Golovkin is a good fighter but Broner is held to a different standard in the sport of boxing!!Golovkin vs Quillin is a good fight but Cotto is going to fight Canelo
!! Broner is fighting Porter that's a very solid fight on paper! Golovkin vs Ward is a great fight!! Golovkin skills or underrated by the casual fans who or blind to the different nuances of the sweet science!

So does that mean, once GGG finally gets the belts/cleans out his division completely, people will stop hating on him?
Nobody was clamoring for Ward vs. Pascal/Bute
Ward even fought the best at 175, albeit it was at 168. In the form of Chad Dawson. But of course his accomplishments gets ridiculed by excuse making douchebags that claim Dawson was so drained. GGG's victory over Monroe earned more respect from some. SMH
HBO finally created enough HYPE for Kovalev that now it makes sense for Ward to move up to 175.
Meanwhile GGG is openly avoiding a clash with the consensus 2nd best boxer in the world at 168.
Ward is GGG's signature opponent. Period. So many greats from the past never had a signature opponent to define their greatness.
GGG would rather challenge former Jr Welterweights like Cotto. That says a lot about this man's character.
He knows WARD will bust his ass. Period.

AA fans I tell ya, stay in school you gonna need it and life is very long.
Broner still makes 140 comfortably. He may have grown the 126 weight class, but he was never a Welterweight. He chased the big fights and lost on his way.
That's still more honorable than what GGG is currently doing. SCARED to move up and fight the best at 168. Andre Ward is more of a career defining fight than Canelo and Cotto (two recent TBE victims).
If a smallish Welterweight like Floyd Mayweather is spanking Cotto and Canelo then why should I be interested in "allegedly" one of the hardest punching Middleweights in history fighting Cotto and Canelo?
GGG is looking like a HYPED UP PUNK right now. Running scared of SOG! He's fully aware of what SOG has done to TEAM EUROPE (Abraham/Froch/Kessler). They all got OWNED. GGG knows he would get spanked as well.

2. Ward is fighting Paul Smith next, and wants more tuneups
3. GGG offering to fight p4p Froch in the UK at 168 is a bigger risk than any Ward has taken. The only time he faced a Ring p4per, the #10 ranked guy came down a whole division and was dead at the weight

Broner was fighting at JR LIGHTWEIGHT in 2012.
By the end of 2013, Broner was defending his WELTERWEIGHT title against Maidana.
That was a helluva accomplishment but he received mostly criticism.
If GGG were to follow in Broner's footsteps he'd be defending his WBA CRUISERWEIGHT title at the end of 2016. LOL! Look how unrealistic that seems.
Like I said, DOUBLE STANDARDS in boxing for AA boxers. It's been that way. Do the research.
Doesn't matter though because AA fighters keep succeeding anyway.

It's ok for them to fight Tomato Cans, pad their records and stay in one weight division for their entire careers.
Meanwhile Adrien Broner was fighting Marco Maidana at 140 only a year removed from JR LIGHTWEIGHT. What did he get for it? Criticism and humiliation from the "fans".
Conversely, it's arguable that JEFF LACY is still Joe Calzaghe's most significant victory of his career.
Kovalev's most significant win to date is a 50 year old BHOPS...
GGG's most significant win is DEGALE or MURRAY.
SMH
Double standards indeed...
Broner fought Maidana at 147. He missed weight badly in his last farce at 130.
Mikel Kessler was unquestionably a bigger win for Calzaghe than Lacy was.
GGG has never even fought DEGALE.
Other than that...perfect.

Now GGG fighting someone Ward beat years ago is bigger than anything Ward has done??
Ward has been calling GGG out for a long time now and Team GGG was the one saying they aren't ready. Make sure you point those facts out as well.
Like I said before, Broner jumped two weight classes and won a world title in his third weight class. GGG still hasn't fought the best in his own weight class, much less 3 divisions NORTH.

Broner > Triple Duck
Golovkin is in a weigh class where he doesnt have to cut alot of weigh AND he hasnt cleared it yet, hes missing cotto and canelo is hiding at 155. As soon as those PPV fights are done he will move up and fight froch, chavez jr and ward.
