Comments Thread For: 30 Day Weights: Gennady Golovkin 165, Kell Brook 176!

Right. I mean you can't throw a dead cat without finding a guy who's jumping 2 weight classes to fight the divisions top guy.

Hatton should have been fighting LHW, AMIRITE?

Maidana definitely should have been fighting Klitschko.

Bunch of ducking going on, eh?

Hatton and Maidana got fat.

Brook gained MUSCLE.

Brook arguably the best WW, Floyd would be hailed if he fought Brook instead of Berto.

Who knows what the future holds. Those who fight for future instead of concentrating on their present end up like Fonfara. Human beings can only take the burden of thinking about 24 hours. If you think about the past, you will get depressed. If you think about the future, you will get anxious. Live in the present.

Bull****!!! Floyd would've gotten NO credit for that. Floyd wouldn't have gotten credit for fighting Wladimir.

Yep, I want to get on whatever he's using.

If you don't know boxing well enough, then you need to look it up, beating him would make a fight with Degale very enticing.... you know, the guy that said triple asswipe WOULD'VE fought AFTER the fight with brook was signed

Whether I know him or not is not important - I'm giving myself as an example of the general public. That I watch fights 1-2x per month and I never heard of him - I guarantee that I'm not the only one. Has this guy Medina ever even fought on tv in the U.S.? you think that a fight with him is better for GGG's career than Brook - you're just wrong.If your biggest criticism is that he should be fighting someone like Medina, a no-name 168 lber, instead of Brook, then that just proves my point - that there were no legit threats at 160 lbs for GGG to fight in the fall.
And who cares about trying to make a fight with Degale enticing? GGG isn't planning on moving up to 168 now anyway. He would've for a big fight (Chavez or Froch) but prefers to fight at 160. I have no problem with a fighter preferring to stay at the weight class he wants to fight in - the same thing Bhop did for 20 defenses before moving up at age 40. We should commend fighters who do this - fight multiple times per year, go for the KO and make exciting fights - not denigrate them for failing to fight some contender outside his weight class in a fight no one cares about except you a few thousand other people.
But, I shouldn't have to tell you this. Someone like yourself shows your intelligence through use of the nickname triple asswipe. obviously you know what your talking about. LMAO. are you a teenager or do you still live in your parents basement - bc it has 2 be one of the two, right? lmfao

of course Floyd would've gotten credit if he did. Floyd got credit when he fought tough guys - Corrales, Castillo, de la Hoya, Hatton, Canelo. and rec'd criticism when he fought easy opponents, like Sharmba Mitchell, Baldomir (instead of Margarito), Robert Guererro, Andre Berto, etc - from objective point of view. Those that criticized every match or praised everything he did - who cares what they thought anyway?

He also was an opiate addict....good guy to take lessons from

If he's going to stay @ 160, he's gonna need more WW's to move up. Good luck with him getting the canelo fight, thus he will continue to claim other guys are ducking him, if he wants to make a UK fanbase, there will be a demand for him to fight Degale at some point.

Yeah, here in my basement

Wrong, when he fought Castillo, the first fight was very close and most felt he lost (myself included), then he fought him again, beat him and people still complained about the first fight. Corrales went on to take more losses, people used that as to why he wasn't that great anyway. Dlh? Oh he was sooooo out of his prime when Floyd fought him....when it was Manny it was a super dangerous dlh lol. Ricky? Nope, they complained that wasn't his best weight, complained about the ref, etc etc...so all those you mentioned you're wrong about.
