    A very good informative message which targets the fact that Brook isn't forcing weight on himself just like GGG isn't doing the same.

    There is a big difference. Brook is a huge welterweight who was straining to make 147. A move up to at least 154 makes him a better and stronger fighter. Proof of that is that he weighed 176 pounds 30 days before his fight with GGG without carrying much fat. GGG weighed 165 pounds 30 days before the fight. He is a smaller middleweight who make 160 with ease and has no reason to move up except to please his haters who pray for him to lose. He would be a fat light heavyweight if he weighed in at the full 175. He would be fighting much bigger men in Kovalev or Ward.

    People keep saying he's a small MW which is untrue. As most of us know Golovkin weighs around 170/171. I'm going to post fight night weights of other MW's below to show you he isn't small at all.


    Martinez - 165, 168
    Proksa - 166
    Zbik - 165
    Taylor - 166, 169, 171
    Lee - 167.5
    Pavlik - 168, 171
    Hopkins - 166, 168, 169
    Wright - 168
    Barker - 168
    Jacobs - 170
    Pirog - 170
    Quillin - 170
    Macklin - 172
    Monroe - 172
    Miranda - 173
    Korobov - 173, 174

    As you can see Golovkin isn't a small MW at all, so can we stop the nonsense.

Canelo is not a big enough fight for him? F outta here. GGG's fans hold this loser to a totally different standard. 3 months ago all you heard was look at Canelo what a joke won't go up in weight but will drag a WW to 155. GGG ain't a business man or sell out for the money. He would never drag a WW up....oh wait GGG just signed to fight Brook dragging him up to 160, still refusing to move up to 168. I got no problems with that now it's about the money he can move up whenever he feels like it and fight any crap fight in the meantime he wants. LMAO
      canelo weighs 1 pound less than GGG at 30 day weigh in. Its easier for the lighter fighter to put on a few pounds than the heavier one to lose it when hes never done it before. I dont think canelos some blockbuster opponent like everyone else does either, if mayweather started ****ing the drum at 154 for GGG then i would say yeah go and try and make the fight, risk being drained. But really what is canelo, a GBP hypejob who got humiliated by mayweather, and fortunate in the eyes of many to sc**** past lara.

        It isn't. Triple Duck is a shyt house though for calling out Ward whilst he was inactive then turning mute when he resumed his career.

          And why should canelo move up 5 pounds if GGG weighs only 1 pound more at the 30 day weigh in? That just means the gutless wonder should have no problem dropping to 155 to fight him. Canelo is the hypejob not worthy of dropping 5 pounds? Aint that the pot calling the kettle black. Canelo should give up a 5 pound advantage for a clown who flopped and did only 100k PPV's? A chump paper champ who hasn't beaten a single real opponent and is pushing 40 with the worst resume of any so called top fighter. Who has this chump beaten? LMAO

          Face it your excuses are tired. Just admit you have one bogus set of standards for GGG. Bash other fighters and then when GGG makes you look ****** for doing the same thing try and sweep it under the rug.

            I guess if Montel Griffin was concerned about his height (5 7) he would've never gone to the Olympics or beat Roy and James Toney twice at 175. GGG's height - 5 10.

                you dont know ***** about boxing

                its ok to say you dont think GGG can compete with guys at 168-175

                160 to 175 is one of the hardest jumps in boxing and very few have won titles at all 3 or 2 out of 3....GGG may not be cut from their clothe
                Who cares? The moment GGG takes a loss, you will be the first to post 20 threads of how he fooled everyone and is actually a bum You definitely care. GGG is a perfect MW, I'd rather he stay there as a unified champion till he retires.

                    I wonder why Tom didn't make a joke about Ward when they asked that question. He's been joking about Ward all week.
