    I kind of agree with you here, but him staying north would be dependant of how his body feels, his performance at the the higher weight. Why not challenge himself?

      I will say this. V. Loma will never play the games GGG has allowed his team to play.

        People think the hate for Golovkin is because he is Eastern Euro but no other Eastern Euro acts like this.

          Who said GGG was ordinary you show how defensive you are , I think he is great but he has not proved it against elite guys , its true and the MW division is at one of its weakest periods in history .

          No body is rubbishing GGG , on the contrary people are calling for real opponents thats all .

            V. Loma came in the game trying to challenge himself to the highest level.

            V. Loma, Kovalev and a few others from his region have my upmost respect. GGG can obviously fight, but he doesn't have 10% the drive to be great in which someone like Lomachenko has.

              Nope. He is like Gary Russell Jr.

                He's too small for 168.

                Golovkin's main issue is his trainer can't stop talking. Every week Golovkin's moving to cruiserweight or fighting rigondeaux or whatever.

                Golovkin barely says anything.

                  He should challenge Andre Ward, beat him, and then knock out Floyd Mayweather. Then it will be he, not Canelo, that will be the A-side for their fight. And when all of that is said and done, perhaps he should move WAY up and beat the **** out of Sergi Kovalev as well.

                    Yet Floyd and Manny can go up many weight classes and its not just them loads have moved up , how long you followed boxing GGG is not too small for 168 thats just total BS , in todays boxing this is how the great stamp greatness by moving up to prove it .

                      moving up from 108 lbs is a lil different than moving up from 160 lbs, and he's 34 years old, barely taller than those guys and doesn't cut much weight.

                      He would just be putting on lard if he moved up.

                      canelo-golovkin needs to happen, i see all this other talk as awkward foreplay
