Comments Thread For: Hearn Sees Upset: Golovkin Never Boxed an Elite Level Fighter!

[SeekDaGreat]

LOL. Now Brook is am elite level fighter.

Holy **** I've heard it all.

Brook bests Porter it isn't crap. But Thurman does and it's a huge win. The ****.

It was a huge win for Brook also. After that fight people rated Brook in the welterweight division. It was also Thruman's best win in the welterweight division. Nobody called either fighter elite after those fights in the welterweight division. The Thruman-Porter fight was talked about so much because it was the best fight in the welterweight division this year.

This, the double standards are insane.

Thurman has a better resume than Brook

Its not just one win, he has multiple wins over decent comp level Guerrero, Chaves, Collazo, Karass, Diaz, Bundu.

All Brook has is Porter....

Thurman has faced a variety of styles, gone through hell and put in the ground work.

Brook has avoided a number of fighters, and 99.9% of his resume consists of bums.

Brook is not elite..one win doesn't make you elite, Brook never proved himself at 147....we still don't know how he would have coped with the many different styles.

Thurman actually went through the gauntlet

Sad part is Brook would be the most accomplished fighter Golovkin has ever fought. And Brook is not even that accomplished of a welter tbh.

Both GGG and brook are hype jobs at the end of the day.

An amazing amateur career followed by a great pro career, yet G is 34 years old and still has never fought an elite opponent. And Brook sure hasn't proved he is elite. Somehow every other top fighter has at least one good name on their record except for G. It has become more than obvious that it is G who refuses to fight the best and not the other way around. His fans claim he was willing to fight Ward despite Loeffler straight saying he wouldn't! He wouldn't agree to fighting Froch at 168 despite begging for that fight for years. Lara is the most accomplished SWW or MW out there right now. Canelo was willing to fight, just not at 160. Which one would think wouldn't be a problem since G has said for years how he will fight anyone from 154-168. And then he refuses to fight the biggest money fight possible. Literally. Yet he makes deals with Wade and Brook in a single day! Golovkin was a rising star casual fans wanted to see. Not anymore though. They have seen him beat enough tomato cans. Everyone saw Butterbean do the same thing. Now he is facing someone two divisions lower and isn't even the most proven fighter at WW! If you are a p4p fighter there is no way you should be fighting someone two divisions lower who isn't even the best in that division. Yet his fans will justify anything he does. Real fans of boxing want to see the best fight the best. And that is one thing Golovkin has literally never done. Everytime it is everyone else's fault. Never mind Jacobs and a plethora of fighters at 154. Also some great match-ups at 168. And yet we are stuck with him fighting the likes of Rubio and Wade. He has held a belt for five years and still hasn't fought an elite fighter. There is no excuse for that. None.

Ah we see the same mistake being made here, people trying to talk down Golovkin's opponents. Former world champions and current champions in Daniel Geale, Lemieux and Rubio were made to look ordinary, such is the skill of GGG. Martin Murray? The only man to stop him was GGG. Wade was undefeated but made to look amateur. Against other opponents his foes are elite. Against GGG they are bums lol. I laugh at the term 'bum' used by keyboard warriors. GGG can beat them all but only a welterweight in Brook was willing to take the challenge. Shame on Canelo, Eubank and Saunders.

Another hater, with holes in their analysis. I know you don't want to like GGG, or belittle his career or opponents. But you don't get given the WBA, WBC, IBF & IBO titles. The fact of the matter is the 'elite' in your eyes don't want to take an L, while true warriors in Geale, Lemieux, Rubio etc have taken the challenge. Wade was an IBF MANDATORY defense. You knew that, the forum users knew it. Stop with that smack talk. Brook took the millions of dollars and took the challenge, props to Brook for having balls and being nuts. Saunders, Canelo, shame shame shame. cowards. Eubank, when Daddy stops wiping his bum we might see him fight the likes of GGG.

Nice try Eddie. I'm still going to stream it.

GGG is no fool. He accepted this huge challenge because he knows history has shown that undefeated welterweight champions who challenge Middleweight champions have risen to the occasion and been destined for greatness. GGG will not get caught off guard like Gene Fullmer did when Sugar Ray Robinson moved up and KO'd him for the middleweight belt. This is a throwback fight. Fraud Pedcheater Jr and Andre "The Cow" Ward fans need to sit this one out and spend their nickels and dimes on Air Jordans and 40 inch rims. You know, the important things in life...and leave this fight to BOXING FANS.

Bruh you make me laugh at some of your post but this one was uncalled for. Racism shouldn't be done anywhere and especially on here. I'm a Black man and I'm a boxing fan. I'm a fan of GGG and many others who aren't Black. I'm a fan of my African American fighting brothers as well. Too much bs going in America right now and you're making racist comments about my fellow AA ppl. Grow up and smarten up. Ignorance has no color. I hope your parents didn't teach you your HATEFUL ways. HATE is taught!
