GGG seems to be a good solid fighter,i do not hate him

[SilverMiles]

so i cant make threads?

It would nice if you stopped but it's your right so go right ahead.

I for one find them quite amusing.

On one hand, you're saying you don't hate him and root for him.

On the other hand, you're saying how skeptical you really are of him.

What do you really want to say? Just say it...you dint like him much (you don't hate him either.) And you don't like how highly he's regarded, because you feel it's unwarranted. I understand that much.

I'm a Rigo fan and am skeptical of his age, punch resistance and inside fighting ability.

I'm a Lara fan and I am skeptikal about his ability to vary his attack on offense and inability to fight inside.

I'm a Lomachenko fan and I am skeptikal about his inability to fight inside and I am not happy with his opposition this year.

I'm a Crawford fan and have been extremely disappointed with the opposition he's faced this year.

I'm a Chocolatito fan but still question his level of opposition and get the feeling that he is pricing himself out to avoid Estrada.


There is a fine line between being a fan of a fighter and recognizing a fighters' skill versus **** riding, defending everything he does and complaining about every criticism about him.

No my point is it is harder for offensive first fighters to be effective moving up in weight

I get that but those guys all fight in the MW division (above the 154 division but below the 160 limit). They're barely moving up. So the notion that GGG is fighting a smaller person is misconstrued because they all fight in the same division and there's a 5-8 pound difference between then.


Also, if you're so concerned about offensive fighters (Canelo/Cotto) moving up in weight, why exactly are you asking GGG to move up in weight...

Hate is part of being on top. But I want no part of the hate. I just see it as it is and I can understand why the guy is being ducked. You gotta be an idiot to make him accountable for being ducked.

[Bigg Rigg]

He gets a pass from me. He beats Lemiux, and once he beats Canelo, HE HAS TO MOVE UP AND FIGHT WARD. GGG is one of my favorites, but if he decides not to fight ward upon beating Canelo, then he will lose my respect.

GGG vs Cotto-Canelo winner will probably take place in May or June. What's Ward gonna be doing all that time???

You want GGG to jump 12-15 pounds in weight to fight Ward?

Cotto is in his 4th division and Canelo is in his 3rd...offensive fighters can only move up so much....160 is not a great division and i simply said there is better comp at 168 AFTER GGG CLEANS OUT 160...moving up 1 division and 8 pounds is not to much to ask right?

I do not know why people are still talking about Ward-GGG..fighters need to look up and not down..Ward already called his bluff now he is looking up toward Kovalev and thats what he needs to be doing

The point is that if you want GGG to fight in a higher division, you can't excuse Cotto/Canelo when people are asking the same thing you are (when both are technically fighting in the MW division for a few years now and only need to move up 5 pounds).

If you don't want Cotto/Canelo to move up, fair enough. Then you can't ask the same for Golovkin.

[-Kev-]

When I said that I personally don't find Golovkin's style entertaining they lost their minds.

You know that reminds me, I was having a conversation with a coworker about boxing. I asked him about GGG and he said he finds his style pretty basic and boring, and that GGG just looks like a powerful guy but he finds his fights boring. This guy is white/American, I told him about Boxingscene and how if he would have said that on this forum he would have been accused of being black panther wannabe, needing welfare checks, not paying child support and being "******". He laughed and I told him it's true, try it, and the memebrs saying these things would not get disciplined at all

All my coworkes are white, i'm dead serious I am literally the only Hispanic/nonw white, and they like Floyd Mayweather, the several that I have spoken to about boxing. So it would be funny to watch them post here and be called Martin Luther King wannabe or some racist crap like that, cause they like a fighter with a different skin color as them, and are not too interested in a fighter with a similar color as them.
