Comments Thread For: 30-Day Weights: Gennady Golovkin 165.1, Daniel Jacobs 174.8

[Shape up]

GGG turned pro later so that's not a good way to judge. Some guy on here made a topic showing GGG was about the same size as Floyd around the same age.

I'm not saying GGG should move up for the sake of moving up. I'm saying he should move up for challenges. But GGG fans get offended if you suggest he move up to face a challenge. It's the double standards. Floyd was a smaller welterweight than GGG is a middleweight. Consistently 3lbs off the limit at the 30 day weigh in. Can you imagine Floyd saying he wants to unify at welterweight instead of fighting De La Hoya, Cotto, and Canelo?

GGG was willing to move down for a challenge to fight floyd at 154, where floyd held the belt, why didn't floyd take that challenge, yet you hammer him about moving up for challenges that are far less lucrative, is that a double standard in your eyes or not cobra?

lol GGG got outweighed by everyone at 30 day weighins including brook.


how the hell is he a big middleweight again?

He once said he'd fight anybody from 105 to 200+.

And I believed him....

.... OK, I didn't believe him, but I'll keep saying that I did because I want to pretend I have some sort of credibility and integrity when I moan, like I little b*tch, about Golovkin not moving up.

[vaynardevil]

fighting 168 champs probably make as much money as fighting BJS so why bother, he's still w8ing canelo anyway

[PACnPBFsuck]

Rest well GGG

[bojangles1987]

That's where Golovkin is every time. Dude has very good weight discipline.

What did GGG do at 154 to deserve a shot at the belt? What did he do to earn a shot at Floyd? Canelo, and Cotto earned their shots. Floyd earned his shot at Oscar

No

That's his puny lightweight legs.

He do got small legs. Can't believe Im asking your opinion on anything, but what's your opinion on that? Clearly with GGG it's allowing him to pack more muscle/energy on his upper half and have a ton of power, so it would seem to be the ideal boxer's body. But then again, Pacquiao had huge calfs that seemed to give him his power and foot speed/explosiveness. So does that mean it's actually better to have bigger legs? I'd be interested in knowledgeable opinions on this.

This is about staying in shape between fights.

He's a big middleweight that doesn't get fat between fights. Froch was big at 168, but never walked around heavier than 175.

[Verus]

GGG is huge doe!

If Golovkin is "huge," what does that make Jacobs who at this point is 9 lbs heavier?
