Tom Loeffler - "You Will Be Pleasantly Surprised with Golovkin's Next Fight"

[Porter's Dad]

Taiga might want to sit out the next few plays.

It's just so absolutely crazy to me, the levels to which certain fighters make certain fanbases so acutely insecure

i don't think it will be lemieux, oscar won't put him with ggg right away. i hope is lara, but a fight with ward would be perfect

Fighting 4 times a year is hardly "lofty goals", nor does it define how "special" he is. It's what he has been doing anyway. It's quite simply a fight schedule that he may or may not meet - but you are the one who chose to focus on it for some utterly bizarre reason. No-one is going to be "shocked" when it turns out he will only fight 3 times this year - although again, maybe you might want to look away from the idea of a calendar year and see that his last four fights, from Geale to Monroe, happened in the space of 10 months.

So if he fights before October of this year....guess what, genius? He will have fought 4 times in the space of 12 months (a year).

This **** is all on Boxrec FFS

It's a lofty goal when u use it as an excuse for fighting a guy like Monroe or adama. Once again Loffler likes to do that and once again his fans use it as an excuse. Not sure why ppl are acting like they don't know. But continue being captain save a damsel.

Monroe rematch.

I was thinking that about Lem too, but he is starting to seem the most likely. Lara would be good. Ward would be great just so Dirk Diggler could get over that hump in his life.

If you're not happy that one of the most exciting fighters in the world might be stepping up the level of his opponents,then I'm not so sure that you're a "real boxing fan".

He is only exciting to his limited fan base, which consists of boxing's intellectually-challenged fans who think that anything other than standing in the center of the ring and slugging away at each other until one fighter falls down is a boring fight.

Second, I will be happy if he fights a high-quality fighter who has a snowball's chance in hell of beating him. Stepping up the level of his opponents means nothing because a step up for GGG would be Pauli Malignaggi.

Me either. Pretty sure Ward is long shot.

My money is on Lara.

You don't think Golovkin is exciting? Just as a matter of judging your particular taste can you list a few fighters that you think are exciting?

Posts like these hurt your cause. Ain't nobody about to start giving your track n field marathon runners any more credit just because you pretend like GGG isn't highly skilled. Keep dreaming.
