    Offering to move up 4 lbs to make the fight is not avoiding someone.

      Why would he move down vs a MW champ? They need to strip the fraud, then offer him a reasonable CW to redeem himself

          But if Golovkin is really about business and taking on cash cows then he will do whatever it takes to get in a ring with Canelo. Bottom line.

          I hope you don't suddenly change the rules for him when those negotiations take place.

          I'm fine with that, and I expect him to, but Canelo (and you) need to remember who the A side is: GGG.

          I haven't gone to many tbh, I order fights all the time but am always flaking on people to make it to live events. The last event I went to was a FNF event.

            900k PPVs at 17 pounds each? $1m international TV?

            I think Golovkin vs Froch does better numbers than that frankly. I mean I still don't see how it would generate $10-15m for GGG alone like Abel is suggesting, but he'd get more than Groves got.

              Let's not forget Froch is an old, retired fighter who does not want to make a return. So let's stop this foolery and focus on GGG's next real opponent, Kell Brook.

                I really hope they don't make that fight.

                  SOG ends the lil g hype train within 10 rounds, TKO win.

                  They were smart to avoid Ward.

                    It is simple. I will fight an old retired guy without a catch weight, but I need a catch weight to give myself the best chance to beat a great fighter named Ward! Lil g string!

                    Catch weight ***gggotry!

                    This example applies to several modern era fighters.

                    I will fight Marquez, Floyd, Many, as long as I can stay at 218 lbs.

                    But I won't fight guys bigger than me, unless they lose 30 lbs, and drop down to 6 ft 2 in, but only on Christmas Day, after they eat and feel peaceful!

                      gennady is one of the biggest wusses in boxing

                      He'll happily fight over matched opposition but is quiet whenever an opportunity for glory arises
