    I've never even seen him fight. He probably is ****, but he's a mandatory opponent.


    Does Gennady have to fight him to keep his IBF belt, yes or no?

    Did Golovkin attempt to unify with Saunders, yes or no?

      Wins over Johnson and Trinidad trump anything GGG's ever done.

        Who else is he suppose to fight in the meantime while he waits for Canelo to man up?
        He did not get turned down by Cotto & Canelo. He agreed not to fight them.

          I guess one has no choice BUT to agree once an opponent refuses to fight you. What else can you do? Attack them and make them fight you back!?

            Yes and Yes, but garbage is garbage. I get it that he's a mandatory, but my point is his entire career is filled with this caliber of fighter. As I stated before GGG is being steered to slowly for his age, in my opinion. I truly could care less about a Saunders fight, honeslty. He beat Lee (who isn't very good) and Eubank (who beat no one). Give me Degale, Lara, Canelo, Ward and Jacobs.

              Glenn Johnson was a nobody at 160 and Trinidad was a blown up ww.......Martin Murray and Geale beat both easily

                That's fine, I want those fights too. I honestly think he beats them all with Ward being the toughest fight obviously, but that fight isn't happening because Ward is now at 175.

                K2 expressed interest in fighting Chunky, and I think he has the balls to fight Golovkin. The guy has been going all over the place and fighting good names, I think he will fight Golovkin.

                It's not Gennadys fault he couldn't get Strum, Martinez, Cotto, Quacklin in the ring. You would need to point a gun to their head.


                I mean, Quillin priced himself out. 10 million dollars? FOH.

                  Compared to some other fighters, he's not getting any hate. He deserves more criticism for fighting who he's fighting. If anything, he's hyped more than he's hated.

                    Can't you just be honest about this. He has choices despite not getting the Canelo fight.
                    Oh come on man, everything I said is truthful and very straightforward. Obviously if a big fight like Froch came around they could try and work out some step aside deal with Wade/Haymon. There is no Froch type fight available now is there? So what are they going to do, pay 500k or whatever to Haymon to step aside so they can fight another Wade equivalent?

                    Like I said, it's the exact same reason Kovalev had to fight Nadjib Mohammedi and Hopkins had to fight Karo Murat. It's an IBF mandatory, it's that simple. Golovkin is only in this situation because Canelo & Saunders said no.
