Question for GGG Haters

[b00g13man]

Yaaawn!!!!!

Wake me up when he decides to challenge himself.

[j0zef]

He's getting no respect now for "wanting all the belts" mantra.

If he really wanted all the belts, he wouldn't have taken the step aside money from Cotto, he wouldn't have allowed Canelo this voluntary defence.

Answer me this:
If Canelo vacates the belt and agrees to fight GGG, what will GGG do?

a. Agree to fight Canelo with no belt on the line.
b. Fight some guy for the WBC belt.

We both know which one he wants.

Actually, he's only getting 'no respect' from a small number of writers and a bunch of trolls on the board. He's getting a LOT of respect from everyone else - you can see it in his popularity figures, sponsorship deals, viewership, ticket sales etc.


If Canelo vacates the belt he'll be the WBC champion. He wont have to fight anyone for the WBC belt. Loeffler laid out what will happen then. They'll go after BJS for the last belt, they're open to Canelo with a CW, or they'll go after another good fighter such as DeGale, Ramirez or Jacobs.

See, this is what you guys don't understand.

Moving up in weight, regardless of anybody trying to say the division is a bad one, is a great achievement already. You step out of your comfort zone, fighting bigger guys, showing that your skills transcends weight.

Moving up to 168 would be a lot better than this fake "I want all the belts" garbage him and his team is spewing.

I think we all agree in what you say.

His resume is partly his fault. You can't blame him for not having Martinez, canelo or cotto on his resume. But you can blame him some for not having ward and lara.

You can also criticize the willingness to go to 168 for chavez, froch and Ramirez, but only 164 for Ward. You can criticize him when he say I can go to 168 for Ramirez then come back to 160 when he claims "unification" is the goal when tougher 168lb fights are discussed.

Like it or not, Ramirez, Chavez and Froch would be bigger fights money wise than Ward. He's not in a hurry to move up to 168. If he offered ward 164 it would be fair since he's not forced to fight Ward. Ward is not his mandatory. And they would meet in the middle. Ward was going down to 160 for Mayweather right? then why don't come down to 160 for GGG? why fight at 168? For some reason you expected GGG to go directly to 168 and face Ward, while Ward is having tune ups to face Kovalev.

And about Lara... my god, Lara is a twitter warrior. He would get smashed so badly in a fight with GGG, it's like Khan facing Canelo.

Wake me up when Lara fights a middleweight.

[just the facts]

If GGG stays at MW, eventually collects all the belts, breaks the defense record, and maintains a record knockout percentage will he go down in history as one of the greatest MWs ever?

I've noticed that many critics of GGG paint themselves as boxing realists, so surely you guys would acknowledge that this is the case?

He better hurry the **** up. He's kicking 35 in the arse and hasn't made significant progress yet

By the end of 2016 he'll be unified MW champion and maybe in 2017 BJS will grow some balls and fight him. Yeah, the same BJS that told Eubank jr: "GGG would beat you and me in the same night".

[Chuckguy]

Why would Ward think he is the B-side to GGG?? I never got that argument..there really is no A or B side there at all.its a 50/50 type of fight period..but hey we are beyond that now so no need even discussing that any further

Larry GGG sells out arenas all over the us Andre ward can't even sell out an arena in his hometown!
GGG is fighting a bum this weekend and he is all over the screen
I've seen him in ESPN, fox sports, ktla news, cnn, Fox News, and a few others.
When has Andre ward gotten any of that attention?NEVER!

[SilverMiles]

People tend to hate fighters that pose a threat to their favorite fighter.

[Mr.Fantastic]

His skin is way too light...there I cleared it up for you...

Pretty much. Some of the GGG hate can be justified but a lot of these dudes get threatened when someone of another color start doing great/good things. Instead of props for the good stuff, they **** on it.

[Larry the boss]

Wade is a mandatory to one of his belts, he didn't choose him.

It's easy for you guys to say he should move up. The fact is that SMW is a bad division to start with right now, and on top of that the elite in SMW are all with Haymon.

We can hope that Wade gives opportunity for other Haymon fighters to fight on HBO, but so far, it's been very difficult. Only people who have been able to work it out are no-names or bona-fide superstars.

I understand the mandatory stuff..but i think my question still remains..are ya'll happy to keep watching the level of fighters he is facing?? if so fine..enjoy
