    Anybody that is coming up from 140 is getting knocked clean out by GGG.

    It's not like Cinnabuns won't get his silly ass knocked out as well.

    If Golovkin sat on the MW throne for the rest of his career, wouldn't be mad. If he can make the weight, so be it.

    Now watch this Brit come in and school him.

      Think that's just coincidental.

      The real reason he's not liked by some is because the fighters he rivals have huge fanbases, Saul Alvarez, Miguel Cotto and Floyd Mayweather. Some Cubans aren't high on him either because of Lara.

      As soon as he was mentioned with Floyd Mayweather that put most of black America and the flomo nation against him, after Cotto beat Martinez we're seeing Puerto Ricans against him and some Mexicans with Canelo although along with the Brits most Mexicans like him and appreciate his style.

        This.

        He needs to fight some stuffer comp, but like Rigo, he is struggling to get meaningful fights because he is dangerous and peoole make all kinda Floyd Mayweather esq excuses to duck and dodge and make it seem like they arent.

          When GGG beat Proksa, there were threads from his fans putting him up against Hagler, Monzon, Hopkins, and the poll results were GGG winning. There's also people who say he KO''s prime Jones.

          I know his fans want to twist it now and say "it's the race" or "It's cause GGG would good boy their fave fighter". But the GGG hatred was around already when GGG was only calling out Sturm and Martinez, because of his rabid fans.

          What's funny is that GGG's fanbase are pretty much the same fans that fall for the same hype over and over again. The Margarito and Matthysse fans, who hate Canelo, Ward, Mayweather, Cotto, Hopkins, Dirrell.

            True. However, if GGG was black, Larry would have named his first child G'nady. If he was British (obv. not a race), Dirk Diggler would post non-stop about him. etc. etc.

              If GGG beat some one with a pulse, everyone would like him. No matter the color of the fan.

              Canelo is a white Mexican, all kinds of fanbases love him. He proved himself against Trout and Lara.

                but imo cotto will never fight GGG, he just won, he know his career better then use and really all he has beat were handicap fighters. So he knows he has no chance.
                Canelo is obviously going to 160 at some point, he's not going to stay at 154 forever. His last couple fights were at 155 because it's more comfortable for him, he's outgrowing the division. He's also man enough to fight GGG I believe, which is why I was really hoping he would beat Cotto because we all know Cotto is never going to fight Golovkin.

                Right now 160 is such a mess and full of pu ssies. Cotto isn't fighting any middleweights. Quillin dropped his belt rather than fight his mandatory only for Andy Lee to win his vacant belt and now is fighting Quillin lol. Jermain Taylor has been stripped and the two guys ranked high enough to fight for that title are two guys who have ducked Golovkin for years, N'dam (didn't show up to two purse bids) and Felix Sturm (GGG was his mandatory for two years).

                After Murray, if Golovkin doesn't get a unification bout this year he should just move up, which is a shame for any fighter to have to move to a different weight class to find willing opponents.

                    What card is that? That Kazakhstan card?

                    Everyone would like him no matter the color? Get real. Do you really believe that? You can't be that naive and ******.

                    Just kidding, you are.

                      seriously, yall can stop with the race card thing. GGG is as popular now despite not beating a top name in his division. He has nice charisma, movie star looks, a name easy to recognize and brand (GGG), a good personality and a high k.o ratio. All things that can get you the paid pakage complete with a set of fans and some people who are never gonna think your good enough no matter what. Hell he's arguably more popular than rigo, and way less popular than canelo. I personally know more blacc guys in my hood that have heard those letters GGG and knows he k.os people even though they have no idea what those letters stand for, but couldnt name one fight rigo has had or even where he's from.

                      I suspect GGG will garner even more public attention if he k.os the british guy next.
