    Yeah It's GGG fault he should have offered him 95 - 5 split lol, it's the same thing that is happening with Rigondeaux guys just don't want to fight him and If they do want to fight him they want to drag them up to a weight division where they'd not be big enough.

    Oh yeah might as well say it Kell Brook weighed 176lbs at the 30 day weighin and he weighed more than GGG on fight night so good luck with using that one as an 'example' lol.

      Such a dumb move for Danny not to take the GGG fight. I was told by someone close to him (I know, I know) that they have their sights set on Golovkin because there is really nothing else out there for him. Now I'm wondering if they're full of ****.

        This sucks butt. Now Golovkin is gonna wind up fighting some security guard from Detroit because he can't get a top mw to fight him. The entire division is a joke.

          Well he wouldn't be the first. Canelo did the same, Eubank Jr. too.

          People can say what they want about Brook that he had nothing to lose, got well paid etc. etc. At least he had the stones to get in there, nevermind jumping up 2 weight classes to do it. Never hesitated when asked about it.

            that is because GGG will alter their life from the affects of the beating

              Agree, Brook showed courage, but was too small. Sorry about his eye socket, hope he recovers

                  We will **** on Jacobs and he will deserve it. He got a chance to fight the true middleweight champ and turned it down but what will those of us who want to see GGG tested do? Will we have to watch GGG in another mismatched fight?

Also, if Harmon wins a purse bid, GGG cannot fight on Showtime or PBC unless HBO granted him a one off (which would never happen).
                    Isn't GGG allowed one fight per year off HBO? He's done the Monaco fights before I think while under HBO contract, at least several of which weren't televised.

                      eubank, lara and any big name huge sized JMW that wants to step up.

                      If not then SMW it is.
