Comments Thread For: Golovkin Focuses on Middleweight Legacy, Canelo in Rearview

where did 16 defenses come from?

only lineal and full alphabet title defenses count.....they be reaching

it is sloppy/inaccurate journalism

the disappointing fact is, Jake knows.....

..... if we are going to hold people accountable for their words/actions, let's start with the journo's.

And btw, " lineal " doesn't count either.

We should be counting from when Golovkin held the sole WBA championship, so Rosado onwards, so 11 defences.

Still not sure what the point of the exercise is though. As with Hopkins, most of the defences are fairly pointless.. nothing but a number.

Holding every title in the division is impressive, because its extremely difficult to achieve. When was the last Undisputed champion, 2006? A decade ago. He should be striving to achieve that, defend a couple of times if he wants to, then test the waters at 168 unless middleweight heats up during that time.

Uh, Geale I think, 6 defences..... is that right?

Disappointing to see Jakebert parating Tom Loeffler's BS title defense marketing gimmick. Last thing we need is to further legitimize WBA's belt racketeering.

outstanding post !

[aboutfkntime]

he has 3x more belts than last year..... That's a pretty productive year

Who did he beat ?

right ^^

So..... Ward, despite having already proved that he is elite, must beat Kovalev/etc in order to be relevant..... and yet lil'G only has to collect a couple of vacant belts in order to be relevant..... right?

stfu LMAO

[aboutfkntime]

Considering at the time when Geale was Super he literally gave up the title rather than fight GGG, it was clear even then GGG was the top WBA fighter.

It's not like now where GGG is super and Jacobs is regular, but it's Jacobs who wants nothing to do with GGG using money excuse.

Jacobs knows if he beat GGG he'd be able to make big money, but he wants to wait GGG out.

FACT: you cannot give Jacobs any credit whatsoever for making legitimate title defences..... because Golovkin is the REAL WBA champ.

What, so him and lil'G are BOTH going to start racking up WBA middleweight defences..... AT THE SAME TIME?

FACT: lilG's " defences " when he was the WBA interim "champ"..... are as legitimate as Jacobs "defences" are now..... 0.

Jake should have known better, not sure what's up there..... I saw similar stuff from the journo's over Pac.

No, he has 3x more belts than last year, prospects of a major ppv bout in the UK, tons more notoriety and exposure from exposing boxings biggest star as scared of him. That's a pretty productive year

Shine that turd boy, you got future in PR

Just showing you what it's like in the real world. Like if you check page 1, every other thread is about Ggg. You seen that Ggg vs Ward Google searches graph? It's hilarious

More Google searches with 97K ppv, no major fights in hius career, begging for some and Ward is about to have one more with Kova that will definitely do better than 97K. But yeah keep bragging about google searches those are what pay the bills.

I doubt it, I bet Glaser has Ward Kov Ppv at well under 97k.
