Comments Thread For: Avtandil Khurtsidze Wants Shot at Gennady Golovkin, Says DiBella

[bballchump11]

They tried to make Khurtsidze vs Monroe. I don't think Golovkin is special just protected.

Monroe was smart to avoid that fight. Maybe he can get Rosado to fight him.

Geez, don't put your shoulder outta joint patting yourself on the back. Newsflash: none of we fans get to decide. Apparently that's what fighters/managers/promoters are for. We're just the schmucks who buy tix and complain about PPV prices. But really, GGG needs an Avtandil Khurtsidze, a full blown pressure fighter. Cuz as long as it lasts, it will be one of the most action style fights GGG has had in a while. Unless you just want more easy blowouts for the guy.

Exactly. Action fight. Not 1 1/2 round one-sided blowout.

I just see this being too easy for GGG. He can either keep him at bay with his jab or he'll just bomb him out on the way in. Like I said, this reminds me of Fraizer vs Foreman. The short swarmer will try to get inside on the power puncher and fall into the trap.

Tureano Johnson would be even more vulnerable.

Other way around, Monroe wanted it, Khurtsidze pulled out. Monroe turned down Derevyanchenko there after.

Monroe is a bad fight for Khurtsidze, especially now that Khurtsidze is the WBO #1.

Fight Chavez. He'll come in at 166 and be over. Then GGG can crumble him in 2 rounds with body shots. Then Chavez will be eliminated from any possible TV fights for good. I would like to see that.

Khurtsidze really impressed me in his last bout. Don't think he can trouble GGG much but dude can box for a guy who is like 5' 4''. I'd love to see him fight someone like Lemieux.

Oh nevermind then. Like I said, they should try Rosado then. He never turns a fight down

[The D3vil]

Yeah boy!

When I saw his fight against Douglas, I thought, "Get this dude in the ring with GGG, stat!!!"

This is gonna be like Hawk Jackson vs. Mike McCallum.

Where did you hear that? I would be very happy to know they're looking for an opponent on that level. He's a fighter ready to be moved that quick.

man this slow Russian plodder would get decapitated by GGG .

Monroe is a bad fight for Khurtsidze, but Derveyanchenko is a bad fight for Monroe. I'm really disappointed in Deveryanchenko and Khytrov's last two fights. DiBella's letting me down.
