    Comments Thread For: Roach: Don't Blame Golovkin, Nobody at 160 Will Fight Him!

    Hall of Fame trainer Freddie Roach is not on board with the critics who are bashing IBO/IBF/WBA/WBC middleweight champion Gennady 'GGG' Golovkin (35-0, 32KOs) for his acceptance of a title defense against Kell Brook (36-0, 25KOs), who holds the IBF welterweight crown.

      Radio is his first name. Rahim is not his real last name.

        Not Golovkin's fault, but he could have picked someone from 154 like Lara or Khurtszide from 160

          The WBA needs to force Jacobs to a mandatory bout with Golovkin. That is the most direct first step. If Jacobs won't go for it, then strip him of the title and give it to someone with the gonads to actually fight.

              It's pathetic how many have steered away from fighting him, no doubt.

              However, he has to find his own challenges. Anybody at 168 looks more challenging than Brook. I just think the fight is a waste of time. I wasn't for him moving up either but to get a real fight, I think he'll have to. It's a sad commentary, but this is the hand he's been dealt. So I think moving up and fighting the bigger boys will build up his name and show people that he will fight the best even if those at his current weight run from him.

                Really!? I thought it's the other way around.. Radio seems odd for a real name though..

                  Golovkin has my full respect. He is one of the most active fighters we have and is willing to fight every middleweight. He's been ****ed around a lot this last year and I hope he gets back to his usual routine of fighting 3 to 4 times a year. Huge respect!
