Once again, GGG critics want to base all they want to know & all they'll ever know about GGG based off of his 1st ppv event. I'm sure that's totally logical. You know, when he debuted his ppv event, he fought in America against another non-American. He's had to build his name up by himself without the help of being on FMJ's undercards. And since GGG will be ruling for the next couple years, his fanbase will only grow from here. Sure, belts don't sell ppv's...but the fans will want to know how good this champ is. You can't deny that in today's boxing forums, GGG is the most talked-about boxer right now. But no, yea, no, maybe, you're right that we should base everything we need to know about GGG's drawing power based off of his 1st ppv event. Yea, let's do something silly like that...

You can't have it both ways brah. If you wanna pretend like you're the big draw in the sport and that you won't fight certain guys (Lara, Ward) coz they aren't draws, then be prepared to be judged by those standards.
You can't act like a big shot and then cry again when we judge you by big shot standards.Comment

Helloooooooo, can anyone explain to me how nobody in the media killed Floyd for saying that Triple G should move up to 175 lbs and fight Undefeated Andre Ward when that feat would top anything on Floyd's resume?
If Floyd hasn't moved up two divisions before to fight someone of Ward's caliber...how can he ask someone else to do it, especially a guy he wouldn't fight at 154 which was the the division Floyd was champ in?

Brah, neither can the critics. Ho cuz, Ward himself went block the GGG bout from happening when he went sign that HBO contract...that one cannot be denied. I've already made this argument about Ward already...if he truly wanted the GGG fight, he could have stayed at 168...you can't tell me he cleaned out the division when Bute & DeGale have been calling him out for years now....go check DeGale's twitter page. And Lara is all talk...even his promoter admitted they never tried to contact K2 in good faith to make that bout possible. I'm not one of those GGG trolls that keep trying to say that Lara & Ward aren't big enough draws to get the fight. What I'm saying is that these guys could have taken steps a long time ago to all but ensure the bout happening. Instead, look at Lara's last 3 fights: 3 journeyman north of 35 years old. And look at all the opponents GGG critics want him to fight: they say Canelo, they say Jacobs, they say Ward, they say Lara, etc, etc, etc. What I'm saying as a boxing fan is that all these suggestions should get in line. If GGG wasn't such a big draw, then why is everyone either running scared or calling him out to generate buzz for themselves (i.e., Kell Brook)? What I try to do when critics refuse to see how good GGG is, I turn their argument right back on them...because, often, when criticizing GGG, their arguments are double-edged swords. Don't play me off like a fanboy. I know my boxing. Everyone get in line. GGG did it the right way by establishing his championship status through the rankings...which is pretty much how every boxer should do it. Yet, all of a sudden, when the guy starts get shine, everyone wants to hate him...not quite understanding that.Comment

Want to know whats more ironic than that rubbish you posted ?
You want nothing more than Kovalev to beat Ward, because if Ward beats the bigger and better Kovalev, then your cool story bro about Golovkin beating Ward will start to look real shabby..... won't it?
The problem is, if Kovalev beats Ward, then he actually will eclipse Golovkin's entire career in 1 fight..... as well as having beaten a guy that Golovkin was too shicken to face LMAOComment
