You have to bend to others demands to become great

[Eff Pandas]

Agree 100%.

Mayweather-went to 154 and used Oscars gloves of choice

Manny-jumped 2 divisions to fight Oscar


GGG-will have to agree to either 155 for Cotto or Canelo or 168 for Ward


simple as that,you have to bend one way or another if you want the prize of BEING THE FACE OF BOXING..He can not have it all his way,now he has a great opportunity to become great,but he has to make a choice and stop saying what he won't do.

Tyson was a heavyweight and American

Oscar was a Gold medalist and American


GGG is going to have to do what he has to do to snatch the throne

GGG is great with or without Canelo or Cotto. But eventually Canelo will have to move up and eventually will have to face GGG that just what it is.

Hagler had to wait for Leonard for 4 years but eventually he got the fight.

Yes, you are reading a boxing fan encouraging one champion to drag another champion of the same weight class down five pounds below the limit.

And people wonder why this 'sport' is dead.

Hopkins had to fight Oscar under 160..while both held titles at 160..because he wanted to be a big name

GGG is 33..do you think he can wait 4 years>

i think its more like take risks/ bend to others to become more well known/make more money.....

theres a reason why JMM kept chasing pacquiao up the weights and not chris john

[soul_survivor]

You should never bend to the will of another fighter...what Larry is confusing "bending" with is making the risky choice. GGG has easily be great by unifying the titles at MW and defending them for as long as he likes...i.e. Hagler and Hopkins. However, fighters that will forever be ranked above Hagler and Hopkins, the likes of Leonard, Duran, Armstrong etc, all took the extra risk to fight in higher divisions or at weights they were not 100% comfortable at.

That's the choice GGG must make. Honestly, I believe he shouldn't drop down but move up. There's DeGale, Ward, Jack, Groves, all fighters that can enhance GGG's legacy. He should at least fight 2 of them. And win of course.

Being the face of boxing is a lot different to being great.

Most of the world doesn't know who the current PFP #1 is.

Nor do they know who GGG is..thats my point man,,and how can he be great by fighting the Lemiuex's of the world?

[Ryn0]

I agree for the most part but 155 is just way too steep

[BattlingNelson]

Ward will have to come down to 160 and fight GGG in Kazakhstan.
