Comments Thread For: WBA Declines To Sanction Golovkin-Brook Middleweight Bout

[casheddie]

I swear Gilberto Mendoza from the WBA is pissing me off. First he says he will order the Jacobs fight for GGG if Canelo doesn't come through, then not only does he not order the fight, but he pulls this ****!

It's unacceptable that these sanctioning bodies do what they want and avoid consequences.

[JAB5239]

Brook will win the IBF and WBC titles if he beats GGG.

Of course. But what is the point of fighting for a fragmented title that was won in the ring to begin with? If you're against the fight than say it. If you're not against it then what is the problem putting the title up? I don't think Brook will win, but if he does he deserves that paper trinket by the sure fact he beat the man holding it. The ABC orgs are a curse on this sport.

None of that is pertinent to the point I was making - GGG didn't ask to be made super champ in order to avoid a mandatory, he was upgraded automatically when Geale was stripped.

All you do on here is lie. Geale was stripped 2 years before Golovkin was made super champ.

IBF is the best organization. They actually enforce mandatories
wbc shows favoritism
wbo let pacquiao be the champion for 3 years without ever making him fight a mandatory, so they have no credibility.
wba is the worst of them all. They have 2000 champions per divison.

??? HELL NO!!!

They DROPPED Fury because he wanted to rematch Klitz. And GAVE it up to CHARLES MARTIN who won it by Glazkov injuring his KNEE!!! Then got KTFO his next fight in 2 ROUNDS!!!!

They have Eduard Troyanovsky as a CHAMPION @140 LOL.
Jose Pedraza @ 135

None of those guys are even top 10 at those divisions.

Johnriel Casimero over Estrada and #1 P4P Chocolito

WBA is full of crap...

What really happened is that Golovkin/Brook handlers didn't bribe the "committee"

You caught that bi,.tch in a lie.


I noticed certain demographics have a problem with the truth.

I never lie here. But if I did, you two dumb cretins would never have enough brains to catch me out.

The WBA super title is supposed to be for unified champions only. After Geale was stripped for not fighting GGG, there was no WBA MW super champion till Golovkin was elevated automatically by beating Lemieux for the IBF.

Because it was against their rules. They stick to the letter of the rules not the spirit of the rule. That's why a lot of fighters don't like fighting for the IBF because they know they'll be bound to defending without much wiggle room.

You said "he was upgraded automatically when Geale was stripped", he wasn't you lied. Now you're lying again. He was elevated to super champion before fighting Geale, not when he beat Lemieux. Just stop.

Who did ask to be made super champ, Sturm ? To this day had GGG have fought Sturm pre Geale that'd have been the best win of his career, Sturm right off the back of the Zbik fight was at his career pinnacle for me. Nothing has surpassed or reached that same height as the Zbik win, the De La Hoya performance maybe excluding the bs result. I can understand why you'd be upset Sturm ducked him. Sturm has made a lot of money since then, for me it was a wise business choice as it was for Geale to face the ppv fight in Mundine, those were ducks, Danny came back to the table though, credit where it's due.

The point you're making is his interim title defnces count as title defences in his current streak ?
