Comments Thread For: Golovkin-Ramirez Possible If GGG's Middleweight Options Vanish

[PittyPat]

168 is kinda dead these days after Froch retired, Bute moved up, Pavlik and Taylor retiring, that Golovkin going up would improve the division. But I'd rather he stay and keep 160 on its toes, sending those who don't want to fight him, scurrying up to 168.

So pretty much his next fight?

[dirty fingers]

I wouldn't mind seeing Ramirez receive a beating. It would put another turd in Bob Arum's punchbowl.

Hopefully at 164 lbs

That's more of a Ward and Canelo tactic.

With Canelo it would be 161. Ward would expect Ramirez to come down to 160 for him.

168 and then 175 hopefully

Canelo is a good money fight but not a good fight. Canelo's team saw how Lemule got whipped by GGG and they know Canelo is the same size and same style but with less power. Saunders is nothing GGG crushes Saunders. The good fights for GGG are at 168 with Gilberto Ramirez and Callum Smith, Degale, Uzcatgui. The only super fight is GGG vs Kovalev.

Vanish? How can it vanish if y'all can go to a purse bid, force the champ to vacate the belt and then fight the next guy in line? Belts are your priority, right ggg?

He doesn't need to fight the next guy, if Canelo won't start negotiating 15 days after Khan, he gets stripped and GGG is full champ with a clear plate

Sweet, so his mw aspirations/options won't vanish. I'm glad he's taking all the belts instead of focusing on one or two guys

Saunders winning the WBO belt ****ed everything up. Lee was going to fight GGG this year, and Canelo looks like he might vacate so GGG would have all the belts and finally move up.

It's great to see he wants all the belts still. I hope he gets the WBC/WBO belts soon.

Lol yeah its either the Ward way or the cry to the media and pretend you want the fight but not be willing to make some sacrifices.
