Comments Thread For: GGG's Coach: If You're Not Real 160, Don't Fight For Title

[The plunger man]

Canelo did make that excuse. Said he was weak from the catchweight and that he would never, ever do that again and that a rematch with Mayweather would have no catchweight.

Canelo had to sit down at the weigh in...he was dehydrated at 152.u only had to look at his lips and colour to see that.....that's over 2 years now and he is bigger......it never affected the result but we're not talking about him physically not being able to make 154 anymore....I don't think he can make ....if he can he makes himself weak doing it....and the only reason why it's 155 is because canelo is and has been lurking in the wings and he knows the higher in weighs in the middleweights the less excuse he will have to dodge the fight with golovkin.....goldenboy knows that...canelo knows that...they sparred golovkin and I can tell you now he wouldn't be making 155 if golovkin was not around...he would be 157 100 percent...155 gives him an escape plan

Not so long ago, Canelo demanded to fight Cotto at 156 instead of 155 because he felt he is getting bigger and would have slight problems going down to 155:

Also that aboutfkntime guy is seriously mental, i dont even bother most of the time, guy is like a nolife lunatic repeating the same couple sentences in every GGG thread for months and as soon someone has any arguments he ignores that post or is getting insulting. Also someone sitting in this forum day and night and spewing lies, i am a bit sorry for him, so i wont even reply for the sake that he gets some sleep/food/hygiene once in a while.

Come on man, you are just a silly undercover pac-stain.

Your utter ******ity gives it away

It is funny that somehow you think that you are something special, I have been laughing at your ilk for the last 5 years.

I fit you somewhere in-between kuyukut and spoon23.

Pac may be #48 for Mayweather, but you are just number #473 to me son

What's up Raymond

[aboutfkntime]

Hopkins didn't wait for someone to be stripped? No sh it. Neither has Golovkin, Golovkin is the one trying to fight Canelo/Cotto, he never rejected fights against them weirdo.

What are you talking about ?

Loeffler: Cotto-Canelo Will Get 15 Days To Agree on GGG.....

WTF ?

GGG PUBLICLY stated that he will wait for the winner to be stripped.

And a huge pile of Golovtards co-signed that move, IN THIS VERY THREAD !

You then used Hopkins as an example to show me how a " real " fighter should carry himself..... forgetting that Hopkins actually did fight a threat, without making excuses, and he accepted a reasonable catchweight from Hoya because it was the right thing to do in order to make that fight happen.

Golovkin is NOTHING like Hopkins, not one bit.

You dont seem to have much idea about what is happening at all ?

[Redd Foxx]

Critics just need to recognize that Golovkin is old school. Maybe it's because he grew up in a former soviet block country, in a mining town. Whatever. He's tough. He wants to consolidate the title. He still thinks of belts as meaningful things.

However, the rest of you are more enlightened. But he won't change.

If he succeeds, won't it make the middleweight title truly meaningful -- or at least much more interesting?

I get the opposite impression. Making empty claims and calling for one guy to meet you at a catch-weight while you demand another come up to your weight doesn't sound tough. Sounds like a pampered bytch who has never fought a good opponent and wants to handicap all the good ones who might face him. Seems like there's an endless list of excuses to defend the guy. Old school means you get out there and chase the fights.

I never heard that.....

Good for him.

Problem is, I watched that fight.....

So Canelos weight excuse can sit in the trash, along with Pacs injury excuse.

Hi pac-stain

Does your new hype-train roll any faster than your old one ?



For someone who thinks that he understands the sport you sure do know how to pick em

Everybody is angling and building a career. When the careers are done, we can evaluate. Till then, let them angle. Everybody is using weight as THE means to gain a meaningful advantage over a prospective opponent IN the ring. Everybody.

It's a time game. The naturally smaller man often wants to buy time before facing the top guy in the heavier division.

This explains everyone's behavior: Cotto, Canelo, Golovkin, Ward. I really can't fault ANY of these guys.

Fair point Joe.
