Comments Thread For: Gennady Golovkin-Willie Monroe Jr. Set For May 16

[animalfan10]

Let brotha GGG unify before he moves up and brings more tears to black america.

Lets just hope GGG doesn't run into a "Danny Garcia" like that other hype job on this forum did....That killed his hype real quick lol

But I do like GGG much better than Matthyse

Also AB had an easier time with Molina than Matthyse did...

Who's he supposed to fight? Just looking at the boxrec top 20, he's beaten Murray, Geale, and Rubio. Cotto and Quillin won't fight him, and Quillin's fighting Lee's anyway. Lemieux and N'Dam are fighting for the IBF belt. Jermain Taylor is incarcerated/insane. Sergio is shot. Soliman was on one leg against Taylor. Eubank Jr just lost to Saunders. And Saunders is waiting for the winner of Lee v Quillin.

He literally just fought and he's fighting in two months time. On that timeline the likes of Willie Monroe will be in the mix. It's not a good fight. But anyone trying to claim the likes of Heiland represent vastly better opposition is either deluded or full of shit.

Serious question, like I am genuinely asking here, not to start a debate or a war. Why is that with Quillin is that "He won't fight him", and with Lara is that "He's a Haymon fighter", but then...they're both Haymon fighters?

No complaints from me.

Monroe is a much better opponent than Jorge Sebastian Heiland.

Boone also knocked out Adonis Stevenson, put Andre Ward on the floor, and held Sergey Kovalev to a split decision, so its not like Boone is some bum.......

Maybe GGG should fight Boone lol.

I'm not sure what you mean. I think you are saying you think Monroe has more of a chance then Salka did. I don't but we can agree to disagree.

How can you think I said that if its clearly stated on the last paragraph?
What I am saying is that your argument is invalid when you refute it with ''whatever" or "agree to disagree"..this is not like salka fight,there is no disagreement there.You say just because neither has a chance is the same,but when you look at both fighters you can see they aren't in the same category (used the word ''same'' a lot ,I know).
Is like me saying usain bolt is running a 100 meter race against a high school kid is the same as him running against Carl Lewis..see,one doesnot belong there and the other,although not as fast,but competes in same weight(for the sake of boxing argument)has a slightly better chance.

So is this a unification bout? GGG said he wanted to unify. That ESPN belt is a big deal.

[Cuban Linx]

I'd love for those complaining to write down the realistic options for GGG for May. Cause those that are complaining have no other solutions.

so the WBO, IBF, or WBC beltholders are willing to fight him, and dont have fights scheduled against other dudes?

[Evil Abed]

Chocolatito and GGG on the same card? Hell yes.

Probably because Quillin did turn down a GGG fight prior to the HBO/Showtime/Haymon feud and all that stuff. But yeah, he's a Haymon guy, he's not going to be fighting on HBO just like Lara so regardless if Quillin now wants to fight it's likely his personal adviser would not allow it.
