Comments Thread For: Gilberto Ramirez Shakes Head, Says Golovkin Being a Hypocrite

[boxingitis]

Don't be a casual fanboy, get the weights right. Canelo hasn't fought at 160 before so he isn't a true middleweight.

Anything above 154 and below 160 is middleweight.

Gilberto needs to shut up. Brook will eventually fight at light middleweight or full on middle and is much bigger than Khan.

And Gilberto fought 5'9 Abraham in his last fight who could be a middleweight himself. Gilberto will have to move up to 175 with his large frame soon, and he'll suck up there as he has little power!!

I agree, Gilberto needs to shut up...he hasn't prove anything except praises from his "ducker" promoter Uncle Bob

It's strange how people didn't have a problem with Zurdo fighting Britsch a couple of months ago when i was saying how there fight shouldn't even be sanctioned. But as soon as he brings up GGG now suddenly Britisch is as bad as I've been saying.

Nothing was stopping Arum from sending an offer for GGG to fight Ramirez except Arum. All he did was talk about GGG and actually send a contract for the #120 MW in the world Dominik Britsch.
Say "GGG" chose Dominik Britsch.

First this guy trashes countryman Canelo and now he trashes GGG. He is defending his title against an opponent far less worthy of a title shot than Brook is. GGG is trying to unify 160 and he is one belt away from succeeding. Gilberto hasn't tried to fight any of the other 168 pound champs. It seems to me he is the trash talking hypocrite.

Actually, what's funny is you saying "your lack of boxing knowledge" after you said that Ramirez beat up on a 160lber, who has been at 168 for 7 years and a champion for 4 of those years.

Really bizarre how shameless some of you guys are. It's getting boring for me though and you're clearly out of ammo so I'm going to let you stew in your own embarrassment.

I'm surprised you lasted this long. I realized a while back that most people here don't want to have an objective convo. How you've been able to deal with the deflection and juvenile insults is beyond me.....your patience is commendable!

gilbert why dont you shut the **** up, hardly a big star attraction are you, beat 'king' arthur abraham who is shot and was never that great anyway. Whqt clown are you defending your belt against?

"Actually, it is ****** to think you know more about his body and ideal weight than he, his coaches, his management, etc does. The guy has had plenty of time to evaluate himself at both weights. But, that wasn't even the initial statement, now was it? It was that Ramirez supposedly fought a middleweight in Abraham. Abraham who has been 168 for years and had reasonable success there. Save some face and give it up."

What's funny is your lack of boxing knowledge. Abraham moved up to 168 to fight in the super 6 tournament then never moved back down to 160. My argument would be for him to have stayed at 160 after the super 6. He was a NIGHTMARE MIDDEWEIGHT

Please don't EVER complain about Chad Dawson vs Ward. Chad called for it and sword up and down as did his trainer that they felt better than ever before.

Thus dude has more size and weight on GGG than GGG on Brook

Golovkin is the biggest rodent to ever step in a boxing ring. He's Adonis Stevenson with racists to protect him.

The GGG haters will keep parroting the bs talking points, and morons like Zurdo and Ward will complain about GGG fighting smaller guys while at the same time trying to fight the smaller GGG.

Zurdo looks like a damn LHW in the ring, and next to GGG you can see a huge size difference.

If I'm GGG I tell Zurdo to kick rocks and make his name somewhere else.

[nycsmooth]

I guess it will be a year b4 Ramirez fights GGG after his hand is better... he'll probably take a warm-up GGG will fight again so the fight will happen maybe mid 2017...

Rofl. That's an absolute lie. His trainer said that Chad looked awful, and that was the last time they worked with each other.

weight KILLED HIM. His strength coach said it would be easy to make it..he miscalculated...but I believe the methods they used to make it were all wrong...we got to camp on July 7 and he weighed 182...5 weeks later he hadGAINED TWO POUNDS, weighed 184...

and the night before the weigh in he weighed 175...meaning after 9 weeks of training he only lost 7 pounds and still had to lose seven more in around 20 hours.

So yeah, he said he would go down to 168, and when he tried to negotiate it, Ward said no. So Dawson was stuck and had to do make 168. He literally screwed up his career with that one move. It was his fault, but lets not pretend Dawson was in top shape for that fight.
