Comments Thread For: Golovkin: I'm Not Leaving 160 Until I Get All The Belts

[285Kid]

Oh yeah forgot two guys, GGG, Kovalev, Wladimir, Rigondeaux, Lomachenko are the only current champion so see talking about they want unification of all titles

[SugarRaRobinson]

Id like GGG to go up and show real greatness because i dont see a challenge at 160. He is too good.

But Ward fanboys trip me up. GGG hiding at 160 forever? Isnt that what Ward has been doing until he got too fat out of inactivity and fought the great Paul Smith?

Making ridiculous demands? Ok Mr Oakland, 10 people show up

Wanting Ward to come down in weight? Ward did it to Dawson

Wanting to fight "smaller fighters" (who are in his division)? Ward wants to fight GGG, 1-2 divisions below!

So, if you hate GGG, you have to hate Ward. And vice versa.

Or you can pick your guy and be a hypocrite

Firstly , Dawson said he'd come down in weight , so he did it to himself . Why must people keep repeating the same false statements when they've been corrected over 100 times ? Secondly , Ward wants GGG @ 168 nothing north of that . But if u wanna claim Ward is 2 weight divisions above GGG then that works advantageously to GGG's favor , not Wards, as weight draining yourself 2 divisions for a fight is career suicide .

The irony. Lomachenko all of a sudden wants to unify after Walters can no longer make weight. And GGG wants to unify now that Ward has pulled his hoe card.

[Spacey1991]

Can't blame him, he seems to make 160 comfortably, if he was to fight at 168 now he would be fighting at his training weight whilst others are boiling down so hes got no reason to rush towards 168 right now, might as well be undisputed champ at 160 if Cotto/Canelo fight him.

What happened to wanting the best to fight the best?

[Bandman]

GGG doesn't need to rush a fight with Ward. What's the urgency for, it is not a huge event yet, Ward must build his reputation again. Super Six was 2011, nobody remembers that. GGG is trying to be our era's Bernard Hopkins, and there's nothing wrong with that, he wants to make history books. Some say he's waiting to fight "smaller" middleweights, well what were the most notable wins for B-Hop? two "small" middleweights in Tito and Oscar.

GGG is the full package, he can shut out the opponent without putting you to sleep. He is blessed with tremendous power and knows how to pace himself. Mayweather is very skilled and it's not his fault he can't punch hard but GGG give's you money's worth. I actually think Floyd-GGG at 154 is a very close fight, can Floyd be elusive for 12 rounds against that power? can GGG stay focused even when he's punching air and getting tagged with pot shots? can he even carry his power with him down in weight? I would love to see it.

GGG-Mayweather is mega fight.
GGG-Ward is not mega fight.

Ward must get his body used to 175 and then take on Kovalev. If Ward beats him then just like that he becomes P4P number one because Kovalev is more dangerous than GGG's whole resume. Then after that he can meet GGG in a super fight.

[Ham Porter]

And after that he's moving down to 154 to fight Pac. The guy is scared of Ward we all know it. He's totallly fine beating up on smaller boxers.

Favourite fighters current: Nicholas Walters

Favourite fighter past: Marvin Hagler

Mayweather-GGG isn't a megafight. GGG is a nobody in the mainstream.

Ward-GGG is currently the biggest fight in the hardcore boxing community.

You all Know damn well GGG once tried to make fight with Ward

Ward had legal issues, so they moved on. That's it.

If it's a big fight, it'll happen.

Clear out 160, make your money, then move up to fight Ward, if he hasnt outgrown 168 by then

Establish a legacy at your own weight before being undersized at 168

Ward is literally doing nothing right now.

Golovkin: I'm not leaving 160 until I get all the belts*

*unless it's Mayweather or Froch. I won't leave 160 for Ward

You know They once tried to get the Ward fight. Sure, they didn't drop their plans once Ward was finally game. Who came blame them.

Translation, I won't leave 160 until Ward goes to 175.

You know what crack me up about your Dan Rafael quote, it's the exact thing you Ward fans are saying GGG should do.

Fight Ward then go for unification.

Hypocrites.

But he's a boxer not a businessman. He just said it last night.

He does have a team. And he wants the belts. It's clear that's his goal.

Froch or Chavez jr squeezed in at 168 & Ward at 164.

Different weight classes you feel me.

They never offered Ward a Catchweight. Lof had a discussion with Dan, and an article was written.

Never did they say publically or offer Ward a Catchweight.

They once tried to get Ward to fight, Ward said no.

They moved on.

So should you.

What is this, see who can come up with opposing comments

GGG/Mayweather would very much be a megafight. (One I don't want, Floyd has no chance, too small) Have you been paying attention. Find a major sports site not talking about boxing a next superstar.

Then you claim the GGG/Ward fight is big with Boxing fans.

Wow!

You know what's gonna be big.

GGG/Canelo

It's mandated to be next.

B-hop and De La Hoya both have said it has to happen.

I am begining to think no way they vacate.

And WBC said this, making sure they know they will strip.
