Ward hadnt fought in 3 years and all the sudden he calls out ggg only AFTER ggg is contracted to fight lemiuex lol! Ward couldnt even fight kov without 2 tuneups. Ward would have needed a full year just to fight ggg. Its all bull. Ward used ggg to get these fanboys on his side and it worked. Ward is half eggplant so he knows the suckers better than anyone.Comment

the most accurate post in this thread.....
and the winner is.....
Danny Jacobs is only partly correct.
I cracked the Team Golovkin blueprint a long time ago.
boxing is all about matchmaking, and styles make fights
don't EVER forget that fact, and you will not go wrong
their strategy = standard risk/reward, just like everybody else..... and their preferred style is "available"..... as-in, they are simply playing to Golovkin's strengths, which is good management..... if Gennady can land on them, then he will fight them, because they back GGG's power to eventually break his "available" opponent down
e.g.
they will fight, in order.....
1) money opponents, who are " available "
2) name opponents, who are " available "
3) any no-hopers, who are " available ", for that 2mil chq
they will NOT fight, in order.....
1) notorious mover/spoilers, who will not be " available "
THAT is why Golovkin has not faced any genuine world-class opponents, and that is why they avoided making fights with Mora/Ward/Lara
that became obvious to me back in 2012 when Loeffler used every excuse in the book as he stuttered and stammered his way past a question from an interviewer suggesting that Mora would be an ideal opponent
an ex-champion who has clearly faded is the perfect opponent for an up-and-comer who is trying to establish himself on the world stage, that fight was a no-brainer..... and yet, Loeffler used half-a-dozen silly excuses to kill any talk of that fight, and then proceeded to discuss opponents who were much worse
I needed 1 genuine reason, because that fight was a no-brainer..... but all I heard were a bunch of silly excuses..... and the only reason why you would use a bunch of silly excuses, is because you do not have 1 genuine reason.....
and then, Loeffler did the exact same thing to Ward/Lara..... two other mover/spoilers who are notoriously difficult to look good against..... he used every excuse in the book to rubbish those unthinkable fights LMAO
I am not suggesting that Mora would have beaten Golovkin..... I am saying that Team Golovkin were unwilling to risk Gennady struggling to land on Mora, failing to put him away, and failing to look good..... or heaven forbid, the worst..... just like with Ward/Lara
they were all UNNECESSARY high-risk/low-reward fights..... so they did not happen
I know whats up, it is all about styles/matchmaking
nothing new here, boxing has worked this way for years
maybe they have taken Gennady's training wheels off, but personally I doubt it..... which is why they will not accept that FORTUNE from Canelo
they want to break Hopkins record, then they will make the Canelo fight..... which is fkn lame
Golovkin will suddenly forget that he is a businessman, and make that fight for "the good of boxing" and for "the fans"..... like Pacquiao did when he suddenly overcame his fear of needles
my house is a kool-aid free zone, seen it all before..... but you cvnts can drink whatever you like LMAO
don't be dumb, be smart.....
1) boxing is about matchmaking, and it always has been
2) the key to matchmaking is..... styles make fights
and once again, it has always been that way
Team Golovkin are taking the fights they want, and they are passing on the rest..... just like EVERYBODY else!Comment

it does not matter what has happened to the guy who ducked him
Strum ducked him for 2 years as the wba super champ!! it's not rocket science
Martinez ducked him - lou dibella was adamant it was high risk low reward that's why he never took it
Cotto beate Martinez and became lineal champion of the weight division - GGG was next in line as the no 1 contender for the wbc - he beat Rubio to be the next line.
Cotto made a deal with Canelo - GGG was apparently paid step aside money - with the promise he would fight the winner
Canelo won - became lineal champ and proceeded to duck GGG even giving him his belt!
Froch talked all this **** - post pics too big and too strong - what happened he retired!! then he comes back saying he would take the fight at 172 - he ducked!!
so cotto and canelo are middleweights but they both held the wbc belt and were lineal champs!! in canelo's case he still technically is!!
rip that apart MATEComment

Uh.....I guess. People drop belts to avoid "lil g" so you can't blame him for everyone running scared. Jacobs now has his chance to show the world just how overrated and overhyped lil g truly is, but if he gets knocked out like the rest of them, what does that say about Jacobs?Comment

DiBella is on record saying he never wanted Sergio to fight lil G.
Sturm vacated.
N'Dam vacated.
Cotto paid him step aside money. Smh at you claiming a guy holding a MIDDLE WEIGHT belt was not a middle weight.
Candelita dropped his MIDDLE WEIGHT belt and dropped to 154 to avoid lil g. Now this guy that you claim isn't a middle weight, is fighting at 164.5, LMAO. You're right, he'll be closer to a super middle weight than a middle weight after the Chavez loss.
I know you hate lil g but at least stick to facts and not opinions.Comment

Danny is still reaching. What is wrong with this guy. Golovkin has a perfect record, best in the history of the MW division. It's interesting that other than showing respect for Jacobs, Golovkin has been silent. The reason is that Golovkin is a true professional who shows respect for his opponents, at least until he gets them in the ring and pulverizes them. I expected better things from Jacobs. Golovkin will once again show what "calculated mismatching" is on fight night. Laughable.Comment
