Lmao......

I agree to a point, but it is not GGG's fault he reigns in a period of time with not a lot of name's that are good enough at 160 to take him to that place. And then it is entirely possible that he would make this "world class fighter who can give and take" a one sided beating per his usual outing.

We just don't know that answer, because the only guy at MW who fits that bill I believe is, Alvarez because of his youth and experience. (Still think Golovkin beats him spectacularly)

No I don't think it's GGG's fault that some don't want to fight him, nor can every era have many greats so he came at a time when there are just no great fighters to see where he stands. It is what it is. As far as a fighter who can give and take - take a one-sided beating, that is speculative. That fighter could expose weaknesses in GGG and every fighter has weaknesses. But again, there are no superstars on the horizon yet who pose a huge threat. But Canelo and Jacobs are the best he could face at this time.

Well, I think that both of those statements are bull****.

SOME fighters are avoiding Golovkin, TODAY, no question.

But Golovkin COULD have fought 4 world-class opponents by now.

And in every single case he CHOSE not to fight them.

Golovkin has the exact resume he wanted.

What world-class opponent did Golovkin fight ?

Who did GGG duck at 160 that was a threat?

[Redd Foxx]

Who did GGG duck at 160 that was a threat?

1) Lara.
2) who says he must stick to 160? How many legends (outside of HW) refused to budge from a single weight class?
Guy's resume is a joke. K2 should come here for marketing ideas because these nsb clowns sure go the extra mile to find creative ways to spin can crushing. Some of these promoters vomit on the floor and you guys go lap it up. Demand better from fighters you like.

Child, Lara is not even rated at 160 and that's not a duck, no one wants to see Lara run for his dear life for 12 rounds. A duck is when a fighter is not willing to fight ranked fighters in his division. Before you start calling people clowns, find some GGG fanboys because I am not even a fan of his. I have nothing bad or good to say about him. Go. Leave. You are excused.

Lemieux came back from a KO loss to Rubio to win a real world title, which is something Jacobs hasn't done.

But did he get any respect for that from the hate squad when he put his title on the line against Golovkin?

Nope. He got stopped by Rubio, when he was 22 yo old, so that meant he was a bum.

I provided a counter argument to this the other day and you were mute.

Again, how can you say Lemieux won a REAL world title when all 3 of Lemieux's best opponents, including N'dam, were against people Quillin already beat? The same Quillin Jacobs stopped in 85 seonds.

Lemiuex won a VACANT title, while Quillin actually defended his title. Again, all of Lemieux's best wins were against opponents Quillin already defeated, yet you still find a way to discredit Jacobs. That's not even mentioning the fact that Lemieux lost twice to C Level opponents; one by KO.

Please explain how that works?

Respect to Jacobs for coming back from cancer, but stopping Quillin, who has never beaten a real top class opponent in his whole career, does NOT make him better than anybody GGG has fought.

And while I'm the subject, I'm 100% sure that if GGG had stopped Quillin the way Jacobs did, less than a minute into the first round with Quillin on his feet and saying he wanted to carry on fighting, this place would still be going crazy with people screaming fix and demanding an instant rematch.

Quillin had a draw with Lee in a fight I thought he won and more importantly, he knocked down Hassan N'Dam 6 times in their fight when N'dam was undefeated, the same guy u claim Lemieux won a "real" world title against where in fact it was a vacant title. Jacobs beat an ok fighter to win the title but he has a victory over an undefeated top guy in Quillin, something GGG himself doesn't have.

U wanna talk about facing world class fighters? how can u down a Jacobs opponent for not facing any world class fighters, when GGG himself never did?!

Jacobs or Lara would be the best most credible opponents for GGG right now by a 100 miles because they're fighters who proved themselves and showed that they belong to the elite fighters at or around that weight as of right now, Korobov was a promising prospect before he got stopped by Leeand had injuries, we have no idea where Korobov is at now because he still didn't come back from all that and he never beat a C+ level fighter in his whole career.

[UNBIASED BOXING]

Manny Pacquiao lost to two guys early on in his career. Therefore, he is a bum and B-level fighter.


Matt Korobov lost to a solid fighter, one he was easily outboxing, and is called a bum? Despite a very solid amateur pedigree and good professional career up until that point?


The ****? Korobov can honestly beat anyone in the middleweight division not named GGG. One loss doesn't mean he can't ever beat anyone again. The **** is wrong with NSB?

[Chuckguy]

I'm disappointed GGG needs to fight a live dog already

Ha lmfao ridiculous post. In that case why should any undefeated fighter fight someone with a loss on their record since they are obviously fighting someone's left overs.
