May not end well for GGG...

Because he would have moved up a division, it's called having a SACK, it's that simple. Also, as I stated the MW division is **** compared to when those guys fought, he can have the same accomplishment it doesn't deserve nearly the same credit. Let's say Cotto gets stripped and GGG is the lineal MW champ, when your best names on your resume are Murray and Geale, it's an insult to mention the names you did. Move up if you want to prove yourself this isn't boxing from 30 years ago.
Where are the better fights truly? Right now the biggest fights for GGG are against Canelo and Cotto. Those are the biggest fights for him without question (not including Mayweather of course). If he goes to 168, who is there now? Ward? And then what? Groves, DeGale, Dirrell, Bika, not exactly big names here we're talking about. The only big name there is Froch but who knows what the hell hes going to do with his career at this point. Same with Ward (is he going to stay at the Chavez weight class of 172 or is he going to 175 or going down to 168? we don't know).
Might as well stay put at 160, try to force his mandatory against Cotto, unify the titles and get a big Canelo fight THEN move up in weight. Literally no reason to move up right now at all.Comment

Isn't that what we expect from Miguel Cotto? To be a hero at a higher division of 160lbs?
GGG is good... His resume is weak and there is nothing about beating a former 140lb champ named Miguel, that is going to make GGG an ATG. They better come up with another plan.Comment

A beacon of light for young GGG ball gaggers to aspire to become.
An example of how well one man can gag on another man's balls if one puts his mind to it.
Barcham knows balls.Comment

At the end of the day hes not getting any younger and has the resume of a young prospect and hes early 30's.
Tick tock. If you are not getting fights MOVE UP. MOVE DOWN. Something. Dont just keep fighting bums.
When Paul Williams couldnt get fights he moved his ass up and down and fought everyone he could.
Why wont he just simply go to 168lbs? If he doesnt hes going to be 36 by the time there is a suitable 160 pounder lion to fight.
What is his team doing?
Willie Monroe? wtf
Murray
Rubio
Geale
Adama
Stevens
These guys blow.Comment

Williams moving up in weight screwed him over actually, he never fought again at welterweight because there was no incentive for any welterweights to fight him. Once he left 147 and lost his position in the rankings, any title eliminator fights, mandatory fights went out the window. And he was basically forced into a Martinez rematch, remember Williams really didn't want it and was even requesting a catch weight, got iced still.
Monroe is actually a good fighter, you should watch him.
As for 168, not a whole lot there either (see my post abo ve).Comment

Monroe is trash. Has no business near any ring with Golovkin in it.
Point is Williams fought Martinez. Somehow someway he fought him twice. Golovkins career as of now is a joke.
There is one fight he needs to take and its Andre Ward. Somehow someway he HAS to fight him.Comment

And the SMW division is worse than MW with no hope of improvement unless GGG moves up. How about giving GGG the time to unify the division and then move up when HE decides to do so? I'm sure if you wanted to finance a PPV fight between GGG and Ward to the tune of at least 10 million per fighter, they would be willing to talk. If not, why not STFU and let him run his career the way he wishes?
Seeing as how you are so willing to let Cotto fight GGG's leftovers with no criticism, you really are in no position to attack GGG for his decisions.
Hey guess what... Floyd, Cotto and Canelo are fighting for the same reason. They all bring more money than GGG so as I've been saying he has to get in line, that's boxing.Comment
