Comments Thread For: Gennady Golovkin Yearns For More Activity, Four Fights in 2017

[aboutfkntime]

dont forget 147...bwhaahahahahahahahaha

this man has the worst resume of anyone in anyone's p4p list

its pathetic....hell Yamanaka has better resume.....Danny Garcia has taken more risks and will be fighting thurman, he gets no love on here...even Loma in 8 fights has a better resume

GGG is talented but he is also a hype job with a resume that doesnt fit his skill set

take some risks already.....glad a fight with a top 3 middleweight finally materialized....all it took was years and thousands of excuses from his fans

exactly !

why would I look forward to another year of that rubbish ?

[aboutfkntime]

I think the fight with Jacobs shows Golovkin was always ready and willing to fight whoever, unless his name was Andre Ward..

it took fkn MONTHS !

..... that negotiation was like pulling teeth, and looked doomed to fail right up until the day that it was announced.

For the first time since 2012, unified middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin (36-0, 33 KOs) will be fighting just twice in a calendar year. Golovkin, who is scheduled to face Daniel Jacobs (32-1, 29 KOs) on March 18th at the Madison Square Garden, will try and rectify that in 2017.

I hope they make it happen. Jacobs in March, Saunders in June, Canelo in September and Charlo in December. I know I'm dreaming but what a year that would be. All the belts, all the respect and 40-0.

Who does Charlo face before then? I'd like to see Charlo vs. Eubank, but I know that wouldn't be likely.

Oh man, that would have the makings of a classic...

let's pretend that I am a Golovkin fan

so..... Gennady's desire to fight 4 times next year will almost certainly mean that I am forced to sit through 2-3 shht fights..... and I am going to call those fights exactly what they are, because enough really is enough..... they are shht fights

why gives a flying fat fk about Gennady's desire to fight 4 times next year..... 1 good fight > 4 shht fights..... not interested at all, unless the step up to fight Jacobs (LOL) is a permanent one

how can you guys get so excited about something that will likely turn out to be rubbish?

fighting 4 times in 2017 will likely mean that the entire boxing world must fit around Golovkin's busy schedule (LMAO)..... so I look forward to some more "astute" "negotiating" skills from Loeffler.....

..... you have 7 weeks to prepare, and you must accept the first shht offer we make, or we will move on..... because Gennady's date is looming LMAO

"they were the best fights we could arrange in that short time-frame"..... "nobody wants to fight Gennady", despite the fact that we expected everyone to drop what they were doing and immediately make themselves available..... "dey duckin doe", despite the fact that we used a date to leverage them into accepting a poor deal.....

NOT interested in watching the result of yet another " busy " Golovkin schedule..... Gennady needs to focus on making quality fights, not pumping out more of the same rubbish

shht, or get off the pot

GGG does seem to get all his fights signed for the entire year by the end of February??? Of course bums are a dime a dozen. Always find one past out at the corner liquor store or homeless shelter...

Two lanky punchers always seems to make for an interesting fight. Eubank's tendency to get sloppy + his faith in his chin will produce many tense moments.

[Shadoww702]

imagine if they had the resume of Tim Bradley, Danny Garcia, Khan, Ward, Cotto,Yamanaka, Pacquiao, Canelo......they'd be hyped as the greatest ever....best p4p..hell pac and ward are the only ones on most lists

Loma is has the talent and its sad in 8 fights he has a better resume than GGG...same amount of champions defeated....moved up has titles in 2 divisions and has shown he will take risks.....K2 and GGG need to get on board

I don't have to imagine I already know...

True. The size would probably be about even, but Eubank looks like he could fill out and go higher than Charlo could. I know they both punch with a lot of crispness which is what I like to see.

The difference is that Garcia chose to fight Salka. And it was a mismatch, Salka wasn't even from that Division. Shouldn't even be sanctioned.

Wade was the IBF mandatory. Golovkin had to fight him or get stripped. Wade was a MW and rated #3 by the IBF. Blame the IBF or Haymon if you want. Johnson was the mandatory and he got injured. Should we blame GGG also for that?

Hate is powerful eh?
