      Yeah he should have moved after Canelo vacated tbh, no one wanted to see Brook/Golovkin, DeGale/Golovkin would have been a great fight Ramirez/Golovkin is a great fight, fighting Brook does nothing for him

          He's too much of a pussi to move up. I mean, he did just fight a welterweight..

            yes

            After Sanders, if he can't get Canelo in September, he'd have to cut his loss and move on ( and up).

              Here's my opinion on the matter.

              I really dont know if Golovkin is a punk or is going after records. If he ends his career after getting the trinkets and doesn't move up his career is pretty much useless.

              A win against Alvarez would be nice, but I've seen Canelo lose to a welterweight before.

              If he stays at 160, the only truly interesting fight I see is against Eubank jr who seems to be m.i.a.

              I believe Golovkin is a great fighter, but I really don't understand why he wouldn't challenge himself against the big guys at 168. If he's that good, why can't he?

                I think you either move up when you can't make the weight anymore ,like Canelo or Ward ,or when you've run out of goals at your own weight.The first is definitely not the case,the second can't be too far away.

                  There's nothing to move up to. He's in his mid 30s and not big for middleweight and 168 is a wasteland.

                  175 would be a joke. Sure he could do it, but it would be some one-off gimmick like Roy Jones at heavyweight.

                    if degale beats jack, then GGG should move up for a one-off. maybe also ramirez if arum is serious about making that

                    he can win those fights without gaining muscle imo and although i would still prefer canelo, jacobs and saunders, they're better than the other MW options
