Why Golovkin doesn't get respect

[QballLobo]

I honestly think if it was up to GGG he would done what was necessary to get the fights he wants.
The problem is he has a manager and promoter that seem to severely overestimate his value.
It has caused him to lose out on legacy fights and the opportunity to build his value. Floyd had to make concessions to ODL even though he was doing solid PPV numbers at the time. Same with Pacquiao who stock was rising after the first two Marquez fights. For some reason GGG thinks he can skip this step and deserves star money when he doesn't bring anything to the table that PPV fighters can't get elsewhere.

[just the facts]

he doesnt get credit mainly due to racial issues. Thats the sad truth of it. Obviously there will be exceptions but have a think about the demographic of the most consistent haters of him on this site...

or maybe, just maybe, g string hasn't fought the caliber of fighters to deserve much credit. There always seems to be an excuse for g string not to fight legitimate opposition.

[just the facts]

He's a brawler.

FORGET ABOUT BOXING, HE'S MORE INTERESTED IN BRAWLING!

now if he would just get more interested in fighting legitimate opposition

Who doesn't want to se that? Seriously I would LOVE it.

I would pay to see him matched against someone who isn't going to get burrowed into the corner and handle his punches.

I would be genuinely curious to see what he would do, how he will box.

Is it so wrong I want to see that??

For you a much more to important question is, why don't sorry alts get any respect. Think about that one for a minute

[brettWall]

Same old same old, new alt, same senseless rhetoric. His mandatories duck duck duck, and we're supposed to hate the guy being ducked.

Only fighter most favored to beat him was Ward who fought at '68, if that isn't respect then what the fuck is it?

GGG does get respect its nelo who do nt get respect for dodging GGG.

GGG is PFP top 5, so its obvious he gets respect t, I doubt GGG cares aboiaboiut what his critics say. Most have GGG favourite against nelo so GGG is respected.

Maybe gggs critics are too full of themselves and high and mighty as if their opinion of GGG means anything to anyone! Just cos critics take the mickey out of GGG don't mean he's not respected. People take the mickey out of Floyd is Floyd not respected?

Guys, before you get angry and hit me with your purse to protect your man, try and be open minded and analyze, think about what I wrote. Too many of us feel this way.

The only way to describe Team G-String Divas as "open minded" is when speaking about the holes in their heads..

They don't have a problem making concessions (ask Hearn or Arum),they have a problem making unreasonable concessions like flat fees for the biggest bout in boxing.

So apparently he brings something Canelo can't get elsewhere, respect. When are you gonna make a decent post?
