What is there to dislike about Gennady Golovkin?

[SalimShady1212]

Ask Dirk Diggler, he'll undoubtedly give you numerous reasons not to like Golovkin?

Lol please don't, I don't have all day

[LacedUp]

He did have a lot of fans.

GGG is almost lineal champ of MW, but they keep ducking.

-Yeah? Because I distinctly remember him struggling to sell out small arenas.

But maybe that was just a dream.

Hype Job, what do you think he'd do to da slick African Irish American Andre Ward?

Knock him out.

Was that before or after Maidana?

Before and after for that matter.

He has never been the superstar with the fans like Golovkin is, despite being black, young, flashy and world champion.

The notion that people don't like Golovkin because of his colour is absolute dogshyt. He's currently the most popular and talked about fighter in the world.

LacedUp do you think Degale could beat Triple G?

Obviously he hasnt moved up yet, but from what you see thus far, will he be a problem for the likes of Degale, Dirrel and other SMW's not named Ward?

[Eff Pandas]

People don't dislike him they dislike his fans.

Pretty much this.

Every boxer at the level GGG has gotten to has fanboys & its hard to like any fighters fanboy type fans. But I'd still argue every fighter at the level GGG has gotten to, has hater fans. Its sorta a built in thing to have fanboys who think the sun rises & sets on your balls & the hater fans who's day starts & ends with trying to discredit their target once you reach a certain height in the sport. Both are equally delusional.

I think for anyone being reasonable & who just loves boxing its almost impossible to not like if not love GGG. The guy is f#cking adorable when he talks (no ****), he's a great immigrant story (which everyone still eats up I think) & he gots a style that is extremely fun & fan friendly to watch. I think K2 has followed a very Pacquiao type road with getting GGG to where he's at now & I believe Saturday was a testament to its success thus far.

Because HBO is backing him and they don't have the same roster as Showtime (besides Canelo, who was only recently acquired by them)

Broner was on a similar level of hype and popularity to GGG before GGG blew up and HBO started losing a chunk of their stars.

Do you think it's just a coincidence that most of the GGG haters on here are black and Fl0mos?

Ward will be a tough task for G imo

Although i still havent decided who takes it

GGG cleans out 168 including Ward and Degale.
