Mayweather was handed a chance against Hernandez for the 130 lineal title

[CaneloMaidana]

Well considering ggg is a foreigner and had a real long amatuer background and competed in several olympics isn't it obvious he would start his pro career later on? Also now that he's in the u.s he doesn't exactly have the best promoter (k2) while froid did at the time (top rank)

Golovkin turned pro a year older than Spence and are demanding Spence fight Algieri and better already. The truth is Golovkin is a princess.

I see people here talking nonsense about Golovkin being handled titles.

Using that logic, I want to know what did Floyd Mayweather jr do to get a chance for the lineal 130 lb title against Hernandez. At that point Floyd had beaten all bums with no record. He was 17-0 and ALL were bums. But real bums. Look at their records. And don't talk to me about him looking special in fights cuz so does GGG. And don't talk to me about having a great amateur career with a medal at the olympics cuz do so did GGG.

And then some of you ****** Mayweather fans have the balls to say that Floyd wasn't handled anything... that he had a rough path. Then what about GGG? Tell me another joke please you ignorant fools!

In the USA we take care of our kind, whether you're from Brownsville NY, Philly, Michigan, LA. If you represented the Olympics and were robbed a Gold medal aside from a national golden gloves champ in 3 different weight divisions and being a teen sparring to help Whitaker's game, and part of the Mayweather family brand, then yeah sure Money May deserves a chance to show us his greatness as a pro.

How that registers with a late Kazakh and his merits means nothing when a guy called Rigo surpasses them non special effects but polictics praise Euro fighters more than those on the American continent. Sorry if I don't feel like including Argentina in the mix. American fighters are on a whole different level.

Surely you can see that there is a difference between getting a title shot and winning it, and getting given a title without having to fight for it because the other guy vacated?

How many times can someone take Ls in their own threads before realising that they should maybe stop making em?

****ing ******.

[Larry the boss]

Mayweather was 21 years old. GGG will be 34 in 2 weeks.

You don't see the difference?

lol.....hilarious aint it

[Larry the boss]

Ask Larry who created a thread about GGG being handled another title.....

I dont recall Mayweather ever getting a vacant title...lol

[Larry the boss]

GGG wants to fight Canelo, *******. It's Canelo who's running from GGG. Or what? do you agree with Canelo 155 bull****? If they give GGG the MW title is not because he didn't fight, it's because Canelo didn't fight...

GGG wants the lineal title since 2008 at least. All the lineal champions ran away from him. At least Martinez had the balls to say it. GGG is off the charts and he wasn't a big name so he was ducked.

GGG needs to bend in order to get the big fights just like other fighters did

It makes sense to him..lol

Floyd beat Hernandez in the ring, GGG was elevated to champ outside of it. No comparison.

[-Kev-]

When people say he was handed a title, they mean look at who he fought in Milton Nunez I think, to win the interim, and then beat Nilson Tapia to become full champ, or was it vice versa, I do not know. Floyd beat the WBC/Lineal 130 champion to become the champion.

Other examples of being handed titles is Cotto vs Jennings. It's not about what you did to get an opportunity to get a crack at the best at the division. If Ward beats Kovalev, the best at 175, would you say he was handed the titles because he had not beaten any top 10 LHW's prior to that? I would not say that, and surely I don't think any one else would.

At this point GGG has proven that he is the best at MW and although at first he was handed the title, he has proved that he would have taken those titles from the title holders anyway. But yeah Mayweather beating Hernandez was not taking candy from a baby, like GGG vs Tapia or Nunez, too lazy to check, and don't care, those guys were irrelevant then and still are, and will always be. GGG is okay now, no one should be accusing him of being a fake champ.
