Comments Thread For: Golovkin: Ramirez Not a Big Name, Needs a Few More Fights

The risk and reward isn't worth it. Ramirez is a tough fight but he's not big enough yet. And he said he wants all the belts and only will move to 168/154 if it's a big money fight.
For being as talented as he is, the guy either needs an adviser, or if he already has one... he needs a better adviser. Cuz he sure is making some boneheaded decisions if maximum moolah is what he's after. Like it will hurt to go up to SMW. He's freaking 34, not many years left, and if there's moolah waiting at SMW, go for it. He's saying the same lameoid stuff he's been saying for years... gotta get all the MW belts. Why? It will be at least 2 years before he gets all of em. Then he's 36. Hello????
And I wouldn't be leaning on the guy if A.) He wasn't talented and B.) He didn't already say (or his people said) he'll take on anyone 154-168.
I imagine he prefers a James DeGale fight if he is going to fight at 168. He will make Jacobs, Saunders and/or Canelo before then anyway. I wouldn't be in a rush to fight Zurdo either.
