This is all about Golovkin not being man enough to move up

[Madison Boxing]

You should know that ggg didnt start his career at 34... lifetime mw...

so what, he wasnt some young guy climbing through the weights. he makes middleweight easy so thats why he fights at middleweight, why that is such a terrible thing i dont know?

In about a year this old mans reflexes are going to slip and someone is going to spark him cold -- hopefully on HBO fighting a journeyman.

Golovkin's made offers to move up to 168lbs 4x already, each time the SMW turned him down.


November 2012 - Golovkin offers Edwin Rodriguez & Thomas Oosthuizen.
La Bomba was undefeated and turned down $500k, twice his highest payday at that point. Oosthuizen asked for more money than was available.

May 2014 - In addition to negotiating with Chavez Jr for a fight at 168, Loeffler was also negotiating with Kessler for a fight at 168. But Kessler was asking for $4million.

February 2016 - Golovnkin's manager approaches WBA 168lb champ - Fedor Chudinov. Chudinov says he's not ready for Golovkin.

His team is currently having discussions with TR for a Rameriz fight next year. Loeffler and Sanchez are on record saying they'd accept the DeGale fight.

People need to start jumping on the opponents to take the damn fight.

I didnt say it was terrible, if he wants to be a lifetime mw thats on him, just dont use the age excuse cuz most fighters he fought at amateur are fighting at higher weights...

yeah was more directing that at everyone, cause all i hear every ****ing day on here is 'GGG a 1 division coward' 'GGG hiding at middleweight' 'real fighters step up in weight'

[mick1303]

noones demanding he move up in weight in the real world, why you clowns on here are so obsessed with a 34 year old moving up in weight i dont know.

They are obsessed because they want him out of the way. So that their favorite fighters will have a possibility to claim middleweight. After that middleweight will cease to be "weak division".

nope wrong, golovkin is ducking every single dangerous fighter there is, canelo, cotto, ward, lara, saunders, jacobs, ramirez, eubank jr, degale, jack, froch (when he was active). Thats what ive been told by knowledgeable and objective posters such as canelomaidana, isaac clarke and justthefacts

[mick1303]

Canelo isnt 35 like you know who, he has plenty of time to move up, he should move up when his body tells him to move up and not rush his career just cuz of one fight, if ggg wants this fight so bad he should fight at wathever weight canelo fights, period... weight should not be an excuse after 4 years parroting anyone from 154 to 168...

But the thing is - he doesn't anymore. He got what he wanted from Canelo already - WBC belt. He can earn money elsewhere. I'm not sure that at this point in time Canelo still the moneymaker he used to be. Such coward move inevitably leads to the loss of popularity. And he never had Mayweather notoriety such that ppl would tune in just to see him lose. They will just stop caring about his fights.

yeah, said it before only reason they want him to go up in weight is so he fights people who arent his size and his more of a chance of losing. It wont end if he goes up to 168, they will demand he go up to 175. Ive genuinely seen posters on here seriously saying hes got to fight the ward/kovalev winner at 175 to prove himself.

Making up lies.


Please tell me again how the winner of Golovkin-Brook leaves the ring a legend.
