    If Floyd stayed at 130lbs into his 30s, he'd have missed out on fighting DLH, Hatton, Castillo, Gatti, Judah etc.

    You dont't just stay in one weight class your entire career and expect the smaller guys to come and fight you after they already moved up 4-5 weight classes to begin with. Don't even mention Hagler, he fought guys who were big like SRL 5' 10", Hearns 6'1". Smallest guy he fought was Duran who went up to 168.

          - Lara- calls out ggg on twitter. Trainer shields says it wasn't serious. Al haymon known not to work with hbo or other promoters( there are exceptions) Ggg is signed with hbo.

          - Chaves jr declined ggg fight due to dispute with top rank.Has now lost and now with al haymon.

          - Hopkins- lost to kovalev. Stopped calling out ggg.

          - ward- hasn't fought in ages. Trainer hunter said he would need a couple tune ups before fighting golovkin

          - cotto- avoiding golovkin

          - Canelo- Oscar said couple years time




          Ether, the **** that makes trolls feel ******
          Given his "modest" level of competition, it's hard to get a read on his true skill level. He certainly looks great hammering the crap out of the no hopers

            Spinks begged Hagler? Link? I followed boxing with a passion back then and can't remember this fight even being discussed let alone "begged" for.

                Well all he can do is keep on winning, this is his job.
                Or he should look vulnerable in his next fights to entice the so called fighters not wanting to fight him.

                Andy Lee will probably fight him, that mofo fights anyone.

                  Was very disappointed in Lee's performance versus Quillin. Or maybe I'm underestimating Pete. But Lee could've shown way more. Not sure I wanna see him against GGG at this point.

                    I love Lee the fighter. I wouldn't want to see him lose or take a beating, but I also think his right hook can KO any fighter in the planet. I liked his performance against an undefeated/overweight quillin, many people gave him 3 rounds to get knockout in.

                    And still...

                      GGG's career won't end well if they are basing his middleweight glory on beating a former Jr. welter named Cotto. Again, shyt division...GGG will only be given points for what his resume states. He better get to work on some serious fights.
