If ggg was half the fighter Bud was.

[just the facts]

i know man, golovkin really needs to up his game, fighting daniel jacobs (consensus number 2 middleweight) and canelo alvarez (some peoples pound for pound number 1), seriously? Fight some legit opponents man! He needs to fight people of the calibre of diaz (lost to lamont peterson) and indongo (beat shot to **** lightweight ricky burns) like crawford has this year to gain respect.

I like how you convenietly leave out that g string didn't fight Jacobs until this year and hasn't actually fought Canelo yet and is kicking late 30s in the a$$. Passed on a Ward fight and bragged that they'd fight anyone from 154-168.

And here Crawford is, cleaned out his whole division. Undisputed! And all you can do is complain.

Must be another black (Crawford) and white (g string) issue for you.

He would be 2 1/2 feet tall?

Meanwhile, GGG is making three times as much money per fight than Crawford and stands to make way more versus Canelo than Crawford has earned in his entire career. Not a shot against Crawford because I like him, but your logic is flawed if you think Bud is more popular. Crawford is unable to fill venues outside of Nebraska.

Why can't people appreciate different fighters without feeling the need to praise one and put down another? It's almost as if two great fighters cannot co-exist in the same era.

How many champions vacated their belts to avoid Crawford?

How many champions vacated to avoid ggg?

One.

Canelo Alvarez.

And that's why Golovkin got the vacant WBC belt, which you were clowning him for in the post I quoted.

Hmmm my dumb ass just made a thread similar to this.. mb. It's not an exact duplicate but I'm not gonna lie, it is rather awkward 😐

Canelo Alvarez.

Well, he obviously didn't vacate to avoid fighting him if he's fighting him, right?

That kinda kills that logic

[Szef]

Actually, you could say two.

Felix Sturm refused to fight Golovkin when he was his mandatory and even paid WBA to keep GGG off him.

lil G won't challenge himself doe. Bud is better doe.

He obviously did.

You are aware of the fact that Golovkin was his mandatory at the time, right?
