Catchweights exist for a valid reason and I can fully understand why GGG might want to remain at 160 for his entire career because the names coming up to 160 will be by far bigger than anyone at 168 or anyone who will ever go to 168lbs.
GGG simply isn't worth moving up to 168lbs when you can get a super fight with either Cotto/Canelo then you have guys like Andy Lee who would make a big fight, Peter Quillin then some of the lads down at 154lbs who will eventually come up such as Andrade, Lara, Charlo brothers and so on.
168lbs definitely isn't the stronger division and it doesn't have the better future coming up.
164 is not a weight class.
And you just named lara, Charlo brothers and Quillin as potential ggg opponents. All those dudes are with haymon. In fact everything 154 and below is pretty much haymon.
So you know just like everybody else that those fights won't happen.
And I like GGG but yall trying to make people believe that Andy Lee vs golovkin is a great fight. Stop it.
Andy Lee couldn't even beat chavez jr, what he gonna do with ggg?
GGG vs SOG is bigger than any fight Golovkin can make outside of the cotto/Canelo winner.
And the winner is not even guaranteed. Canelo and cotto are gonna make so much money, that they may fight a rematch.
If ggg doesn't wanna move up. That's fine. But don't say you will fight this guy and this guy at their weight class, but tell the best one of the 3 he has to move down too a imaginary weight class.
That makes it a duck.Comment

And I'm waiting for ggg to fight even one quality opponent. With just 6 fights under his belt, Lomo already has a better resume than ggg.Comment

any "fan of the sport" absolutely wants to see a Ward/ggg fight. That eliminates youI'm not worried about sht i'm a fan of the sport and i call it like i see it. You're just biased and butthurt cause Ward has no fans and hasn't had a meaningful fight in 4 years. Let that sink in for a second, Golovkin has fought on HBO 8 times in the last two years. Ward has fought on BET ONCE! in the last 2 years.Comment

translation- team ggg knows he can't beat Ward. If they did this fight would have gotten made. Just say itCatchweights exist for a valid reason and I can fully understand why GGG might want to remain at 160 for his entire career because the names coming up to 160 will be by far bigger than anyone at 168 or anyone who will ever go to 168lbs.

168 already have Abraham,jack,groves,dirrells,ward,one of the guys he was going to up to full weight to fight in Chavez, I'm missing a few more but you get the picture it's way bigger fights for him at 168 then it is at 160 but once ward came calling he stopped with the asking for the froch or Chavez fights at 168 and main focus is on unifying which definitely won't happen when Saunders beats lee and holds belt hostage ya'll make all the excuses about why ward should agree to 164 cw talking about money the fighters get in some groupie **** instead of actually seeing your favorite fighter challenge himself, but ward don't bring no money golovbum the A side but asking for a 50/50 split, A sides don't ask for 50/50 split but then try and throw cw in to kill fightCatchweights exist for a valid reason and I can fully understand why GGG might want to remain at 160 for his entire career because the names coming up to 160 will be by far bigger than anyone at 168 or anyone who will ever go to 168lbs.

Lomo's young enough I think he could cut the extra 2lbs without it hurting him. He'd still come in around 136-138. Rigo seems maxed out at 122lbs, his rehydration weights are about 126lbs.
Because their skills are relatively close in levels, I think the size difference will play a big part in the end result. I know Rigo doesn't have many options, but I don't blame him if he doesn't want to sell out his name for a loss to a bigger man in Lomo.Comment
