Comments Thread For: Golovkin To Continue Fighting 3 To 4 Times Per Year

[The plunger man]

or maybe the went over there bc pbc gives the highest purses..and they also get the best ratings of all channels..also haymon made floyd the man...why not be with the best...hbo kicked haymon off he didnt leave..they were pissed he let floyd go get super rich at showtime

Do we know they give the highest purses.....yeah floyd had higher purses......but were no sure about the others....I know damn sure Stevenson ran away from facing kovalev......when they was in deep discussion to sign to fight....from what I see on PBC it's never gr8 match ups and defrost the cpc (cherry picking channel) you see it wilder,Garcia,thurman and even broner facing theothane now lol....come on money or not it's crap channel

just wait when ggg fights 4 times a year that means at least 2 or 3 journey man people will not talk near the **** they about a wilder or someone like that who is doing the same exact thing

[LoadedWraps]

Doe? Why do I see more and more people using this? What the fudge is a "doe". Seriously doe!

JK.

He doesn't fight bums.

No one can fights A fighters everytime. No one does. GGG has some in his sights.

wilder fights bums as his first option. ggg doesn't. i dont know how thats the same exact thing. ggg has fought the best opponent who was willing to fight him for the last couple years. wilder has literally tried to fight some of the worst comp ive ever seen as his first option.

J.C.Chavez used to take non title fight in Mexico to let his home fans see him. Okay they may have been paid sparring/exhibitions, but there still on his record. GGG could quite easily do the same in Kazakstan against super-middleweight's or even light heavy's.(Just a thought)!

[Showtime..]

Yes, and that's why he has an ever growing fan base. You don't have to wait forever to see the guy fight like Andre Ward or Manny Pacquaio or Floyd Mayweather

Pacquiao & Floyd fought multiple times when younger.

Ward has always been a clown.

[Andre Ward]

This is good love to see fighters more active gives you an advantage too. Only way I could understand fighting less than two times a year is if you suffer an injury. Or you get into a war that takes a toll on you.

I really think a fighter never has to move up for the most part. it is up to them. If bigger fights are in the next division, well, that's fine but moving up carries a lot with it. For a fighter like GGG, it means you may not be able to score KOs like he can at middleweight. I would never want to give up that power. Let's face it. You can debate a decision all day long, but a knockout leaves no room for that. If he stays at middleweight forever, that is fine with me. Clean out the division and just hold steady. Once his name is big enough, the young guns at 154 will seek him out. It's what the heavyweights do after all.

I agree with that for the most part, especially the bold.

A lot of great fighters only fought in 1 division.

I hear guys calling for fighters to move up all the time, but thats not really how boxing works. Every fighter has their best weight, and it does make a difference.

We can see that today without same-day weighins when certain guys drain themselves, sometimes they are actually a better fighter in the division above..... we can also see that with the catchweight manipulation that goes on.

But if a fighter is dominating his division, and if he is ready willing and able to fight certain guys in the division above, and if he really is great..... then why wouldnt he want to fight the best?

At least GGG does not allow the politics to slow him down. Some fighters complain about promoters and other problems with managers and what not and yet, continue to remain unseen but GGG stays out there on a regular basis. It's that "No excuses" attitude that gets it done.

wilder fights bums as his first option. ggg doesn't. i dont know how thats the same exact thing. ggg has fought the best opponent who was willing to fight him for the last couple years. wilder has literally tried to fight some of the worst comp ive ever seen as his first option.

The selected Monroe over Lara, and justified it by saying that Monroe was a bigger draw

Dont get me started
