GGG has proved nothing at the weight and does not deserve a fight. GGG is stuck between a rock and a hard place. He has to stay where he is at. Right now 168 has no real options for him.

                    He's got his eye on Andy Lee's title but not Wards title. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.......

                      Dude wants to unify, so stfu and let him unify. Its not his fault the champions aren't of the highest caliber. I'd love to see a unified middleweight champ. Ward fight can wait, especially since he will most likely get in a tune up or 2 before a GGG fight.
