    GGG HAS to stop doing interviews in english (some perspective)

    The one big problem with GGG and a lot of posters on here who attack him for eating breakfast and tying his shoes the wrong way, is that almost EVERYTHING gets lost in translation. Seriously.

    I understand that GGG's team wants him to be the next Pac, and to connect with the American audience, he has to speak english. But, I think interviews with GGG are not to be taken seriously unless they are in his native Kazakh language or Russian, or German. (whatever languages he speaks).

    Basically, he can't truly express himself in english. The Gennady who speaks in english interviews is NOT really Gennady Golovkin, it's a fake. Inside of his head he thinks in Kazakh/Russian, he doesn't speak english "to himself," he doesn't form thoughts in english and it makes it impossible for him to truly say what he means or feels.

    For example, look at his interviews in his native language- it's COMPLETELY different, then what he says in english : "good boy ahh uh, I'm the best." The context in which he speaks is totally different, so with that said: everything GGG says in english interviews are NOT to be taken serious and to be taken with a grain of salt.

    I'm not going to bring up example, but statements about Ward, moving up in weight, etc.... The "controversial" ones, are most likely NOT what he truly meant to say and if you look at all of those statements, there was not one true answer/question in his native language. These statements were only in english every single time.

    Just a thought, for people who take everything he says literally and run with it. Canelo, for example always speaks spanish. Imagine if he spoke in English? This dude straight up ducked GGG in his native tongue, there's nothing lost in translation with that, it's as blatant as possible. Where as all the statements GGG has made that get nit picked, have been in english. Lets be fair about this and think logically for a minute. I strongly advise his team to start requesting translators and Kazakh interviews.

        He still can develop a better english, he isn't a superstar yet, so he can learn how to talk in some time.

          I say Abel Sanchez should stop doing interviews, not GGG.

            Ward said it best.

            "Their whole plan is for the trainer to talk tough, and the promoter to talk tough, while Golovkin sits on the sidelines and just smiles and waves. They tell him to smile and keep waving while they talk tough."

              +1.... That clown needs to shut up. He's worse than Roach ever was. He always has something to say that makes GGG look bad.

                  I can't tell if he's putting it on? Like tryna sound like Pac? To come across all . . . I dunno. . . "I want biggg fight, Not then, now big fight" . . . Because Pac was successful, and part of that was his delivery and slightly broken English which helped him come across as erm, I dunno. . . "Hummble?!" I'm not saying GGG sounds like Richard Dawkins when at home, but Ah I dunno. I should probably shut up, but some of his Mic interviews, sounds like a bit of a persona he puts on as part of the "Drama show"
