      I get he started his professional career a little later than most, but so did Sergio Martinez.

      Martinez went from 147-160 in his career. He did so in a matter of less than 10 years.

      If it's true that no one wants to fight you, and you are indeed this monster, then why not test those waters? It's not unheard of

        He was 140 lbs as a child. It's ridiculous to consider that "moving up in weight".

        Golovkin has weighed 170 lbs in the ring on multiple occasion in his 10 year career as a pro it's been entirely at MW.

        He could easily move up and should move up. Whether it be now or later but he should get a move on he's not getting any younger.

                His fight night weight is very variable. He is a perfect size MW.

                  Guys I'm not saying he shouldn't move up...

                  There's no doubt he will move up but he has unfinished business at 160

                    Most top level super welters are 170+ fight night

                      The point I'm making is Golovkin has moved up in weight, contrary to popular opinion. He turned pro later than a lot of top fighters, so people seem to be ignoring his move up in weight in the amateurs.

                      Bradley fought at 152 in the amateurs and is known to walk around very heavy btw.
                      "At the start of his Am career"

                      Serious question. What year was that?

                      Because Floyd fought at 106 "at the start of his Am career."
