Lil G fighting his 3rd prospect in 4 fights

Top 10 according to who? And those 3 lineal champions in a row who allegedly ducked lil g all had bigger more lucrative fish to fry and did exactly that.
And they were all smaller middleweights who were A-sides and who had every right to want concessions.
If Golovkin really wanted those fights, he'd have made them.
But there is a whole laundry list of younger fighters who have better resumes than GGG.
Look at the two welters fighting tonite.
Look at the names on their resumes.
Both men over 6 years younger than Golovkin.
Porter has Malignaggi, Broner, Brook, Alexander and one or two other world class or near world class guys.
Thurman has Collazo, Guerrero, Soto Karass, Chavez, Quintana, and Zavak as well as others.
Where are the names on Golovkin's resume that equal this?
Ishida? Stevens?

Hey listen, objective GGG fans aren't arguing that GGG's resume is awesome.
Fact is, it isn't.
But, he has fought the top 10 opposition and mandatories in his weight class that are willing to get in to the ring with him. All the fighters demanding MORE than just career high paydays to fight him certainly think more of him than you do.
Fact is, you named Thurman and Porter. I don't recall numerous stories of catchweights and people 'ducking' Thurman and Porter. GGG is a victim of his own skillset. Who wants to sign on for a potential career altering trucking?
As for Liam Smith being a 'bigger fish to fry'....careful, your bias is showing...
he even put brook on porter's resume
he uhhh, lost bruhComment

GGG is trying to get where Canelo is.
GGG is the B side to Alvarez just like Hopkins was against Oscar...the difference being,Hopkins is a risk taker.
Golovkin is supposed to be a killer but he can't take a risk against CANELO?
At least Canelo had the balls to fight Lara.Comment

He can and will ALWAYS outsell GGG.
Alvarez in in the driver's seat...he'd be a fool to let some 97k flop selling OLD can crusher tell him when to fight.Comment

Yup, that makes sense. What a lottery to win, I hope someday I too can be as lucky.
At least Mayweather had the cajones to pick Alvarez, which even despite the 152 catchweight I give him a ton of credit for. Alvarez on the other hand...Last edited by DJ_Quaaludes; 06-25-2016, 11:30 AM.Comment

Canelo is already paid...plus he's almost a decade younger.
