    The problem with GGG

    is that even when he loses a round, his opponent gets battered. This is the problem with someone beating him, sure he shows vulnerability but even when they win the round, they come out of the round worse then he does. I think Ward is the only guy. IMO Cotto and Canelo shouldn't go near him. Cotto is too small and isn't durable enough. Canelo can be hit and doesn't have the stamina. They're both great paydays for him, but they don't need that fight. Especially Canelo, he's a young guy and a great fighter with a bright future, he doesn't need a beating here.

    the problem with GGG is a serious lack of quality opposition on his resume

      Pretty accurate, don't know if Canelo is great and if he wants to prove that he might have to fight Golovkin which I agree is a pretty tough ask for him.

      None of the dudes at 160 are likely messing with him, although I would like to see Lemieux get a shot if he can get by N'dam. Lemieux has real fire power so while he is really no where near Golovkin as an offensive machine, at least it could be a real firefight while it lasted.

        I give Canelo a pass for not fighting him because of the weight difference but Cotto on the other hand is just looking like such a diva. You got the Lineal recognition, don't cherry pick your competition, Fight the best contender or abandon the belts and gtfo. If he beats geal, muthafckn geal, there is no excuse for him not to fight ggg and still remain at 160.

          Canelo doesn't have stamina? Like the huffing and puffing from GGG in the corner in Round 4 with an above average Southpaw. Look at the tapes, GGG struggles with Southpaws from Ouma to Gardner as they went the distances. GGG never uses his jab on Southpaws. Ouma was a 154. Loeffler and Sanchez were bragging about taking anyone at 154 to 168 before attaining that WBC Interim belt. He wants Alvarez yet no Lara or Andrade or even worse before calling out Froch but no Ward. GGG's camp are the prime example of wanting big paydays but when it comes to elite opposition from fighters that dont have a fan base they run away and contradict their own words and promises. Why GGG doesn't want to WBO from the hard hitting Southpaw Lee is beyond me. Oh wait yeah the tapes. Abel Sanchez saying Lara is not a bigger name than Monroe Jr. they're not delusional they know exactly what they're doing with ducking. Saving that investment not to mess up his record and fool the buyers...

            The biggest problem is he aint fought anybody worth a fck , great potential but beating average comp is nothing to rave about , MW Roy Jones would have destroyed last Sat nights GGG in a less than 5 rounds , Gennady need to stop fighting B+ guys and step up to the big names at 168-175 .

              This must be a joke. Canelo is much bigger and hevier than Cotto but he gets a pass?

                GGG is the best 160lber out there. The only guy out there that can beat him is Quillin. And that's only if he lands a huge right hand early in the fight. These other guys don't have the size and strength to beat GGG.

                  So ward gets a pass for not fighting Stevenson or kovalev even though he's just 3 lbs under them,but GGG needs to skip a weight class,go up 15 lbs,just to prove he's good? Those are some serious double standards....

                    GREAT Faking post, man.


                    Cotto is a bum and a fahkin punk. Margs took his manhood, so we really can't blame the chump. Quitto= biggest fraud in boxing history.
