    GGG was given a list of 3 fighters and picked the guy with 6 ko's.

    smh
    He picked the southpaw with fast hands and quick feet who has proven he has a decent level of boxing ability when he won the boxeo tournament.

    It was a different style deliberately to showcase talent against varied opposition.

    Who else could he have chosen who would accept the fight?

    smh

      And yet the GolovIdiots give him a pass for fighting a guy with all of *6* KOs on his record. If it were Mayweather or Ward fighting a guy with the same number of KOs they both would get crucified around here...

          Golovkin fights 4 times a year, Mayweather fights 2, Ward fights barley 1.

          Common sense dictates that the more active you are the less consistently skilled your opposition can be... or you'd run out of elite fighters in 1 year of fighting.

          Golovkin also just came from beating Murray and Geale, some of the best in his division. Come off it.

            He was talking about Paulie.

                Hard to fight all the top guys when:
                1.) They are blatantly avoiding you
                2.) You are fighting 4 times a year
                3.) Promotor/contract/scheduling issues, etc.

                Remember his other options at the time? ..Tureano Johnson, Heiland..? Remember everyone shitting on those possibilities saying Monroe would be the better test but GGG was afraid of "slick" styles or whatever? He picks the "better" option but still gets shit on.

                I'm not saying Monroe or most of GGG's past opponents were great, challenging fights, but they were the best options at the time given the circumstances I mentioned above..

                  1.The top guys all suck
                  2.MW is dead.
                  3.Move up and take some challenges
                  4.GGG doesn't have time to fart around in the MW division any longer.
                  5.He's starting to slip already

                      Fighters of a certain hue are held to a higher standard.
                      The haters are admitting we are better without realizing it.
