you get that golovkin has been avoided by dudes who hold the lineal title, right?
cotto, martinez, and canelo blatantly avoided golovkin. i don't see you focusing on the right things.
that's like blaming a doctor who can't save a life for a shooting death
the tragedy [that golovkin can't / couldn't get fights with eubanks, ndam, quillin, jacobs, martinez, sturm, cotto, and canelo,] is what you need to focus on. you're getting the cause and effect mixed up.Comment

i dn't think so. 130 is a different animal, from 147 +. those guys get paid. they benefit from sitting out. 118, 126, 130 lbers peak early in life, and make a lot of their money from activity instead of big paydays and sitting out and waiting for other big paydays. you don't see many 130 lbers fighting late into their 30's. some of these welterweights and middleweights are extending their careers into even their early 40's when they cash out. it's just a different animal.
i dont' think lomachenko is going to be all that avoided. he's one of the only fighters in the world who has gotten on HBO consistently at those weights, and who looks to be a potential staple of the game for a while.Comment

Lomachenko was in a similar predicament at featherweight. He couldn't land fights with Frampton, Santa Cruz, Mares and all of the other PBC fighters because of promotional beefs.
What did he do? He moved up where he could find quality opposition with no promotional barriers. He could have parked at featherweight and cried about how Santa Cruz, Frampton, Rigondeaux and all these other guys don't want to fight him.Comment

I don't think it's him I think it's his team, but yeah this is an absolute joke at this point so it falls on him. Seriously give Ward 60%, give Canelo 75% fight somebody.Comment

I saw the fights live..havent watched them in their entirety for sometime.....Murray/sturm was a close fight. Murray was Martinez i remember being close, not some robbery
been years....if they were championship calibre, they would have went on to defeat a world class opponent and neither has since those fights
they a good euro level guys but never beat anyone in world title fights, or ever beat world consensus top ten contendersComment
