Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Coach: Nobody From 154 To 168 Will Last The Distance!

Sorry I'm even SUPER generous and will start counting AFTER the Brook fight. You one dumb gullible person.

Anyone who thinks that GGG isn't going to eventually move up to 168 isn't seeing the whole picture. Canelo, Saunders, Jacobs, & maybe you can throw in Eubank are all fights GGG has to have before he can officially move up to 168. GGG is campaigning at 160. If he leaves the division now, there will always be the narrative at the back of people's minds that he didn't do everything he could to prove he's the best 160 (aka, they'll say he ducked those fights). But that's just 4 fights. After 4 fights, he will have no choice but to move to 168. And don't doubt that he'll fight Zurdo before he gets all 4 of those 160 fights. Those who love to throw shade on GGG as a boxer are just plain hating. The KO-streak proves his skills. And although the Brook fight is a mismatch, it's not a cherry-pick. It's the result of circumstances that are beyond GGG's control (guys who ducked him). Now, demanding he get better fights is not a bad thing...it's actually what all boxing fans should want. However, GGG can't force these guys into the ring...they have to sign on their own volition. But if you hate on GGG without ever acknowledging that he got ducked left-&-right by boxers (not just within his own division), then you are always going to be considered either a hater or a casual fan. This is boxing, folks! You let your fists do the talking. And until GGG gets unseated from his throne, no one can argue against results. If GGG truly was a hype train, why aren't there countless guys jumping at the chance to fight him? Food for thought...doesn't the same "results" argument apply to FMJ?

I predict GGG adds another KO to his resume come Saturday.

Football is in, so I'm out.

Dude, come on, the guy didn't get the Saunders fight because k2 LIED about how much their offer was. Now tell me, you're Saunders, you have the last belt that GayLoveKin wants, do you just take the offer? Or do you wait it out? It's also rumored that Canelo may fights Saunders at MW later, which would give him a whole hell of a lot more money.

I'm thinking of being VERY generous and giving you RIGHT NOW 3-1 odds in favor of GGG of Fighting ANY SMW at a TRU 168 lbs. After EVERY fight it goes down 1. You game you POS LIAR!!! At GGG rate of 4 fights a year your going to OWE me BIG Sam Hinkie..

I never agreed to that bet...but whatever...don't understand the name-calling, but whatever. Look, there's simply no point in GGG hanging around at 160 after those 4 fights...you can even throw Eubank Jr. out of those 4 if you wanted...who cares about a fighter who only wants to fight domestic level competition. Or BJS can be thrown out too if he fights Canelo & loses. So really, if things shake out, GGG will be primed to move up to 168 in 2018. By then, if he's still undefeated, only big names would be viable. So, there is potential that he could very well become undisputed at 168 as well. And that's taking all things positive. Even if he loses at any point from now until 2018, he'll still be able to box at world-level...that's more than enough to compete at 168. Barring some unforeseen career-ending injury, the guy could fight well into his 40's. He's taken very little damage his entire career. I have no doubt that he can perform well late into his twilight years.

Or....he could fight Zurdo before 2018...which would make the whole thing moot.

Saunders should have taken the fight if he's any kind of competitor, yes. Look, at every division, it's a disgrace that so many boxers aren't jumping at the chance to take 3 world titles from a guy who many believe is a "hype train." Additionally, BJS would have gained that much more fans if he could beat the "hype train." So yes, BJS should have taken the fight to prove to his fans & to himself that he's trying to be the best & isn't afraid of any boxer in his weight class. The guy wanted 6mil!...you know how much GGG & Lemieux each made in their ppv?...about 2 mil each. Where the h@ll is K2 going to find the extra 4mil to give to BJS?! You want GGG to fight for free? And BJS doesn't have quite the fanbase that Brook or Eubank has. So, in all seriousness, where was the extra couple million going to come from?! Pure economics there. Pricing yourself out of a fight is the same thing as ducking.

BJS's excuse for not fighting GGG right away was that he wanted a voluntary before taking the challenge. He hasn't fought since. So, you tell me, does that sound like a boxer who really wants to challenge himself? Getting the Canelo fight isn't a guarantee anymore for BJS...he might not get that fight. Simply because he balked at the idea of fighting Rosado to set up the Canelo showdown. So, Canelo could just pass him over (which I believe is going to happen; Canelo will likely choose the winner of Munroe/Rosado). What's the lesson to be learned here? BJS should have never passed on the opportunity to fight GGG (or Canelo)...and as long as BJS has the WBO, GGG will be looking his way at every turn. BJS gets no passes.

Then why did he fight house arrest Peter Pan Wade who had to bum $$$$ for Taxi rides and boxing gear???

You talk WAY to much about "Will", "What-If's", "Viable", "Potential", "Could", "Positive", "No dought" for my liking CLEO!!!! Wish in one hand and then sht in the other...Tell me which one fills up faster.

[Shadoww702]

2018??? LMAO!!! What made you choose that date??? Ain't happening. In 2019 either. GGG is 34 years old GTard.

Your DUMB!At 36 GGG moves to 168??? WOW!!!!

Most ppl would LOSE $$$ to make their dreams complete. Not BS GGG! And the fight STILL would of made $$$$ But K2 REFUSED to negotiate and offered $1.5 and ONLY $1.5. Didn't even try to make the fight. It was their way or the highway. Negotiated the fight in the media like ALWAYS to make Saunders looks bad and a ducker.

99% of EVERYONE when they start a collection and are only missing one piece to make the collection complete pay more...

He didn't choose Wade. The IBO chose Wade...and the IBO wanted to choose Tureano Johnson, but Johnson pulled out because of a hand injury. So, the IBO chose Wade. Don't get it wrong here. K2 didn't give a call to Wade...the IBO called K2 about their mandatory. And GGG fights his mandatories because he wants to become undisputed. He has to play nice with all the alphabet organizations in order to achieve that dream. Don't get the history wrong here.

What happened to you, Shadoww702?...you used to be such a respectful boxing fan. I'm not throwing shade on any of your favorite fighters. And I'm definitely not trying to get boxing fans mad. I'm just trying to tell it how it is. The history is in the research. I'm always taken aback when guys have such impossible standards for GGG, but don't enforce those same standards on other champions. So when I say something to set the record straight, you took offense? The goal was always to support the sport of boxing. So, you have a vendetta against me or something?

NVM...I figured it out. You're not the same Shadow702 from Vegas that I'm talking about. Carry on with your hating...

I gave you my reasons. It's up to you if you don't want to read it.

Okay. Go ahead and ignore that BJS wanted 6mil. And go ahead and ignore that K2 isn't a big enough promotion to offer such a big payout to a guy who's losing fans by the day. Go ahead and ignore that BJS even ducked fighting Canelo when he turned down a fight against fringe contender Rosado (6 losses). Why are you even defending BJS?! Shouldn't you be mad at BJS for pricing himself out of a fight?! Wait, is BJS your favorite fighter? Yikes. Nvm...carry on.
