Comments Thread For: Gennady Golovkin Extensive Interview on Canelo, Much More

[Reloaded]

Spat out my drink >>> Carl Froch : " ... he is a man whose wife makes the decisions for him"

Who made GGGs decision to stay away from Ward , and while he is bagging Canelo Khan he forgets his Maweather challenge who came from 130 and is smaller than Khan .

Everybody seems to have some glaring double standards going on , this was an interview where certain things cannot be asked .

Who knows what the truth is regards what offer was made and when. But the question got asked and G's manager was clear in his answer.

Regards Mayweather it always seems that Golovkin answers a question put to him rather than calling him out. Even if he can barely crawl in the ring at a weight drained 154, if he is going to make 10/20 x his normal purse I'm sure he would make an exception - as would most other fighters ... didn't Ward mention fighting Floyd at 160?

Golovkin: "You say - Lara. He is a boxer who after all his losses wants to make money, who wants to go out on HBO and thus speculates on big names. But there is a number of much more experienced guys who truly deserve a chance to go on another level."


Ducking coward confirmed.

I like Lara but lets see him climb in the ring after a Golovkin fight. He did it before the Canelo fight and made his ambitions clear. Lets see him do the same with Golovkin instead of pulling out Golovkin's name when he has a fight coming up.

The point is you should not bash one guy for something you are doing yourself and he shouldnt call out one retired guy and insult him only to duck a guy himself , now the flip side is they all do it but I find it amazing how the fans gobble up the squeeky clean BS .

Yes these interviews are not as open as you think there are somethings are not allowed to be mentioned .

I didn't take the Froch comment as disrespectful. Froch's family doesn't want him back and GGG is just pointing it out. Nothing wrong with it imo. It's just the honest truth. Froch is doing it the way it should be done. Family first. His wife put up with all the s hit and he's showing her respect. I don't doubt Froch would come back if his wife told him to come back for one huge fight. Hell, maybe not even then. He's in a good place. Dude earned his retirement



Lets be real.... Even us, we'd do anything to fight Floyd (read that as getting paid by Floyd).

How did he insult Floyd? I must have missed that.

What didn't get mentioned in this interview? Looked like a comprehensive interview to me.

After reading the article, I feel like the writer is speaking in behalf of GGG.
GGG doesn't communicate fluently and clearly as he is quoted in this article.
Heavy communication like this belongs to Malignant Nagging or Paulie.

Come on dude - smarten up. It was almost certainly done in GGG's native language and translated into English. Jeez.

I think he's talking about the Froch comment and his wife makes the decisions

Guess you are right - thanks. Not much of an insult though - just a pithy put-down. Froch couldn't keep Golovkin's name out of his mouth just after he retired and they tried to make the fight - all that was about Froch needing to be talked about to stroke his massive ego.

Lmao that Carl Froch one absolutely had me in stitches, this was a great interview indeed.
