No I'm not buying it and as a huge GGG fan I'm getting a bit sick of all the coulda woulda talk. After Brook there needs to be a big fight. Lemeiux last year was cool but 2016 has been a flop, Golovkin is 34 and needs to stop messing about.
Robby..... props, but come on..... they used that "anyone from 154-168" line for FOUR YEARS.....
..... they never once mentioned "only focusing on middleweight" until they were being questioned about that 164lb catchweight demand on Ward...... before that it was "anyone from 154-168".....
..... look, as soon as Ward started sniffing around they started puling that "only focusing on middleweight" bull****.....
Andre Ward isn’t in the picture in the near future..... it’s still in Golovkin’s best interest to stay at middleweight so that he’s in position to fight the other top middleweights and junior middleweights than it would be for him to move up to super middleweight.....

but as soon as Ward moved to 175, they started calling out Froch again.....

They are taking the fights they want, and they are passing on the rest..... just like every other fighter.
Actually, not true..... not like every other fighter..... just the timid ones.
he wants a big drama show, but doesn't want any actual drama..... the dude is a pacifist.

At the same time there wasn't any other high value options to consider - Khurtsidze/Lee/Korobov/Heiland. People would've just criticized him for those fights as much as they are the Brook fight.
All reports were still that DeGale was going to fight Jack in a unification fight. It wasn't til last week that rumors started coming out that DeGale was pricing himself out of that fight.

Like I said one time before, K2 and Golovkin wanted to fight Brook to begin with.
No way you come out of negotiations with Eubank and then lock up a fight with Brook in two days.
That's the fight that they wanted all along.
