Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Coach: Options Lacking at 168, No Reason To Move Up

[Madison Boxing]

Blahhhhh!!!! GGG will fight a 168lber at FULL 168 when Pigs start flying out of people's @sses!!! He's 34-35 years old. Only GTards ever believed that BS!

theres no need for him to move up, middleweight is heating up nicely

Yep GGG will stay at 160 ,he is not big and his fighting style dont match up with bigger opponents his team know it ,if big JMW come to MW it should be good devision again.

yep, demetrius andrade is big at JMW and will probably move up at some point, could see that being a massive fight a year or two down the line. eubank jr, saunders, jacobs, canelo are all big fights too

How is Jack, DeGale, and Ramirez not considered good options???? It would be a second division! GGG obviously is not being guided right. Waiting on Canelo is like hoping to get back with an old girlfriend who is already married!

No, he's saying Zurdo is attractive, and Degale in the UK, and they're interested in both as 168 one offs. Seems like my posters in this thread haven't read the piece

Everyone not named ggg wouldn't be the second part of the huge ppv. Neither will make big money without each other. Canelo could make decent pay days though.

But the issue is Canelo's reputation has been harmed by this, anyone who says it hasn't is blind.

And if he ducks him past this September, it'd be even worse.

Canelo's rep seems to be fine. 51K seats sold. 300K PPV with a nobody. GGG ain't even closeto approaching those type numbers. Even in these damn "unifications" that you and your kind love to circle jerk over.

Your lack of sarcasm is not surprising because of ***** up your a$$ lighten up a blind person could see that except for your uptight behind English teacher on a boxing forum a$$

Can I get one period or comma outta you? Just one please sir.

Ohh for SURE it hurt CanYellow badly. But casual fans have short term memory. He get's some fights with Andrade, Thurman, Brook and they would some VERY solid #'s.

50-60% to fight GGG and possibly ruin your investment is bad business.

When you could make

80% against very worthy and SOLID would make almost as much.

$100Million x 50% = 50mil.
$50mill x 80% = 40mil

K2 is asking too much. I care about the fight and REALLY want to see it!!! But NO WAY GGG get's 60%. He might as well ask for 100%! And Oscar and Canelo both to kiss his @ss.

Personally I think fair would be 70/30. The only condition would be Canelo BETTER bring Saunders belt.

Both Charlo Bros could EASILY make MW as well.

Thurman comes in fight at 168 and he fights at 147 but his height is more suited for 147-154.

Spence is too big for WW and can easily see him making MW.

[PunchyPotorff]

yep, golovkin has unfinished business at middleweight. lets not criticise a guy for fighting in his natural weight class, hes not even a big middleweight

Yeah I guess he wouldn't want a real challenge. SMW is a division he'll probably fight a few mid level fighters at in his final fights, after he loses it all at MW.

[Cinci Champ]

G's a middleweight and by a long shot the best there is ...why move up , when these pretenders find the balls to fight him he will smash them to pieces.
Idiots out there talk of Ward, Ward is a light heavyweight G, is a middleweight 160lb.....175lbs!! ...move on.

maybe because none of the potential pretenders are even halfway interesting fights. come on now it really would be different if there were fights but when the most interesting fight for ggg at 160 title or no title on the line is saunders thats not good for fans whether u root for or against ggg lets be honest. jacobs is a good fight i hope it happens but after that its a big blah fest
