Why are posters so concerned about GGG being HANDED another title?

[Larry the boss]

You'd prefer they fought for 3 MW belts + lineal at 155? That's a disgrace, never happened before. Sorry paper champs need to be stripped, why would you have a problem with that?

Hopkins was the lineal champ with 3 titles and had to bend and fight Oscar at a cathweight man

[HeroBando]

How would he become lineal champ? and why would he get into the hall of fame fighting the people he is fighting?

Becuase the previous lineal champ forfeits the belt to the superior fighter

He would be stripped of the WBC title..that is not the lineal title man...you have to win that in the ring or the lineal champ has to retire or leave the division

so wouldnt that make GGG a paper champion.....2/3 belts he didnt win in the ring...thats lame

You supported that? Oscar was a much smaller paper champ, robbed the weakest link for the Wbo belt, not lineal. And even with all that, he didn't demand a maximal CW.

It will be a paper title,he still won't be a draw and he will have no career defining belts on his resume.. What does him getting handed yet another worthless belt prove? He still will not be Lineal champ not Ring champ. Canelo can just sit there and bring fighters up from 154 and make a killing..GGG is going to have to make a crucial decision here because Canelo honestly does not need him at all.

Absolutely Larry. The title means nothing. He either fights Canelo, and caves into Canelo demands or he can have the belt, and it then becomes worthless. He will be the only undisputed clown of all time who's most note worthy win is Gabriel Rosado.

If GGG holds a the belts he can have more leverage. As meaningless as they are they still hold power unfortunately

I disagree here. The man makes the belt, the belt doesn't make the man.

If that wasn't the case then Chocalitito and Lil G would be making 100 Ms per fight.

He is leaving the division by giving up the belt, and insisting he's a Jmw, not a MW. You can't be a MW champ, much less lineal, if you're too small for MW

Having champs forfeit says a lot, they don't even think they have a chance.

You got it all wrong. The belt is worthless as long as the champ is a CW fraud. The belt has restored credibility when its held by the best at the weight

What's sad Larry, is that his fans are on a crusade to bring integrity to the MW division more so than Golovkin.

Golovkin bends and breaks in any direction that suits his agenda (winning) If it doesn't seem winnable he won't do it, if it does however, he will do it. He's a walking contraction.

He even considered fighting Cotto after Cotto lost to Canelo.

Team Lil C (contradiction)
