Comments Thread For: Golovkin-Wade Title Fight Confirmed For April 23 At The Forum

[Cinci Champ]

The kid's only had 3 scheduled 10rd fights. And one of those was against a cat that was 10-11-2. Any organization that makes it "mandatory" for their champion fight a guy like this. Isn't an organization who's belt is worth having.

ya but ggg gas sold his fans hook line sinker that 160 belts is all he cares about even tho he continues not to force purse bids for these very belts and takes money instead. i think people are starting to realize the bs tho. the whole chase those who dont want to fight him and say no to those who are willing to fight him and in the mean time fight nobodies that are his mandos and talk about how everyone is scared of him. its all a big strategy its obvious and i think people are starting to get it

People still blind to GGG hype train

He's fighting Wade but won't fight Lara or Ward. Willing to fight tiny Cotto, undersized Canelo. Then we act like Danny Jacobs doesn't even exist. Heck fight Quillen, Korobov, Lee would be better options due to one has a title and others recognized MW names. Really didn't want to fight Froch but will move up for Degeale and Chavez.

I suppose it is better to be active as opposed to inactive. Hanging around 160 is gonna damage GGG's legacy long term, dude ain't getting any younger. He could move up and potentially beat DeGale, Ward and Kovalev not that I believe he'd defeat the latter two.

I would much rather have seen GGG face a live body at 168 and I don't mean a weight drained 51 year old geriatric, that shyt will be unforgivable. No doubt GG fans will find some justification.

As I was saying...

Great fight

[daggum]

wade's a young undefeated lion with a slick style. he will probably beat ggg and yet you are hating on ggg for taking this tough fight when he could just fight a bum like khan and wait for canelo?

[aboutfkntime]

Canelo didn't want it,Billy Joe didn't want it,so there goes the options of unifying. Wade is the only logical option appart from those two,or golovkin loses the ibf belt. Not saying this is a good or great fight,just a necessary one towards unifying the division.

Nah it's bull****, Wade is just a substitute for another guy who aint that good either.

[SilverMiles]

Lara has been calling him out. He also called him out Jan 27th...Wade and Lara have the same manager so if K2 really wanted the fight I'm sure they could've made something happen. It's not like they have to go to one manager and make a deal then to another manager and get the deal approved. But I have a feeling K2 and Haymon talked about Lara and Jacobs happening this year if the Canelo bout doesn't come thru.

Stop being a troll, you're not very good at it. Lara doesn't want to fight GGG, plain and simple.

The IBF are unbelievably ****. Stripping Fury, now this ****.

It's like they want the world to regard them as second-rate.

Well, they got my vote.
