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.
    He's fighting a guy from 2 divisions below his, you saying Golovkin hasn't got the balls or ability to do the same?

      This all comes down to a little coward who's scared of real fights.
      Yeah, all those guys moved up because what they actually wanted was tougher fights, not bigger paydays, right?

        brooks climbing up 2 weight classes and as a result you have all called it a circus fight and said brook has next to no chance. Yet you demand GGG do the same, i would presume if he did climb 2 divisions you would all slate ward/kovalev and call it a freak show fight? Like hell you would, you would all just say GGG was exposed if he lost and you were correct about him all along.

          why cant you and others just be honest and say you want to see him climb up in weight cause you are desperate for him to lose? Or if he steps up to 168 will you, canelomaidana etc stop posting **** about him? i really doubt it

            You're talking like Golovkin moving up 2 divisions is ridiculous. But you said the winner of Golovkin-Brook leaves the ring a legend and you've been supporting that fight. You're a fucking joke, worst nuthugger on the site.

              People have been wanting him to fight Lara who is a division below and the nuthuggers like you are against that too. You don't want this hypejob to take any challenge.

                Two wrongs don't make a right.
                Why do you call him Lil G when your favorite fighter blatantly ducked him

                  brook probably would be a uk legend if he won. Noone wants him to fight lara in the real world, there is zero demand for it, you make out its fight of the century that GGG is preventing. Beating lara does about the same for GGG's cv as beating brook (lara isnt a middleweight either) but does a hell of a lot less for money and exposure, and entertainment too.

                    All those guys moved up b/c they couldn't make 160. Some like Dirrell turned pro at 168, Lucian Bute and Yordanis Despaigne turned pro at LHW.

                    Meantime, N'Dam, Lee, Macklin, Korobov are all still MW's. Geale moved up because he's washed up.

                    Ward actually moved down to 160 when he turned pro, and Hunter's on record saying the weight cut hurt him. After he nearly got KO'd vs Boone, they said that was enough and moved him up to 168. Tom Brown just gave that interview this week where he talked about being Ward's early match-maker and how they had to be careful about moving Ward down to MW.

                      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.

                      Before Mikkel Kessler started his press conference in Copenhagen to announce his comeback, an interested party had made a call to inquire about a potential fight. According to Danish tabloid Ekstrabladet, Tom Loeffler of K2 Promotions reached out to Sauerland Event, to discuss the possibility of a clash between Kessler and IBO/WBA middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin for a July date in Las Vegas. The fight would obviously have to take place at the super middleweight limit of 168-pounds, although Kessler has stated in several interviews that he might entertain a catch-weight.

                      february 2016 - golovnkin's manager approaches wba 168lb champ - fedor chudinov. Chudinov says he's not ready for golovkin.
                      WBA super middleweight champion Fedor Chudinov (14-0, 10KOs) is not a young fighter at 28-years-old, but he is now a world champion who is gaining experience. Last May Chudinov pulled off one of the big surprises of 2015 when he won a twelve round split decision over veteran Felix Sturm to capture the vacant WBA title. Sturm, based on sheer experience, was the big favorite to win the fight.



                      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.
