Comments Thread For: Matt Korobov Ready To Face Gennady Golovkin on April 23

[Chollo Vista]

Rosado fought well with Charlo according to some people.

Ndam won every round that Quillin didn't drop him in.

Quit acting like Quillin is any better than Lemieux. They're both the same calibre fighter - flawed, little boxing ability, only have power. I'd take Lemieux to KO Quillin though.

Rosado lost just about every round to Charlo. It was a white wash with Charlo winning just about every round. All this before losing to Lemieux.

No, N'dam didn't win every round Quillin didn't drop him in. That's neither here nor there, because again, Quillin did all this before DL.

Quillin and Lemieux are not the same. Why did you not talk about Lemiuex's two losses to C Class fighters; one via stoppage? How many losses does Quillin have to C Class fighters? Are we just supposed to forget about Lemiuex getting stopped against Rubio and only focus on the fact that his 3 best wins are against opponents Quillin already beat so that somehow makes Quillin and Lemiuex equal?

• Eubank has a fight in March (as does BJS) and it looks like Saunders/Eubank are setting up for a summer rematch.
  
• Quillin & Jacobs are talking rematch.
• Heiland is having promoter issues, and sounds to be on the shelf til his contract runs out in the summer.
• Lee, Korobov and N'Dam are available, no-politics, and cheap.
• Not sure about Soro. He's been turning down fights with Liam Smith, J-Rock, and most recently dumped his Euro MW title rather than fight some Italian guy. I doubt he'd be willing to fight Golovkin for reasonable money despite him not being a big name opponent.

My money would be on Lee, but my hope is on Lara.

I saw an interview the other day where Jacobs didn't mention Quillin. But he did say that he was open to anyone at 160 and maybe gets a fight with BJS next summer.

That's true. Korobov hasn't been vocal at all yet he gets a call.

I don't see why Lara can't get a call too. If nothing else just to call his bluff.

How do we know Lara didn't receive a call? We only know about Korobov b/c his manager came forward.

Some people are implying that K2 is scared to have GGG/Lara. Even if you think that, then why the hell isn't Lara jumping for the fight right now??? He should be putting pressure on K2 through media if he really wants it. Lara was talking in the past, now he's & GGG are both available and both looking for a fight, now's his chance to jump for it like he did with Alvarez.

Ah I thinking of that other journeyman, Vanes, against Charlo.

Ndam won pretty much every round he didn't get dropped in. His chin is glass, but has great heart. And that was Quillin's best win. He probably would've lost to Rosado if the fight wasn't rigged. That's not any better than losing to Rubio.

Lol at trying to say Quillin is that much better, he probably gets KO'd by Lemieux.

Yeah I seen that. To me it came off very non-committal, just the typical fighter talk. I'm just going by what Stephen Espinoza's been telling a few reporters about Quillin telling him to exercise the rematch. Espinoza said they want to give Quillin enough time off before making it for health reasons.

[BostonGuy]

Can someone tell me again why Golovkin can't face Lara?

Wait a minute, are you now trying to say that Quillin's win over Rosado equates to Lemiuex getting KTFO by Rubio? That's not even counting the other loss to Alcine. You just can't make this stuff up.

This is why I don't waste my time debating some of you guys. The rationale to prove your point is asinine.

You're going over the top to try and prove that one B- level fighter is much better than another B- level fighter. All either guy ever had was power and hand speed.

Haymon apparently. Even though they've never tried.
