Comments Thread For: Mayweather, Golovkin earn top billing for 2015’s first half

[HEND]

GGG knocked out 2 cans and gets co-fighter of the "mid" year?? give me a break..how about we find another fighter who ko's below top 50 p4p guys and praise them instead...

The hype is unreal...
with that said neither Murray nor Monroe is a can but they aren't oppinebts who make you co-fighter of the year.

Mayweather should bow down to be in GGG's company

Wow!! Co-fighter of the mid year? Hilarious.

[ElMeroChingon]

Martin Murray is a can? Monroe is a can? One being a top ranked MW, who arguably won the lineal title against Martinez, the other a solid up and comer with good skills and neither had been stopped before Golovkin. Obviously they aren't elite, but if we're going to throw around the term can everyone's a can then.

Why do they hate GGG so much, he brings the drama show everytime he steps in the ring.

The money is there

The ratings are there.


It's official...

Golovkin vs Mayweather, Sept 2015.

I was trying to remember the fights Golovkin had so far this year and I can't think of anything memorable happening in either one. He beat 2 people he was supposed to beat.

I see the campaign is on to elevate him to the same level as Mayweather. We all saw what happened to the last guy they tried that with.

What is the definition of a can? How is Martin Murray a can? Robbed against strum and can make argument that he beat Martinez...yes he was older but not as shot as when Cotto fought him. Further, both Murray and Monroe are ranked in the top 10 Wba and Wbc middleweight rankings. Not saying their anywhere near elite status but their solid B B- boxers, can't blame GGG for wanting to stay active. Do I agree that he should be co-fighter of the mid year....no I think that reference should go to Kovalev. Nonetheless, Murray and Monroe are not cans.

While Manny was recently PUT TO SLEEP. Double standard. People act like GGG wouldn't definitely KO Pacquiao if they were in the same weight class.

Same weight class? It'd be hard not to pick Pacquiao over GGG. Floyd, a little less so because of style.

Pacquiao would be steered into a shot he doesn't see coming and knocked into Bolivian. His only shot at beating GGG p4p is to run, but leg cramps doe. Bradley made him dance in the rematch and even plodder Rios landed from the outside. Today's Pacquiao isn't doing a thing to GGG.

Floyd is very lucky to be mentioned along with GGG after sending so many people to sleep in his predictably boring snooze-fest with Manny.

Co-fighters of the mid year (lmfao at that) should be GGG and Kovalev.

GGG is one of my favorite fighters but they went for a popular choice. Neither of his opponents had even a puncher's chance and Monroe was a joke opponent. Not GGG's fault because there are a lot of duck artists at 160, but not fighter-of-the year material either so far.

Fonfara beating Chavez was an upset only to people who don't really follow boxing. Fonfara had show he was solid, and Chavev had shown nothing beyond a good 35 seconds vs Martinez three years earlier
