Boring runners are not even worth any boxer's time.
    Read the article his people are already discussing it. Time for Golovkin to tell his people he wants the fight.

      Makes no sense to me.

      One day they go "Everybody is ducking GGG....waaahhhh"

      But when a top fighter calls out GGG those cries turn to "Stop calling out GGG. Leave him alone."

      The most confused fambase in boxing right now.

        Notice how in that sentence about making the opponent frustrated and make mistakes he makes no mention of making them pay.

          Are you sure about that?
          Problem is I didn't say that. I'm saying that if Floyd wanted the fight, they'd find some way to make it. I didn't say what way it would get made, you've assumed one for me.

            Why is it that posters will not ask GGG to navigate the political landscape and make a Lara fight happen but then turn around and suggest Floyd navigate the same politics to make a GGG fight?

                Canelo fought Lara when Haymon was in the process of destroying Golden Boy Promotions and Richard Schaefer got fired. If GGG wants the fight they can and will make it happen.

                Fighters can defeat the politics if they choose to.

                    He's been with Haymon since Vanes and he wasn't with GBP at that time.There is even an interview with him insulting GBP and praising Al Haymon weeks before the fight.

                      No the problem here is that you pretend to know what HBO execs would and wouldnt do for Floyd, when clearly you have no idea.

                      For all we know, HBO wouldnt take that risk.

                      So no, it isnt all about what shots Floyd calls.
